hey, i previously added a hjt log but got no reply so i followed instructions from similar posts i managed to delete a lot of stuff in safe mode mainly .dll files. I was having really bad problems with virtumonde and i could not access my c drive,windows security and i still cant access my user accounts.

I would be very grateful if you could take a look at my hjt log.

many thanks in advance

hi kingcrimbo69,

logs look ok. malwarebytes log is clean. looks like you got it all to me. any popups or problems browsing?
 
Hey wats up,No i dont seem to be having any problems except for the speed of my computer some times its really slow and others its fine so i thought there was something hidden but it seems to be o.k thanks very much for taking the time to help me out
 
hi kingcrimbo69,

as far as malware goes, it all looks good. glad to help.
cant get away without this:

My Top Ten
The Short Version:

1) Keep your OS, (Windows) browser (IE, FireFox) and software up to date.
2) Know what you are installing to your computer. Alot of software can come with add-ons. Do you trust the source?
3) Install, keep updated: antivirus and two anti-malware applications.
4) Don't click on ads/pop ups or offers from websites to install software.
5) Don't click on offers to "scan" your computer.
