Hello,


Can you show me what exactly is MalwareBytes reporting?

*Note*
Malwarebytes was the second one done around 10 hours after the first one, Malwarebytes2 was the first one.
This was exported from the Application Log from Malwarebytes.

Yes, I see now.

Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

​

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

• Right-click on
  
  icon and select
  
  Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Press the Fix button just once and wait.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
• When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

Well, it did require a restart.

Well, the same thing seems to be happening to Firefox as well. And by that, I mean that it randomly closes as well.

Nevermind, apparently that might have been an issue with my plugins. I did the things on the malware removal guide on MalwareTips again and nothing was detected.

How is your PC behaving now?

For now, everything seems to be fine. Thanks for the help
