Yes, you should have allowed Spybot to 'allow' the changes. Better yet, let's disable it for the duration of this cleaning so we don't have to worry about it again.

Open Spybot Search & Destroy.

In the Mode menu click "Advanced mode" if not already selected.
Choose "Yes" at the Warning prompt.
Expand the "Tools" menu.
Click "Resident".
Uncheck the "Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of overall system settings) active." box.
In the File menu click "Exit" to exit Spybot Search & Destroy.
See this link for a tutorial

Also, on the last run as I omitted the instructions for you to insert your flash drive. We have more to do.

------------

Please copy this page to Notepad and save to your desktop for reference as you will not have any browsers open while you are carrying out portions of these instructions.

It's IMPORTANT to carry out the instructions in the sequence listed below.

***************************************************

1. Close any open browsers.

2. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

3. Insert your flash drive, or whatever us usually your G: drive

Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Save this as CFScript.txt

Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply.

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall

**When CF finishes running, the ComboFix log will open along with a message box--do not be alarmed. With the above script, ComboFix will capture files to submit for analysis.

Ensure you are connected to the internet and click OK on the message box.
A browser will open.
Simply follow the instructions to copy/paste/send the requested file.

Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.
