Thanks for any guidance.

Welcome to Malwarebytes!!!

In my past life, i was a mind reader, but not the case now. Please explain what's going on. Thanks

Thanks for response (in your past life you would already know I was grateful for any feedback...)

Sorry about the lack of background info.

Friend's computer had some nasty stuff including the TDSS*.SYS hidden device, etc. Was unable to open MBAM setup, HJT, Avenger, Stinger, etc. It was putting an autorun.inf and hidden m.exe file on any media (USB, etc) attached to it. Couldn't run any browser.

I got the hidden device disabled (eventually)
deleted the system32\drivers TDSS file using BartPE
deleted a system32 dll something like fabbccacbada.dll using BartPE
ran AdAware from BartPE (124 items detected/removed)
ran ClamWin from BartPE (30 items detected/removed)
(found this site)
installed MBAM (renaming install)
ran MBAM (8 items detected/removed)
ran Avira (clean)
ran MBAM again (clean)
ran HJT to post a log as recommended in instructiions

I already took out a few toolbars and a few items running from "f:"

Just wanted to see if there was anything in HJT that might still pose a hazard. This is the third time I have had to deal with this kind of issue since the Christmas holiday.

Thanks for any insight...

The log is clean
