I still have not experienced any symptoms of screenglaze infecting my system. Malwarebytes does not detect it upon booting, and the screenglaze folder is absent from its usual location. However, it is still an option as a screensaver in control panel. If I click it, it returns the folder to its normal location and malwarebytes detects it. Is there any way to force control panel to remove it, just to be sure that this is all over?

Let's try this:

FRST.gif
FRST search

Once again we shall use FRST for additional checks. Re-run FRST/FRST64 by double-clicking:
  • Copy *.scr into the Search: field in FRST then click the Search Files button.
  • FRST will search your computer for files and when finished it will produce a log Search.txt in the same directory the tool is run.
  • Please attach it to your reply.

Let's see if this fixes this:

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
    FRST.gif
    icon and select
    RunAsAdmin.jpg
    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 finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

MalwareBytes doesn't detect it. The screenglaze folder is absent. Screenglaze is no longer a screensaver option. After running through a bunch of programs to see if any of them generated the screenglaze folder, it didn't appear.
