ComboFix is not a general purpose cleaning tool. It should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained and continues their education in its use. :euro:

If Spybot-S&D picked up tracking cookies, which program detected vundo?
When Spybot-S&D was last updated.
Also what is your operating system please.

Hello acko64,
If you would like someone to take a look at the system you can start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum and a volunteer analyst will advise when available.
First see that forum's FAQ which also includes instructions on posting a preliminary DDS log: "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance)
In your new topic please let helpers know how the computer is running and that,

Hi acko64,
It is also possible that the vundo.a4 detection by stopzilla could be a false positive. Stuff happens.
Once you have installed a licensed copy of Windows remember to keep it updated! It is your first defense against malware infections.
