Thanks Steven, :)

It will require more than one round to properly clean your system. Please stay with me until given the 'all clear' even if symptoms seemingly abate.

Read through this entire procedure and if you have any questions, please ask them before you begin. Then either print out, or 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.

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

Download ComboFix from one of these locations, but rename it to nashy.exe before saving it to the desktop:

Link 1
Link 2
Link 3

* IMPORTANT- Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop

====================================================

Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications as it will interfere with our tools and the removal.

Please open the AVG 8.5 Control Center, by right clicking on the AVG icon on task bar.

Click on Open AVG Interface.
Double click on Resident Shield
Deselect the option to "Enable Resident Shield."
Save changes, and exit the application.
To re-enable AVG 8.5, please select "Enable Resident Shield" again.

====================================================

Double click on the renamed combofix.exe & follow the prompts.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply for further review.
