I really appreciate any help or guidance you might be able to give me in regards to my infected computer. I cannot get MWB to run or update, nor will Hijack This or ComboFix run.
The initial clue that my computer was infected was that, google links were not opening properly in new windows in addition to strange music playing in the background. I did find a process running called a.exe, when i stopped that process the music stopped. I then I did a windows search for a.exe and found nothing, so I tried a search with hidden files and found it in the system folder somewhere, I trashed a.exe so the music has stopped but the google linking problem persists. Upon reflection this may not have been the best course of action (i'll let you be the judge) but it seemed like a good idea at the time since the anti-virus and spyware programs I had at the time weren't doing the trick. I was using AVG Free and Spybot. Both have been removed to the best of my ability (uninstalled), i don't see their processes anymore in the task manager.
I have installed Avira AntiVir Personal and was able to update that and do a scan. Several rootkits were found, however, the google linking problem persists and I am still unable to run MWB, Hijack This or ComboFix. Windows Defender also won't update and crashes on launch. So from what I have read on other peoples posts, it seems like I am still infected, and I could really use some expert advice!
I have run DDS and Gmer and have logs from both of those which I will paste and/or attach below. I have also run RootRepeal to see if there were any CLB Rootkits (which there weren't). Many thanks in advance!!
