Hello everyone,

I went on my computer one day to find that my internet and my computer in general was running unusually slow (for 3gb of ram and quad-core processor anyways) and I thought it might be a virus. It turned out to be a trojan (which I got rid of) that left behind more than 26,000 zip files with random names (like "123 DVD" and "Terminator Star Wars"). I tried going to the folder which my viruscan said they were in but they were not there. does anyone have any idea what this is and how to get rid of it.:(
 
ok, here is the malwarebytes log. it didnt find the 26000 zips but mcafee scan was finiding them but it was going for 3 days and still no end so i just cancelled it (after it glitched).
