Please double-click the FindAWF icon once again.
Use the following option: Press 3 then Enter to remove bak folders.
A text file opens called: folders.txt
Click below the line and paste the following list of folders to be removed.
Note: This time only copy and paste up to where the actual bak folder is and we don`t need the quotes this time.

C:\Program Files\Google\GoogleToolbarNotifier\bak\GoogleToolbarNotifier.exe

Next, close and click Yes to save the changes.
When done with the above, FindAWF automatically runs a new scan and opens a new log.
Post new log.Ok i am not sure i did this right. I hit 3 then hit enter. I got a notepad up that looked like instructions telling me what u typed to paste without the quotations. There was a line here but it had nothing under it. I closed that and it scaned and another notepad came up. This one had something under the lines so i copied that and reran the program. This time when the notepad came up i pasted what i copied and it asked to save the changes and i hit yes. This is the log that came up after.

I had some trouble with this one. I hope i did it right. I apologize for my ignorance but i am not sure where the HJT directory is. I changed the name like you asked but i changed it from my list of programs. When i right clickd it after i changed the name, i didn't see an option to move to desktop so i dragged it there. It didn't look right so i took my program on the desktop and changed the name there to.I wasn't clear enough. I wanted you to go to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis folder, and rename HijackThis.exe file, but it doesn't matter, because your HJT log is CLEAN!

One, non-important entry we want to clean....
Open HJT, and checkmark this entry:
- O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5C8B2A36-3DB1-42A4-A3CB-D426709BBFEB} - (no file)
Click "Fix checked".

Now...
Download, and install CCleaner: http://www.ccleaner.com/download/builds. Get "Slim" version.
Read CCleaner instruction here: http://www.jahewi.nl/ccleaner/ccleaner.html, and run CCleaner

Let me know, how the computer is doing.Its doing great:) Thanks again for all your help.
I am not sure how a site like this exists for free but i sure am glad for it:)
Super!

BTW...it's not free...the bill is in the mail!

...just kidding...LOL
