Thought I would do the full windoz scan, as pc has been running slow for a long time.

Had to leave pc on over night, probably why I use the Quick Scan.

Let Windows delete the trojan and hope it's gone.

www.microsoft.com

Will try starting to see if it loads any faster and come back with an answer.

Notice the Trojan is out on the removal G drive.

That's what I do on my windows 10 PC, supplement windows free tool with occasional scans from those 2.

1 min for the screen icons to appear.
4.5 mins for the rest of the taskbar icons 6 of them to load.

No wonder I go and read the Press and come back later, rofl.

It's the Work Horse computer to.

Thanks dug, yes I do use other security regularly, HouseCall, Adware, SuperAnti and CC.

Thinking hard about putting things on our replacement lappy, but find it hard work with the smaller keys, could get a wireless keyboard, means more junk to carry about.

Malware always picks up a lot of the "you know what" !.
