Clarification Request
Not something we do here.

I think you are thinking of what bleepingcomputer does. My first read didn't find anything alarming but I think the machine is a little clogged up here and there (bluestacks?)

So what made you think there's an issue?

Here I tend to go more to the hardware issues which folk have been good enough to share a SPECCY web report.

See the link below, which is from a post at the top of this forum which will tell where help is found:

On the other hand, if you haven't already done some malware scans of the computer with the programs in the link below, please follow the instructions to the letter:

I didnt see anything

other than a lot of chrome instances. as the others already stated, they do not do indepth hijackthis logs evaluations here. You really need to go to another forum. I would suggest techsupportforum and post in their malware section. If you do go there, wait before posting any logs until they ask you do.

If you are having problems, you can post the issues here. Please be specific.

Why do you have IE version 8?

Do you have windows updates turned off?
