    Did a certain program in particular give you the "notice of QTCF.dll" and in what context?

    Does the computer show signs of infection, slowness is an indicator but not a given.

    Which security programs are installed, also please open Spybot Search & Destroy > Help > About and let us know the version and date of last definitions.

    Best regards.

    If you have iTunes/Quick Time installed you could post on the Apple forums.

    Doing so gives the build number and the date the program received the latest definitions.

    This topic was started 09-09-28 and you did not respond to the questions asked previously.

    Also, why don't you have an Anti Virus, or did you install another program after removing AVG?

    Hello lonelyone,

    No problem. I may direct you to the malware removal forum but first.
