Elemec's confing (Looking for improvements)

[Elemec]

Really scared of being infected as i downloaded a 6,000 virus .rar for test my antivirus , It detected only one and excluded the .rar , I was still scared. Somehow , Baidu pc faster popped up on my pc (Probably due to me using Baidu Spark browser in the past) , Unninstalled.
Msoysync.exe started popping up like crazy on the task manager.
TrustedInstaller was somewhere on windows , Not sure if virus or not.
Qihoo removed a driver called zemana something (I've tested zemana a little , But didnt trust it)

If needed , More info about the computer :

AMD Sempron(tm) 14 Processor 2.71 GHz
2,00 GB
Operational System 32 bit

Forgot to add that i also use Comodo Firewall with http://malwaretips.com/threads/regarding-comodo.32666/ Settings

Zemana is trusted company and the best antilogger software they have. They also offer free products.
If you do not use Virtual machine, then do not play with malwares!
Lets create a better config with you.. Read and apply these steps one by one..
If you have Baidu before, you cannot remove this with its installer, I offer you to use JRT and scan with it

• 360 TS+CFW is great these can protect you agaianst zero-day malwares. I offer you Avira Free Antivirus because Qihoo's False Detections are too high agaimst a basic user. Avira is good at against PUPs and it has good detections against well known malwares..Do not play with malware on your production machine!
  
• You have adblocker it is good.You should think to add WOT and HTTPS Everywhere into your browser. If you want more privacy then add Privacy Badger
• Backup your files and documents out of your computer!
• You can use a VPN solution, take a look at giveaway section of the forum, there is 1 year OkayFreedom VPN, it is good.
• Your computer is shared,then you can use Unchecky against PUPs when installition

If you have question please ask under the topic.
Thanks for sharing your config

If you are not sure what you're doing, you shouldn't be downloading any Malware Packs. I would strongly advise that you carefully dispose of the contents immediately.

Testing Antivirus / Security software should only be performed on a spare (non-production) PC or Virtual Machine, isolated from any home or work networks.

Thanks. Yes , Not going to test malware things anymore. My computer is shared with my parents , So getting it infected is twice as bad.
I'm going to install things you said.

Elemec before installing Avira Free Antivirus, please uninstall Qihoo TS 1 Real time protection is enough for you.

Great! JRT removed some adware registery keys, toolbars and Baidu folders in C:\.
Now, start in normal mode and uninstall Qihoo and restart! Restart is needed.
Then install Avira Free antivirus here. It is offline package.

Trusted Installer is a legitimate process where it holds the vital/crucial Windows Critical files in order to prevent any changes for moving/ deleting without higher privilege.

Antivirus have different algorithms when dealing in read/write capabilities especially compressed files unless you extract them to activate the alarm.

It can be a False positive as Zemana known for the software of Anti-keylogger and others.

[Elemec]

One more question , Is there any safe program that makes backups for me? Like , Without the need of the pendrive with the windows , As i dont have access to that?

Also , here info. During mean time , When i ws still downloading the junkware tool , Something wasnt letting me run it. However , I clicked restart and it appeared " Do you want to run it? " I cancelled the restart and ran it , As whatever was killing the process , Died.
I soon unninstalled quihoo and now am installing avira by your link.
Thanks for the support.

@Elemec: For backups you need those storage devices in order to keep them in case of problem arises.

 

[Elemec]

Any need of me leaving avira with the high detection level of AHeAD?

No , I meant , A way to make a backup , That dont requires me to use the pendrive containing my windows 7 iso , As i dont have that.
I can get an empty pendrive , Though

No no medium is Ok, to prevent false detections. But check all detection types on next step
