    Thank you, would you like someone to take a look at the system which might locate any issues even if not malware related.

    If so, please see the Malware Removal Forum sticky which includes guidelines in post #2 on how to provide the logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and aswMBR, which are the logs used in the preliminary analysis.

    Then start a new topic in that forum providing those logs so a volunteer analyst can take a look, also provide a link back to this thread please.

    Best regards.

    You posted in the correct forum. In general all items found by the RootAlyzer are not necessarily malicious. Sometimes even legitimate software uses rootkit technologies.

    The log alone isn't waving a flag which is why I asked,
