Hi Mike -
I did 8 steps last night and got the following result (which i attached on a separate thread
https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic129436.html) for MBAM, SAS, and HJT so you will get the initial logs. Some of the symptons noticed are slowing down of Firefox that I had to use IE in order to update JRE (step 6). The USB mouse also becomes unresponsive.
The following 3 trojans and 1 virus were detected and blocked by McAfee :
