help with log please

[jagzee]

Hi, Could someone please review this log? My wife's computer has been having some "issues" with wireless connectivity. The problems are very recent. I'm not sure where this free download manager came from. Thanks for your help.

Uninstall that Free Download Manager program via the Add/Remove panel if you or your wife didn't install it.

Delete this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\mom\Favorites\health

The issue with your wireless may be unrelated to malware. Let's run one more scan to see if it finds anything. If not, post in the Internet forum instead for this wireless issue.

Make sure you turn off any antivirus programs you have running while performing the online scan below. Using Internet Explorer, run a virus scan at http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner Click on 'Launch Kaspersky Anti-Virus Web Scanner' and install the ActiveX component from Kaspersky. Click Yes and it will begin downloading the latest definition files. Once that's done, click on 'Scan Settings' and make sure the following are selected:

Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
- Extended

Scan Options:
- Scan Archives
- Scan Mail Bases

Click OK. Now under select a target to scan, select 'My Computer'. It will start and scan your system. The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run. Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected. Now click on the 'Save as Text' button. Save the file to your desktop. Copy and paste that information in your next post.

[jagzee]

Thanks Greyknight, The Free Download Manager was uninstalled in safe mode (previous post). The health folder is a legitimate folder with a link to a friendly website. At least that's what I believe.
The Kaspersky scan indicates the scan is complete and the report is empty. There doesn't seem to be a save report button or link but following, is a copy/paste from the page:

Total number of scanned files: 45367
Number of viruses found: 0
Number of infected objects: 0
Number of suspicious objects: 0
Duration of the scan process: 00:31:36

The wireless issue seems to be resolved, from within the router.
Thanks again.

[greyknight17]

Everything is well now then? Post back once more to confirm and we'll close this one up.

[jagzee]

Yes it seems to be all good now. Thanks again for your help.
