Reboot your computer & download and run Blacklight

After you start the program and accept the license, you should see the first step (Figure 1), which lets you scan for hidden items. Note that you must have local administrative privileges to run the program.

Click Scan. BlackLight will use Windows Explorer (the desktop process) to scan for hidden items. Your anti-virus software or personal firewall might display a warning that says Blacklight (blbeta.exe) is trying to manipulate the Windows Explorer process (explorer.exe). If you want to continue the scan, you should allow BlackLight to do this

When it finishes, click Next. You may get a screen similar to the picture below. Click on Close

BlackLight beta would create a log file "fsbl-<date-and-time>.log". By default, the log file is in the same directory as the executable. Please post the log




Along with BlackLight's log, please post a fresh copy of HJT log & tell em how your machine is behaving now.
