Remove it using the Add/Remove programs

Let me supply you with known good antivirus tools.

As for which free versus paid for Antivirus I have to leave this up to you but, I've always stayed with a free version, that use less resources and consumes less time in updating. This is my personal opinion and also with free versions of Antivirus, firewall is not included.

Fixlog.txt ?

Since we have removed some malicious files, how's the computer?
 
Ty ty

Thank you thank you very much! Sorry about the multiple posts, I have trouble focusing and with short term memory since stroke:heart:

Your doing fine.

How's your computer now?


What we can do now is run an online scan with Eset, for the time being it is our most trusted scanner.
Most reliable and thorough.
The settings I suggest will show us items located in quarantine folders so don't be alarmed with this, also, in case of a false positive I ask that you not allow it to delete what it does find.
This scanner can take quite a bit of time to run, depending of course how full your computer is.


Go here to run an online scannner from ESET. Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8 users will need to right click on their Internet Explorer shortcut, and select Run as Administrator
  • Note:
    For browsers other than Internet Explorer, you will be prompted to download and install esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe. Click on the link and save the file to a convenient location. Double click on it to install and a new window will open. Follow the prompts.
  • Turn off the real time scanner of any existing antivirus program while performing the online scan. Here's how.
  • Click the blue Run ESET Online Scanner button
  • Tick the box next to YES, I accept the Terms of Use.
  • Click Start
  • When asked, allow the program to install the "OnlineScanner.cab" activex control by clicking the Install button
  • Once the activex control is installed, on the next screen click on Enable detection of potentially unwanted applications
  • Click on Advanced Settings
  • Make sure that the option Remove found threats is unticked.
  • Ensure these options are ticked
    • Scan archives
    • Scan for potentially unsafe applications
    • Enable Anti-Stealth technology
  • Click Start
  • Wait for the scan to finish
  • When the scan is done, if it shows a screen that says "Threats found!", then click "List of found threats", and then click "Export to text file..."
  • Save that text file on your desktop. Copy and paste the contents of that log as a reply to this topic.
  • Close the ESET online scan.
 
ESET Scan logs

I ran the scans, but I may have inadvertently taken some action. I may have been on a different menu then you were referring to, it did not have ticks for "take no action but instead had a slide scale action, no action, which I chose. Found variant of Win32/Elex.as. Software said it "cleaned file because it contained body of infection"? Since I am out of my arena, I will turn this over to you to determine how badly I performed. The Smartscan log is too big to upload:red:

was the file you posted, come from the Eset Online scan?
From what I can tell it actually found a quarantine folder which we will remove in the end.

Tell me how the computer is now.

Tell me how the computer is now.

Juliet - No it came from Eset Nod32 AV 0 day tral software. When I did the Eset Online Scan it started without any input by me. Knowing that I needed to have options ("No action") I stopped scan looked for opportunity to alter setting,found none, then installed trial version. Ran SmartScan. Sent First scan results.
 
OK, I went back over the logs and right now things look good.

The scan produced the same file which is held in FRST quarantine.

You can keep the trial antivirus or you can uninstall it and chose one from this list.

Let me supply you with known good antivirus tools.

As for which free versus paid for Antivirus I have to leave this up to you but, I've always stayed with a free version, that use less resources and consumes less time in updating. This is my personal opinion and also with free versions of Antivirus, firewall is not included.

Let's remove the tools I had you download and their quarantine folders.

Are you working with a wireless mouse?, and if so is your touchpad listed as on?

Also, have you experimented to see if these issues still happen in safe?
 
Issues

I am not using wireless mouse and problem has gone away after Restart and Windows Update. Might of run out of memory? Just to be sure - I have not cleaned up the infected files found by ESET Will install tools above if problem returns in future
 
Good
The Delfix tool will take out the FRST tool and quarantine folder.

Use the computer for a while and post back to let me know if anything else pop ups.
