I would recommend the following :
Open CCLEANER, goto OPTIONS then MONITORING and turn of ALL monitoring
Then goto TOOLS and STARTUP (Within ccleaner still) and DISABLE everything except for the INK MONITOR and both AVG's (You can always enable anything you want to start up later once the machines 'fixed')
Reboot
Download MALWAREBYTES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/
UNTICK the trial when installing
Open malwarebytes. After its updated goto SCAN and click START SCAN
Whilst thats running go back to CCLEANER TOOLS UNINSTALL and save the text of all the programs installed on your machine and post here
Then look at the TOP of ccleaner and post the RAM (Mines 8.0GB RAM for example)
When MALWAREBYTES has finished, click SAVE RESULTS (Bottom right), select txt and post the txt here (Or dropbox again). remove anything malicious
reboot
Download HIJACK THIS (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION') and install
http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/
Whilst pressing the SHIFT key, RIGHT CLICK on the hijack desktop icon and select RUN AS (ADMINISTRATOR)
Select MAIN MENU
Click DO A SYSTEM SCAN AND SAVE A LOGFILE (Takes seconds) then post the log so we can see whats running
(do NOT do anything else with Hijack but scan and post the FULL log)
Hope I've followed this correctly...

Uninstall AVG TUNEUP (Its basically malware):idea:0
-
Do as post 12 said- backup and restore.
An even better idea is backup your documents, files and then install a decent operating system such as Linux Mint 17.2 cinnamon edition. Less hassle, runs smooth and no problems with malware, trojans etc.0 -
