if that program gave you a clean result, then run the other tools... basicaly its just following the steps given, and with the resulting log files all you need to do is attach them to your next post as attachments, with any comments like if one tool wasn't working or whatever...
then after that, one of the guys here will help you out in what to clean out etc. to get your pc back to normal.

you missed this one.. but other than that your hjt log is pretty much clean..
O9 - Extra button: Bodog Poker - {F47C1DB5-ED21-4dc1-853E-D1495792D4C5} - C:\Program Files\Bodog Poker\GameClient.exe (file missing)
yes you can uninstall those programs, but i suggest keeping ccleaner and spybot (although you can disable the teatimer app in it, if you don't want spybot to tell you of registry changes) and occasionaly using them since they're good cleaning programs.
there are some poker apps that let a whole lot of adware and spyware in your pc, but if you trust its a genuine app then you can install it if you wish, but as a word of caution just watch your pc to see if that is the culprit of your original problem or not.
with the rest of the pc being a bit slow, there are a couple of things for you to try:
- https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic53669.html
- run the ccleaner to fix any registry issues
- uninstall the toolbars (like yahoo) and see if that makes a difference
- uninstall norton, and use AVG or Avast with a firewall instead, and see if that improves things..
you don't have to worry about the beers mate.. i don't drink
but do stick around and learn a bit.. help out where you can :wave: and don't hesitate to ask questions if you need!

Download either the free AVG or Avast antivirus programmes and either the free Zonealarm or Kerio firewall programmes from within this link - https://www.techspot.com/community/...lware-removal-preliminary-instructions.58138/
Then, disconnect from the net and completely uninstall Symantec/Norton. If you have any problems in uninstalling the programme, take a look at this thread - https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic57112.html
Once you`ve completely uninstalled Symantec/Norton, reboot your system and install whichever firewall programme you chose, followed by whichever antivirus programme you chose. Reboot your system the required number of times and reconnect to the net. Run the antivirus updates.
