[QUOTE="jwcater, post: 304386, member: 31049"] During my improvisation, I got lucky (maybe unlucky) and found myself at the Windows Desktop! I went to Malwarebytes and poked around in settings. I saw that the "scan rootkits" block was not checked (by default, I discovered). Anyway, not knowing whether this was a rootkit issue, I checked the block and started a "hyper scan." I stayed with it but the computer blue-screened before the scan could finish. Before it crashed though, one "object" popped up and it was the PUP.Optional.Conduit.A. Of course, I don't know if that is the problem or not - just fyi. [/QUOTE]
