Please read and CLOSELY follow th security section's sticky: ***Important: Please read before posting!***

Then post your logs on this thread. I would post the link and instructions, but I'm on my phone.
 
These are what gambling man was talking about. Directions...


Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here or here and save it to your desktop.
  • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to
    • Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
    • and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version. Please keep updating until it says you have the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
  • A log will be saved automatically which you can access by clicking on the Logs tab within Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

If you continue to experience problems after doing this, please post a HijackThis log by doing the following:

Download the HijackThis installer from here.
Run the installer and choose Install, indicating that you accept the licence agreement. The installer will place a shortcut on your desktop and launch HijackThis.

Click Do a system scan and save a logfile

Most of what HijackThis lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.

Post the logfile that HijackThis produces along with the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log
 
Might want to post the logs as you still could be infected, lots of things malwarebytes won't catch.
 
I second Johnb35's post. There are many thing which can be wrong with a computer, and malwarebytes cant find/remove/fix. Malwarebytes does a great job at removing many infections, but it has its limitations.

I would recommend that you post the logs.
