Solved BSOD, Black Screen, now a Trojan

Yes, it says ESET NOD32 AV, and it's logo includes a blue and white cyborg. While reading your instructions, I noticed that it have the option to scan archives. Rather, only scan as an option.
 
You already have MSE installed.
Uninstall Eset and follow my instruction how to run Eset ONLINE scanner.
 
Hi Broni, Thank you for clarifying that up...I was wondering why it wasn't giving me some of the options mentioned in your instructions. I ran the ESET Online Scanner twice and it didn't provide a log.

1. Update your Java version here: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

Note 1: UNCHECK any pre-checked toolbar and/or software offered with the Java update. The pre-checked toolbars/software are not part of the Java update.

Note 2: If you're running 64-bit system make sure you install BOTH, 32-bit and 64-bit Java.

If you don't want to run another extra service, go to Start > Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Miscellaneous and uncheck the box for Java Quick Starter. Click OK and restart your computer.

2. Now, we need to remove old Java version and its remnants...

Download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it.

  • Accept any prompts.
  • Do NOT post JavaRa log.

=============================================

Your computer is clean

1. We need to reset system restore to prevent your computer from being accidentally reinfected by using some old restore point(s). We'll create fresh, clean restore point, using following OTL script:

Run OTL

  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following:

Code:
:OTL
:Commands
[purity]
[emptytemp]
[EMPTYFLASH]
[emptyjava]
[CLEARALLRESTOREPOINTS]
[Reboot]

  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  • Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
  • Post resulting log.

2. Now, we'll remove all tools, we used during our cleaning process

Clean up with OTL:

  • Double-click OTL.exe to start the program.
  • Close all other programs apart from OTL as this step will require a reboot
  • On the OTL main screen, press the CLEANUP button
  • Say Yes to the prompt and then allow the program to reboot your computer.

If you still have any tools or logs leftover on your computer you can go ahead and delete those off of your computer now.

3. Make sure Windows Updates are current.

4. If any trojans, rootkits or bootkits were listed among your infection(s), make sure, you change all of your on-line important passwords (bank account(s), secured web sites, etc.) immediately!

5. Check if your browser plugins are up to date.
Firefox - https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
other browsers: https://browsercheck.qualys.com/ (click on "Launch a quick scan now" link)

6. Download, and install WOT (Web OF Trust): http://www.mywot.com/. It'll warn you (in most cases) about dangerous web sites.

7. Run Malwarebytes "Quick scan" once in a while to assure safety of your computer.

8. Run Temporary File Cleaner (TFC) weekly.

9. Download and install Secunia Personal Software Inspector (PSI): https://www.techspot.com/downloads/4898-secunia-personal-software-inspector-psi.html. The Secunia PSI is a FREE security tool designed to detect vulnerable and out-dated programs and plug-ins which expose your PC to attacks. Run it weekly.

10. (optional) If you want to keep all your programs up to date, download and install FileHippo Update Checker.
The Update Checker will scan your computer for installed software, check the versions and then send this information to FileHippo.com to see if there are any newer releases.

11. (Windows XP only) Run defrag at your convenience.

12. When installing\updating ANY program, make sure you always select "Custom " installation, so you can UN-check any possible "drive-by-install" (foistware), like toolbars etc., which may try to install along with the legitimate program. Do NOT click "Next" button without looking at any given page.

Hi Broni, Thank you so much for helping me and I'm sorry for my delay in response time. So far, the computer is running smoothly, and faster! I do have a couple more questions, if you don't mind. I checked my Windows Updates, and was shocked to see "64 important updates are available" and "11 optional updates". Should I accept and update all of these? I haven't had a blue screen nor a black screen thus far, and no more trojans from what I can see. I have another issue though. I tend to put my laptop to 'sleep' at night, and close the lid. But, in the morning, it opens to a black screen, reading 'windows shut down unexpectedly', and then starts up as normal. It's plugged in, with no battery, so I would assume it would just open to where I left off. Is this normal?
 
and was shocked to see "64 important updates are available" and "11 optional updates". Should I accept and update all of these?
Windows updates have to be always up to to date.
Always check "optional" ones and un-check any non-MS updates.

As for your other issue....

In this forum, we make sure, your computer is free of malware and your computer is clean :)
Because the access to malware forum is very limited, your best option is to create new topic about your current issue, at Windows section.
You'll get more attention.

Good luck and stay safe :)
