Adware Removal Tool

The programme found 0 items, and told me to click the button to finish, I clicked it anticipating a log, but nothing showed up.

9-Lab Removal Tool

I downloaded the program, I ran the program, I updated, then rebooted. 9-Lab said it was up to date but couldn’t “connect to database”. I’ve attached an image to show you the error screen I’m getting. I downloaded the 64-bit version (as that’s what it tells me in the properties of “this PC”), and I can’t fathom what I’ve done wrong, I’ve uninstalled and re-installed the program followed the same steps and yet I get the same error pop-up. Anti-virus has been off throughout my problems.

No worries, this tool will sometimes not run on some machines for whatever reason.

Make sure and update these programs, listed by Security Check

Can you please post a fresh Hijack this log for me to review.


Then Tweak some services to boost performance a bit more.

Download easy service optmizer, save it to your desktop and unzip it there. Right click it and run as admin, then select Tweaked at the bottom. Then click on the rocket, this will turn off a lot of useless items.

You will however need to change one setting. Right Click on Wlansvc — WLAN AutoConfig, then select start service, the edit service. Make sure it is automatic across the board, as per the picture.

Clean your machine With Privazer

Then defrag it with Toolwhiz Defrag


Now reboot your machine and let me know how things are running.

I’ve done all you asked, rebooted the machine and it seems a little quicker to load everything, tried out a few games (may have got carried away and spent a bit more time than I was meant to . All Seems well, running smoother on some games!

Forgot to mention again, I never got the addition.txt from FRST, if you wish then post it. ( You posted two FRST logs instead of one FRST and one Addition) I do see some redundant files that need to be removed in your FRST, not malware just some trash that could be cleaned…If you are happy with the way the machine is running, then no need…
