Solved Can't get rid of Trojan Poweliks.Gen.2

[clarkgriswold]

I guess it's solved if in your opinion the machine is clean...I defer to your judgement.

At this point, should I remove/uninstall all the tools that I have downloaded?

Just to clarify, the programs you have listed in the previous post are preferred to the typical pay for, Antivirus/Firewall and Security suites?

I can't thank you enough for your help and taking the time to rectify this issue.

Is there any way that I can donate to the forum? - Scratch that, I see it above.

Yes, these programs will suit the average user just fine. I would not spend money on an antivirus unless I were running a business, or I work from home with my machine.

Hmm the link to download Delfix does not seem to be working.

 

[Malnutrition]

Link fixed.
No need to post that log, it just cleans up the tools we used and sets a new restore point.

 

[clarkgriswold]

I ran it and it cleaned up some of the tools but 6 remain.

Should I run it again or delete manually?
