I can't remember now what I did after getting my licence key when I bought the Pro version.

How are you getting on with the MBAM scan ?

inletwolf:
not very good. i ran an adware scan which did find some errors, but after i restarted ny usre profiles disappeared from my sign-on screen. i had 2 , so i ran the tweaking tool in safe mode ( it fixed the other pc ) but they are still gone. i can sign-on to one...it looks very generic, but i cant remember the password or the name to the other one. any suggestions on how to restore user profiles. i also ran a system restore and got an error message

inletwolf:
okay, it just happened again, everyday at @ the same time, i get a call from an "unknown number" when i answer they hang up. if i let my machine get the call,
 they hang up.  so i called the number back...latest number = 1-479-250-4000   when i call it back it goes to an old dial-up modem sound. when i googled one of the numbers it came up as a " cheap internet server "

any help with this will be greatly appreciated. i am getting VERY frustrated, and a little bit scared!!

What did you use for the adware scan ?

Try your restore points in Safe Mode.

As for the phone calls, does your provider have a last number barring facility.

I was getting chewed with an automated call and my provider had a procedure I had to do which blocked those calls.

An alternative would be to ask your provider to change your phone number because of the nuisance calls.

In the UK you can also report nuisance calls.
