Hello, warsawtom.
It's somewhat puzzling that the Nero applications do not appear in your Programs list, but continue to appear in the DDS log. This may not be an issue; however, before we close this thread, let's wait a few more days to be sure that the pop-up has not returned.
Meanwhile, let's run a couple more scans to see if they pick up anything else on your system.
1. Malwarebytes Anti-Rootkit (MBAR)
Please download MBAR from HERE.
- Unzip the contents to a folder in a convenient location.
- Open the folder where the contents were unzipped and run mbar.exe.
- Follow the instructions in the wizard to update and allow the program to scan your computer for threats.
- Click on the Cleanup button to remove any threats and reboot if prompted to do so.
- Wait while the system shuts down and the cleanup process is performed.
- Perform another scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Rootkit to verify that no threats remain. If they do, then click Cleanup once more and repeat the process.
- When done, please post the two logs: mbar-log.txt and system-log.txt. These will be located in the MBARfolder.
2. Farbar Recovery Scan Tool
Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool from HERE, and save it to your desktop.
Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.
- Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to the disclaimer.
- Press Scan.
- It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please copy and paste it to your reply.
- The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.
CHECKLIST: In your next reply, please post the following:
- mbar-log.txt
- system-log.txt
- FRST.txt log
- Addition.txt
- Let me know how your computer is running. Anymore pop-ups?
