Hi,

Is this computer really virus/malware free?
Logs are indicating that.

You could try to run IE with add-ons disabled to see if it makes any difference:
Click the Start button, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools, and then click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
 
Great, thanks. You've been a tremendous help. I guess there are only 2 more issues that I'd like an opinion on, if you can. Firstly, minimized windows are still going to the right of the tray by the clock. I've downloaded Firefox and it's still an issue. Secondly, the fan is still running and the computer is noticeably hot to the touch. Is that an indication that there are too many programs running?
 
Hi,

Right-click taskbar and select unlock. Then see if you can drag left boundary (on the right side of quick launch buttons beside start button) left. If the icons are still appearing on the right side of taskbar then attach a screenshot, please.

Access task manager (ctrl+alt+del) and on processes tab see what items have big CPU %-values (system idle process is always near 100, it can be ignored).
 
Unlocking the task bar fixed that problem, thanks.

As for CPU usage... nothing is more than 05, and most are 00 or 01. There are about 60 processes running total.
 
Hi,

Then that fan issue sounds a bit odd. Might be hardware related issue too. You could ask on some forum, like Tech Support Guy, that has area for general computer issues too.

Before that, let's remove tools we used.

Now lets uninstall ComboFix:
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now copy-paste Combofix /uninstall in the runbox and click OK

Please download OTC and save it to desktop.
  • Double-click OTC.exe.
  • Click the CleanUp! button.
  • Select Yes when the
    Begin cleanup Process?
    prompt appears.
  • If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
  • The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself.

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.
 
Due to inactivity, this thread will now be closed.

Note:If it has been four days or more since your last post, and the helper assisting you posted a response to that post to which you did not reply, your topic will not be reopened. At that point, if you still require help, please start a new topic and include a fresh HijackThis log and a link to your previous thread. Please do not add any logs that might have been requested in the closed topic, you would be starting fresh.

If it has been less than four days since your last response and you need the thread re-opened, please send me or MOD a private message (pm). A valid, working link to the closed topic is required.
