We will run ComboFix.
You need to
disable your
Antivirus and
Spybot Teatimer before running
ComboFix, as they will prevent it from running.
You should NOT use Combofix unless you have been instructed to do so by a Malware Removal Expert. It is intended by its creator to be used under the guidance and supervision of an expert,
not for private use. Using this tool incorrectly could lead to disastrous problems with your operating system such as preventing it from ever starting again.

A guide and tutorial on using ComboFix
Be sure to install the Windows XP
Recovery Console in case you have not installed it yet.
<== IMPORTANT
We need Recovery Console because malware damages a lot and causes an instable system - and because of that, it may happen that your computer won't be able to boot anymore. With the Recovery Console installed, there are extra options present to repair whatever malware damaged.
Also, even though you're not infected, the presence of the Recovery Console is a useful feature in case a computer won't boot anymore because of several other reasons. Read
here what you can do with the Recovery Console.
Extra note: After you have installed the Recovery Console - if you reboot your computer, right after reboot, you'll see the option for the Recovery Console now as well.
Don't select to run the Recovery Console as we don't need it.
By default, your main OS is selected there. The screen stays for 2 seconds and then it proceeds to load Windows.
