Since you do no mention removing this pirated program, Cyberlink.PowerDVD.Deluxe.v8.0.1531 and since no specific issues remain:
Remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created
Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.
Empty the Recycle Bin
A tip for you: before downloading any program, examine the screen for any pre-checked boxes. These are usually for things like toolbars> the Ask Toolbar being a frequent offender. Uncheck any of the boxes before you download.
Remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created
- Uninstall ComboFix and all Backups of the files it deleted
- Click START> then RUN
- Now type Combofix /Uninstall in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
- Download OTCleanIt by OldTimer and save it to your Desktop.
- Double click OTCleanIt.exe.
- Click the CleanUp! button.
- If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
- The tool will delete itself once it finishes.
Note: If any tool, file or folder (belonging to the program we have used) hasn't been deleted, please delete it manually.
- You should now set a new Restore Point and remove the old restore points to prevent infection from any previous Restore Points.
- Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools
- Click "System Restore".
- Choose "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next".
- Give the Restore Point a name> click "Create".
- Go back and follow the path to > System Tools.
