    No problem

    You can delete DDS and it's logfiles - DDS.txt and attach.txt - and also roguekiller (including the folder RK_Quarantine and the file(s) RKreport
    [*]_****.txt)

    Simply right click and choose delete.

    • Right click AdwCleaner.exe & choose "Run as administrator" to run it.
    • If AdwCleaner prompts you an update is available, click Cancel
    • Click Uninstall.
    • Click Yes to the prompt.
    • AdwCleaner will close and uninstall itself


    Then create a restore point and delete the old ones.

    Create a restore point: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows7/create-a-restore-point

    Delete all but the most recent restore point:

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows7/delete-a-restore-point

    I've done all of the above, waddler, so hopefully everything's in order. I've certainly learned a lot, thank you. I hope not to make the same mistake again.
