Very well.
In that case, leave those Avast settings alone.

Very good :)
Those findings are in some of your restore points, which we're about to reset.


Your computer is clean

1. We need to reset system restore to prevent your computer from being accidentally reinfected by using some old restore point(s). We'll create fresh, clean restore point, using following OTL script:

Run OTL

• Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following:

:OTL
:Commands
[purity]
[emptytemp]
[EMPTYFLASH]
[CLEARALLRESTOREPOINTS]
[Reboot]

• Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  
• Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
  
• Post resulting log.

2. Now, we'll remove all tools, we used during our cleaning process

Clean up with OTL:

• Double-click OTL.exe to start the program.
  
• Close all other programs apart from OTL as this step will require a reboot
  
• On the OTL main screen, press the CLEANUP button
  
• Say Yes to the prompt and then allow the program to reboot your computer.

If you still have any tools or logs leftover on your computer you can go ahead and delete those off of your computer now.

3. Make sure, Windows Updates are current.

4. If any Trojan was listed among your infection(s), make sure, you change all of your on-line important passwords (bank account(s), secured web sites, etc.) immediately!

5. Download, and install WOT (Web OF Trust): http://www.mywot.com/. It'll warn you (in most cases) about dangerous web sites.

6. Run Malwarebytes "Quick scan" once in a while to assure safety of your computer.

7. Run Temporary File Cleaner (TFC) weekly.

8. Download and install Secunia Personal Software Inspector (PSI): http://secunia.com/v...ning/personal/. The Secunia PSI is a FREE security tool designed to detect vulnerable and out-dated programs and plug-ins which expose your PC to attacks. Run it weekly.

9. (optional) If you want to keep all your programs up to date, download and install FileHippo Update Checker.
The Update Checker will scan your computer for installed software, check the versions and then send this information to FileHippo.com to see if there are any newer releases.

10. Run defrag at your convenience.

11. Read How did I get infected?, With steps so it does not happen again!: http://www.bleepingc.../topic2520.html

12. Please, let me know, how your computer is doing.

Internet Explorer still very sluggish at initial launch (I noticed that Firewall gets turned off and then back on before proceeding to Home Page.

I went ahead and made the a.m. changes to Avast WebRep, but still same delay at launch..




but! Machine is Clean!!?!!

Broni, you da man!!!

[Broni]

You're very welcome

How is Firefox compare to IE?

I noticed that Firewall gets turned off and then back on before proceeding to Home Page

How exactly do you see this?
Same issue, when starting Firefox?

[yu677gh]

on IE:
as the home page is waiting to load (about 30 seconds into waiting), windows balloon pops up warning that firewall is off, then 10-15 seconds after that, Firewall comes back on and finally Home Page loads (google)

On firefox:
no lag on launch. no firewall off/on activity

[Broni]

Try to uninstall IE8.
It'll revert itself to IE7.
See, if you have same issue then.

Are your Windows updates current?

[yu677gh]

Ok, will do.

Broni, again, thank you --so very much-- for your help with eradicating this virus.

[Broni]

You're very welcome
