I may suggest
SuperAntispyware
spybot s&d , untick tea timer but immunise
spywareblaster
malawarebytes-antimalware
would be some good tools to have on your system .
(you may have to site search for spyware blaster ) but it's worth it .
install up-date and run them
this should sort out your problem Regards PS yes I checked no 404's this time :-)
