    Oh, btw, we just created fresh restore point and we deleted old restore points, so you don't have to worry about it.

    New Subject-

    I just ran a complete scan of both C:\ and D:\ drives. D:\ was clean but C::\ had one warning and one detection in:
    C:\hp\bin\killit.exe

    If my memory serves me, this has always been in my computer since I've had it..

    I wonder if it's a program that needs to be in it..i'm confused now...LOL:haha:
    I did not quarantine this - shall I?

    The log is huge..it shows everything on this machine!
