==== End Of File ===========================
Looks good. Are you still noticing any problems? If not, it's time to secure your system to prevent against further intrusions 
THESE STEPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT
Let's reset system restore
Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected. Please note you need Administrator Access to do clean the restore points.
1. Turn off System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
2. Reboot.
3. Turn ON System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
NOTE: only do this ONCE,NOT on a regular basis
Now lets uninstall ComboFix:
Please download OTC and save it to desktop.
Note: If you receive a warning from your firewall or other security programs regarding OTC attempting to contact the internet, please allow it to do so.
UPDATING WINDOWS AND INTERNET EXPLORER
IMPORTANT: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer to protect your computer from the malware that is around on the Internet. Please go to the windows update site to get the critical updates.
If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof, go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update.
Make your Internet Explorer more secure
This can be done by following these simple instructions:
From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
Click once on the Security tab
Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
Click once on the Custom Level button.
Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
The following are recommended third party programs that are designed to keep your computer clean. A link as well as a brief description is included with each item.
Just a final reminder for you. I am trying to stress these two points.
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!! Make sure you do this about every 1-2 weeks.
Make sure all of your security programs are up to date.
Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
Once again, please post and tell me how things are going with your system... problems etc.
Have a great day,
Blade

The following are recommended third party programs that are designed to keep your computer clean. A link as well as a brief description is included with each item.
- hosts file:
- Every version of windows has a hosts file as part of them.
- In a very basic sense, they are used to locate webpages.
- We can customize a hosts file so that it blocks certain webpages.
- However, it can slow down certain computers.
- This is why using a hosts file is optional!!
If you decide to download the hosts file, the slowdown problems can usually be avoided by following these steps:- [*]Click the start button (at the lower left hand corner of your screen) [*]Click run [*]In the dialog box, type services.msc [*]hit enter, then locate dns client [*]Highlight it, then double-click it. [*]On the dropdown box, change the setting from automatic to manual. [*]Click ok
- Run Secunia vulnerability check here and fix its findings. Check should be run once or twice a month.
- Get Anti Virus Software and keep it updated - Most AVs will update automatically, but if not I would recommend making updating the AV the first job every time the PC is connected to the internet. An AV that is using defs that are seven days old is not going to be much protection. If you do not update your anti virus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out. Good free antivirus programs are:
Antivir
Avast!
Good commercial ones are from:
Kaspersky and
ESET - Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For more info, check this webpage out.
If you don't have a 3rd party firewall or a router behind NAT then I recommend getting one. I recommend either Online Armor Free or Comodo Firewall Pro (If you choose Comodo: Uncheck during installation Install Comodo HopSurf.., Make Comodo my default search provider and Make Comodo Search my homepage and install firewall ONLY!). Both providers have support forums that help with configuration related questions.
Just a final reminder for you. I am trying to stress these two points.

Am working on my latest assignments...thank you...computer is running much faster...no problems noted so far...should i install my norton that i have access to now or when i'm done with the assignments? i don't think any firewall is set up as it gives me that msg everytime i reboot....i don't even know what firewall is.....will norton automatically take care of the firewall thing or is that something i need to do?
Yes, the Norton is the one that I have the license for. I did all that you said to do and installed Norton. A few questions:
I still have several items on my desktop from our working together....should I delete these? If so, do I also delete them somewhere else other than just right clicking on the desktop and choosing delete?
Were you able to see what my virus or whatever it was was called and/or where it came from?
In the past, my system would ask me if I wanted to update Java when I would first turn it on...should I be saying, Yes, to that?
Is one way better and safer than another to view email? On this system, I go to www.att.net and view my email but I don't like it that I can't preview the email on that same screen...I have to click on the subject and open it to read it. On my pc, I have outlook express I think....and that allows me to see the message on the bottom half of the screen by only highlighting the message. I like that better but don't know how to put it on this computer and whether it is recommended one way or the other.
I thank you so, so, so much for all your help. You are amazing and a very giving person! Thank you for all you do. Is there anywhere I can post a thank you or a kudos or anything that would help you with anything? I would love to do that for you. I will also be making a donation to spybot!
Much thanks and gratitude,
Stacey

Hi,
. We have this topic reserved for that.
Those email related questions are more like general computing related. We deal with malware issues here only. Help with email issues can be asked for example at TechGuy.
What are the remaining items there after ComboFix has been uninstalled and OTC run?
At least one of infections there was Conficker worm. Of possible reasons for getting infected you may read here.
Yes, it would be easiest to keep Java up-to-date that way.
You're welcome

Hi,
Is spybot search installer file from web or shortcut to the program itself? If it's the first mentioned then it can be removed.
Of those other listed ones I'd keep ATF Cleaner and run it occasionally to get rid of temporary items.
