    Dave, one of the tools we recommend not to run without supervision is Combofix, all systems and infections are different and what this program can fix on one system can damage another.

    As far as Malwarebytes, you have the free version, you can upgrade to the Pro version for around $20 or so, its just a one time fee and you get the license for it. What the Pro version has that the free version does not is a Protection Moduale, what this will do is that if you should wander into a bad website you will get a PAGE NOT FOUND and them a pop up from MBAM that it blocked a potentially bad site, I have this on all my systems and cant live without it, but to upgrade is totally your call.

    Correct about the firewall, the windows firewall blocks just incoming , third party firewalls block both incoming and outgoing.


    Free Firewalls, like AV, you just need one. Also wanted to point out depending on your router if you use one, most have a built in firewall, you would have to check if yours does or not. You can have one Software and One hardware firewall with no problems



    If you are into Physical Security , maybe you can help me get thru the darned Airport next time I fly

    Hope this helps and answers your questions, by the way when you run the clean up with OTL it will not remove MBAM and ATF Cleaner, you can keep them both, use them

    Thanks for all the help and info Ken.
    I do have some tips that help me in airports. I fly a lot.

    Fly southwest if you can. They have a program that allows A level members to bypass the lines at the ID check at many airports. It is just like being part of the crew. You walk up your own line with no queue, show your ID and go to the screening line. It saves me bunches of time.

    I have clothes I wear on airplanes. All cotton or wool, and leave the sweatshirt in the backpack. I like slip on shoes like Merrells http://www.merrell.com/US/en/Men-Footwear-Shoes-SlipOns

    I also have a travel belt, It is a black police nylon duty belt with Velcro instead of a buckle. Saves time.

    Leave the watch, rings, change and necklace in the backpack until after you pass security.

    When going through the x-ray area, put your backpack through before your shoes and coat so it is ready on the other end before your laptop goes through.

    Above all- be early- be relaxed and chill. Enjoy the fun of an airport. Get a latte or green tea chai and a new, overpriced paperback. Lee Child is a favorite.

    Thats it.

    Happy travels and thanks again.

    Say Ken, One more thing...Everything seems great now except for one item...I have an igoogle homepage with several gadgets like news and weather. They no longer load and my igoogle home page only has the chosen custom color and the search box. I am running..

    winpatrol
    Spyware S+D without tea timer
    Spyware Doctor
    Spyware guard
    Spyware Blaster

    Comodo firewall free version

    I also continually get this file type alert that continues about every 15 minutes despite choosing to ignore or accepting the change.

    Any ideas?

    That something that was removed earlier so deny the change . You can right click on Scotty and disable the notifications

    1. Please download OTM by OldTimer and save it to your desktop.
    2. Double click the icon on your desktop.
    3. Paste the following code under the area.
      Do not include the word "Code".

      Code:
      :Processes
      explorer.exe
      
      :Services
      
      :Reg
      
      :Files
      C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\eba.exe
      
      
      :Commands
      [purity]
      [emptytemp]
      [start explorer]
      [Reboot]
    4. Push the large button.
    5. OTM may ask to reboot the machine. Please do so if asked.
    6. Copy/Paste the contents under the line here in your next reply.
    7. If you are unable to copy/paste from this window (as will be the case if the machine was rebooted), open Notepad (Start->All Programs->Accessories->Notepad), click File->Open, in the File Name box enter *.log and press the Enter key, navigate to the C:\_OTM\MovedFiles folder, and open the newest .log file present, and copy/paste the contents of that document back here in your next post.

    I just got that Winpatrol message again. I denied it this time. I do have my igoogle gadgets back though. What is causing that message to reoccur...is it some google update thing?

    That file is no longer around , I would right click on Scotty and disable the background monitoring or uninstall the program. Its a great program but can drive you batty at times
