That message at startup means something's (in this case malware) been removed, or
more accurately partially removed.
Check in A/R for anything suspicious, you don't recognize as having installed yourself.
Uninstall it/them, if possible. If unsure, ask first. Clear out all temp folders,
for all users before running the scans. Use CCleaner, if you have it.
Be sure to update this program after installation, then run a scan:
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
Panda has a good online virus scanner, but disable System Restore before running
any scans to clear out previous restore points. Re-enable it and create a new restore
point "after" running these scans, so you have something to fall back on.
Panda Active Scan with TruPrevent®
You may need to hit a malware support forum, for further help. Registration is free
as are any apps needed for cleaning. Check the pinned topics before posting. Here's
a couple to choose from, but post on only One forum. Good luck.
MalwareBytes' malware removal forum or
