Hi and welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help.

Although you already have Malwarebytes on, I would like you to follow everything one step at a time and in the order it is listed, that way we will have a better idea where to go from there, so please follow this. When you get to step 4, because you already have Malwarebytes, I recommend uninstalling your old version, and downloading as per instructions the new version.

 

Your computer could be infected with Malware.

 

• Malware is software designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system without the owner's informed consent.
  It is a combination of the words malicious and software.
  The expression is a general term used by computer professionals to mean a variety of forms of hostile, intrusive, or annoying software or program code.
  

 

• Required Cleanup Steps
  
  1. Disable the Spybot Search & Destroy TEA TIMER if you use it and if it is enabled
     
  2. Run a Temporary file and cache cleaner (ATF)
     
  3. Run 2 Anti-Malware scanners (Listed Below)
     
  4. Run an Online Anti-Virus / Anti-Malware Scanner (Listed Below)
     
  5. Clear out old System Restore points
     
  6. If continued Malware type activity is present you may be asked to post a TrendMicro™ HijackThis™ Log file, do not do so unless requested.
     

   

The reason to run multiple scanners is to ensure that no single scanner is missing something.

The time it takes will vary depending on your system and your internet connection speed.

Typically the SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes scanners will take between 10 to 90 minutes.

The ESET online scan should take between 1 to 3 hours.

In most cases, these scans will suffice to clean and disinfect your computer.

Heavily infected systems or slower PCs can take much longer to scan and clean.

If required this is the download link for TrendMicro™ HijackThis™

I am no expert on reading hijack this logs but it seems that you have loaded your pc with so many downloaders, toolbars, etc that it just seems inevitable that you are going to keep getting this kind of problem. I am sure others will have comments on the specifics.

 

What is your purpose for using Daemon tools?

[RandyL]

What do you mean it didn't work? Did you run all the scans? Did they find anything? If so what did they find? If so did they remove the infections?

 

Based on this thread and a previous thread I fail to see the need for all these download managers and you keep getting reoccuring infections.

 

If the guide didn't help then I suggest to remove all the uneeded crap before running the scans again.

 

1. Dump the download managers. All of them.

 

2. Dump all games, movies, songs, software or screensavers you downloaded.

 

3. Dump any programs that have screensavers attached to them. Webshots for instance if you have it.

 

4. Dump your torrent programs and keep them off for good.

 

5. After all that update all the programs from our guide and scan with all of them again.

 

It is obvious where your problems come from. There is no alternative to keeping your system clean. Unsafe habits will only lead you astray again.

 

By the way what AV do you have? We see a lot of infections due to a lack of one or a poor one. For instance we do not recommend AVG. But an AV alone will not help.
