Yes, HOLY COW! run ESET again and check box for removal...sorry forgot that bit of instruction.
Also to be safe, since I completely forgot to have you run ESET again, Updating MBA-M and run one more scan with it too. If it finds anything then select all and Remove Selected. If something shows in either log, ESET or MBA-M post back here with those.
Then reboot, and to remove combofix do the following:
- Click START then RUN
- Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"
Honestly...go for it! I used to like AdAware a lot, but the newest versions, in my opinion anyway just are not near as good as the Old AdAwareSE. Plus the new one puts this service in there that runs all the time but does absolutely nothing unless you have the paid version.I'm thinking about removing Ad-Aware and using MalwareBytes, what do you think?
I really like MBA-M. It finds much more than most programs, has updates sometimes several times a day. I use it to scan at least weekly and ALWAYS UPDATE before each scan. For regular weekly scans I use the Quick Scan. If something shows in the Quick Scan then do the Full System scan just to be safe.
I would also recommend that you download, install, update and enable SpywareBlaster. Truly a MUST HAVE program, I wouldn't run my computer without it. It is FREE and it DOESN'T run in the back ground. It protects the computer against spyware, malware, hijackers, tracking cookies, and has a superior Restricted Sites portion that restricts dangerous and unwanted website. Just check for updates manually weekly, sometimes it has them, sometimes not, but if it has updates then install them, enable them and then just shut down the program.
