How is computer doing?

Download OTL to your Desktop.

  • Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
  • Click the Scan All Users checkbox.
  • Under the Custom Scan box paste this in:




  • Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
  • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows: OTL.txt and Extras.txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
  • Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post them back here.
I know I have two AV installed. I installed the AVAST just before I got your latest reply about using ComboFix. It seems that AVAST now have the option to install it either as a full AV program or as a Back-Up to my main AV (which is the AVG).

I just wanted to use a different AV to scan and see what it throws up and got a clean bill of health. (But I did disabled all AVG modules except the RootKit model that can't be disabled when I ran AVAST).

As for how my laptop is behaving now, it seems that on some pages of websites (like this reply page), the page is extending way outside my monitor. But on the first Home page of this site, it fits within the laptop monitor view. So something must have changed and sadly make it more inconvenient to use.

When running OTL, the scan freezes at Scanning FireFox Setting....I ran it twice (after uninstalling AVG with AVG Uninstall Tool) with the same results. Perhaps I misunderstood your instruciton? Do I run it first time without pasting the text you asked me to copy and paste and then run again with the text pasted or just run it once with the text pasted ? I did it with the text pasted and it hang at FireFox setting.Your clarification on this will be much appreciated. Thanks.
