Hope this makes sense to someone and that I've done the right thing!!! Lol, Flis x

Uninstall in the control panel if not required:
Google toolbar, Kodak Share button app (others who are better at this will definitely say what else can go)

gets flagged up so I would download and run malwarebytes:
Download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.50 - FileHippo.com
Remove everything it finds and post log here.

After all this I think it would be wise to change your antivirus from AVG to something else.

flis21

I agree about changing the antivirus, the malware thing has already found 31 infected objects!!!
If I get rid of the Kodak thing will I still be able to get the pics off my digital camera? That was the software that came with it. Sorry i am a complete idiot about all this technical stuff!! Thanks, Flis x

The_Grandmaster

It's good that malwarebytes is finding things (or bad that your computer is infected but anyway!)

I assume your Kodak is a digital camera with an SD card? If you connect it to the computer and go to My Computer, then SD card, you should be able to copy the pictures from there. Leave the Kodak programs for now and don't try the above yet - I don't want infections spreading if it's a possibility.

re kodak easyshare/listener, you need to stop it running at startup using msconfig, it doesn't stop you running it manually when you need it - just make a note of the exe name and location, and if you want create an icon to point to it

uninstall Searchqu

download avast free
uninstall avg
install avast free http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/ (if prompted to install any optional google toolbars/chrome etc during installation, untick the option)

The best way of cleaning up a slow or badly infected machine is to backup all your data to an external drive, and do a factory restore using the factory restore partition (see manual or manufacturers website) or Windows disc. The alternative is to do it manually as follows (the list may look daunting, but should take less than an hour of effort (apart from virus scans)) :-

__________________________________________________

Unless you need them running all the time, use the startup tab in msconfig (start,run,msconfig) to disable these items from running at startup (they can always be run manually if needed)

Download and install cleanmem http://www.pcwintech.com/cleanmem (download direct download). In windows explorer, go to c:\windows\tasks, click on the clean system memory task, schedule, advanced, and change it from every 30 minutes to every 5 minutes, then ok, ok. Find c:\program files\cleanmem\mini_monitor, run it and right click the icon (near the clock) to set it to automatically run at startup, show percentage to keep an eye on your ram use. If your machine is still slow after doing everything listed, post your commit charge and installed physical ram details from task manager performance

This is a general guide on cleaning up infections and speeding up pc's https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2436849

If you haven't all ready done it, Install Malwarebytes and do a FULL (not quick) scan (after updating it), fix anything found before closing, otherwise you'll have to do it all over again. You may get prompted asking if you want to run the free 14 day trial during install, I suggest you decline this offer, as it will slow things down. If anything was found reboot the machine before continuing. http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/

If you know you have just been infected, with a fake antivirus for example, running system restore to a previous restore point is often the fastest way of getting your machine working again

Making any changes to a PC setup always comes with a slight risk of something going wrong, the worse case scenario is an unbootable PC - ideally you should have got a backup of important data on dvd or external disk, and a disk image backup (http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.asp) or windows disc/factory restore partition available before you start. In the unlikely event that anything does go wrong, post on another pc for advice.

delete the googleupdate task from c:\windows\tasks


If you want a speedy machine, Use windows firewall and replace your antivirus and security software with avast 6 free - (a fast and lightweight virus scanner with good detection rates), http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/ (if prompted to install any optional google toolbars/chrome etc during installation, untick the option)

This is a list of (or remnants of) security software evident in your log, you may wish to uninstall these in Control Panel (add/remove programs or programs/features) to keep your PC running smoothly, too much overlapping or bloated security or useless tuning software can have a drastic effect on performance - always leave one resident scanner running (eg avast/avira etc)
