See title. :)
Hi, sorry about the delay in replying. It took several tries to get the scan complete but I finally managed it today. The computer is working great at this point, I assume it's not hopeless at all....
Hi, I was very surprised to find that after running the FRST fix, I was suddenly able to set passwords and log into my MS account that I use on another computer. I'm not certain what exactly went...
Thank you very much for the fast reply. I'll answer your questions in order so as not to confuse responses.
I'll check on restrictions that may have been placed by the previous owners.

Hello again, as the title suggests, this may be hopeless but I'd like to see if there is chance that this machine can be salvaged.
First, a brief history of the computer in question. I was given the...
Thanks and I apologize for my delay responding. Aside from routine scanning, this represents the first attempt at cleaning my computer since I formatted and reinstalled the OS about seven months ago....
Hi, I guess the Title sums things up pretty well. I've been having pretty good luck until recently at keeping my computer running at least nominal, that changed recently and I'm hoping you can help...
:bigthumb:
Thanks for the updated info, I couldn't find any way to manually get the usb system working, they just returned to normal after the PE fix. I do have an account with wireshark community, just need to...
Thanks for keeping the thread open while I continue my education. I'm loving the noscript, learning fast and I'll never surf without it again. The links to POP and related stuff were much...
(Not old enough to retire in real life dang it) - It ain't all it's cracked up to be in the brochures, I recommend a significant lottery win or other substantial windfall first.

"Best way I can think of, people who have accounts with Nortons is to keep reporting it."
-Oh, I'm "all over" that advice. After 3+ hours of remote... Lets just say they are keeping in touch and...
Thanks for those links, I'll be making good use of that stuff. In particular the noscript looks exactly like what I need.
Norton of course flagged delfix as threat and quarantined it as a SAPE. I'm...
"The windows phone will be there till its completely removed."
Done, those two unknown accounts were creeping me out. I let the STM program do it for me. Not sure how exactly the phone program was...
I believe I posted the wrong Mbam log previously this should be the correct one.

About the logs, After running the latest FRST fix, (the script did its thing flawlessly, thanks again) I was able to download RK and Mbam through your links, run them without any problem and get the...
The site/software Duckware I mentioned in the previous post is without a doubt legitimate, my concern is that it has been modified as I don't recognize it at all. If anyone has info on the entry on...
I've attached the latest scans as well as went over #7 again, It is entirely possible that I'm getting something wrong but i believe its correct. I did, early in this process reset my FF, things got...
The info on the errors that you posted was very interesting, and would account for some whacko behavior I've been watching lately. I did recognize some of that from logs we recently dealt with....
About the title of this reply... no, not so much. When I realized what I was looking at (It's pretty ambiguous to a newbie) I ran a clean FRST, then started this thread as well as contacted Norton...
No worries on the response time, I'm very patient while getting free, good advice. The logs attached logs reflect a lot of fixes and the restarts were pretty involved, still not out of the proverbial...
Hi, (again) I've recently picked up a redirect that I'd like some help with, hoping I haven't worn out your patience and I can get your opinion on these logs. I pulled this off the Wireshark, maybe...
Wanted to thank you for your help again, the FRST fixes are priceless to me. I've run many scans, including root kits, everything comes up clean no matter what scanner or tool is used, I'm assuming...
This looks interesting, curious what you think. I did disable one of the Norton "Ask" extensions in my FF, that seems to have been a good thing to do. let me know if there are any other tools I...
Things were running suspiciously smooth so I delfixed and FRSTed again. There are some familiar entries, what do you make of this scan?

After a couple days of relatively "safe" browser use, this is the resulting FRST logs. I did, for a period of time, delete super cookies for the clients2.google site but they haven't shown up for a...
At this point I'll rerun FRST and see if any of the old redirects show up. Thanks
The title says it all, shall I delfix it yet?
It seems that the spyprotector I have unfortunately shares its name with another, less desirable program.

This scan was run without delfixing or any other changes, other than putting the last scan logs into a separate folder. I haven't used the VPN or spyprotector since the last round of fixes. Browsing...
The Mbar ran without any glitches but came up clean, nothing to post on that. A few noteworthy items I should mention at this point would be that I deleted my chrome browser some time ago since I...
The FRST fix had a hang up while running, had to run it twice to get the log.
The Rogue scan was clean so I didn't pos that log.

As we go through the process this time I would like to bring up several questions concerning different aspects of the infection/fix. After reading through other malware threads I see a lot of issues...
:cool: I can't believe how well this machine is running now, thanks so much. I'll check back to see if there are any more thoughts on this but things are looking pretty good.
Interestingly enough... I had to do a system restore (1st time ever on this machine)this morning to get it running. This brought me back to a point prior to the download, install and scan of the...
I should have formatted and reinstalled the OS on this machine last summer but I've been playing around with it, trying to understand the connectivity issues that came up last summer when I posted...
Since my problem obviously doesn't fall in the Malware category I should probably put an end to this thread, however I haven't due to the info I'm learning from all the links is so interesting, as...
I'm still going over the links you posted, a lot of good info there. While reading on removing the VB host network, I noticed a tip about going into device manager and disabling any VB hosts you...
Yup, I'm definitely on a learning curve here, I attached the wrong file, trying again.

Sorry, I forgot to attach the SS.
I do need to contact my Internet service again because when I look at the router firewall setting in the configurator page, it says, it is set too low. I'm not sure if the Norton firewall settings...
OK, let's see if I can help here.

I'm still working on my issue, but one more variable has come up. It appears my Granddaughter was on my computer last night, and there are some new quirks in the machine today... If you have time...
