Hello Shane,
I am writing to you to say, Thank You! After getting a a Trojan and removing it 18 mos. ago my antivirus, Microsoft Security Essentials, and my Microsoft firewall was not functioning . I would have to run the MSE updater twice or run the Microsoft update to get updated. Periodically I would get a message that my firewall was off. I would go to the control panel and I would get a message display Error code 0x80070424. I used microsoft fix it and it did not fix. Periodically I would search to no avail. I had antivirus scans and adware scans.
I finally seacherched google and a link led me to your web page. I did a rootkit scan and three other things. Then I had the windows, system and registry scanned and repaired. I do not understand what was done but, my system works entirely. Thank you! I am retired however, if I can send a token of my appreciation I will.
I will post my notes in the forum and will tell everyone i know about your awesome web site!
