Hello, I was doing a routine virus scan and avg found 6 viruses and I had avg remove them. Last week my log was totally clean so not sure how or where i got these from because I haven't been on the pc lately. Could someone take a look at my log and see if it has any nasty's listed. Thank you.

Quick expert summary: in this thread reported antivirus detections and gave a short “looks clean” read of the HijackThis snapshot. That combination is common — a scanner can detect and quarantine items, leaving a post-clean system that still looks normal at a glance. The HijackThis output posted shows the usual mix of system components, browser add-ons and legitimate security processes rather than obvious rootkits or duplicated system executables, so the most likely scenarios are (a) AVG successfully removed or quarantined whatever it found, or (b) the detections were false positives. Either way, follow-up verification is the prudent next step.

Practical verification checklist:

  1. Check the antivirus quarantine/vault and log entries to capture the exact detection names, file paths and timestamps. Those details determine whether an entry was a well-known adware/PUA or something stealthier.

  2. Run one or two up-to-date “second opinion” on-demand scanners from Safe Mode (for example, a widely used anti-malware scanner and an on-demand online scanner). Reboot and repeat a full scan to confirm nothing reappears.

  3. Inspect autostart locations with a dedicated tool (Autoruns or equivalent) rather than relying only on msconfig or a single scanner. Export a copy before changing anything and look for entries that launch executables from unexpected locations (user temp folders, plain C:\, or anonymous folders).

  4. Use HijackThis’s repair tools only for entries that are clearly malicious or have been confirmed by multiple sources. Always create a system restore point and export the registry before fixing entries.

  5. Check Scheduled Tasks, Services and recent Restore Points for unknown additions. If a suspicious entry recreates itself after a reboot, that indicates a persistent component and calls for offline rescue tools or a more thorough removal method.

Cautions and context: do not restore quarantined files until their identity is confirmed; don’t fix HijackThis entries impulsively; back up the registry and important data first. When analysts need to follow up, the most useful items are the AV detection names, quarantine status and a fresh HijackThis/Autoruns snapshot — those let responders distinguish true infections from false positives and advise whether more aggressive removal or a reinstall is warranted.
