Hi.

I'm sorry that you've been kept waiting. I'm looking through your log and will post again shortly.
No worries, appreciate you having a look

Thanks
There's no sign of malware in your HijackThis log. It's possible that this was a false positive from AVG AntiVirus. Being "generic" it was probably picked up by heuristics rather than being identified from a signature. I think that it would be a good idea to run an online scan, just as a double-check.

ESET Online Scanner

Please run the ESET Online Scanner. You must use Internet Explorer to run the scan.

Good evening Lee.

Well, I'll take that as being a clean report. So, it looks as if it was either a false positive or AVG sorted it out. Please let me know if you have any questions, or that we can close this thread.
Hi,

Actually I think I posted the install debug log by mistake! The scan log is below. It looks clean to me. Feel free to close the thread.

Thanks again for your help.

Ah yes! That's a bit more what I was expecting. I thought that you hadn't posted all of it. :)

Thanks again for your help.
