    I think it would be wise to run the last one requested.

    Also, Microsoft is pushing out a few new windows updates over the last few days.

    I meant to answer this earlier and forgot, no, these tools coincide with each other for specific scanning. They are updated differently and search different areas of a computer.
    When finished we will remove them and related quarantine folders.

    Let's see if there are any startup items we can disable to improve performance.

    Go here to download HJT
    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/hijackthis/
    • Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
    • Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
    • By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.
    • Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Addition Tasks dialogue.
    • Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
    • Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
    • At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.
    • Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
    • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
