Please go to Virus Total and upload the following file for analysis:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\edeabbe3_r.dll
Use the browse button at the site to find the file, once you find the file double click it and it should appear in the empty space to the left of the browse button> click "send file".
Post the results in your reply.

Not sure what is going on but that file is not there. I did a search for the file (including hidden) and it came up with nothing. I see it referenced in the Combo fix log.
BR

Go to start> search> all files and folders> type in edeabbe3_r.dll> search. and see if it is found.

Searched. Not found.
Again, thanks for the quick responses.
I have noticed that AVG is running again in the toolbar, and 'stop all scans' does not work when I right click on it.
BR

My AVG does that sometimes, the scan actually stops but the scan icon stays in the tray. A restart will remove it.
Empty the restore folder. Go to start>control panel>system>system restore tab>check the box beside "turn off system restore>apply (takes a minute)>ok. Go back and uncheck the box to turn system restore back on>apply>ok.
