Right now I don't think the malware poses any threat to my machine, but I still would like to have some help with that, before I forget about that. Thanks in advance!

It's running as smooth as it was before the malware(so not that smooth. pretty old machine). But other than that, it seems to be gone. Thank you for your help. Anything else I should do?
