Hi,

I seemed to have uninstalled combfix, however I still get the comboFix related error on bootup: "Windows cannot find 'c:\combo-fix\combofix.bat'...."

It sounds like an old registry entry that may be causing it but I cannot see it in your logs. Are there any other user accounts?

During the run of combofix /u I had an error:
cannot remove combofix.....
but it seems to be gone

Do you remember the end of that sentence? What was the reason it gave for not being able to remove combofix?
Also, an old copy of combofix may not have been properly uninstalled. C:\
327882R2FWJFW belongs to Combofix, not a harmful item but AVG cannot differentiate the good use of hidec.exe from the bad use. The AVG report indicates that Combofix was not perhaps properly uninstalled, not necessarily now, perhaps at an earlier time. I suspected that and that's why I was asking if you had an older copy still installed.
Delete the
Combofix and
Combo-fix from your desktop if still present. Create a fresh Restore point (instructions below) just to be on the safe side, and then delete C:\
327882R2FWJFW. Also delete these folders, if present: c:\
combo-fix and C:\
Combofix
Click Start Menu > Run > type (or copy and paste)
%SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe
Press
OK. Choose
Create a Restore Point then click
Next. Name it ( something you'll remember) and click
Create, when the confirmation screen shows the restore point has been created click
Close.
==============================
Restart the computer and if you're still getting the Combofix.bat error, post a fresh HijackThis log from every user account in the system.
