Extra Folders under user

[Kinyl]

Why do I have all of those extra folders .gimp-2.6 etc and how do I get rid of them?

[leofelix]

Hi.
Did you install The Gimp?

GIMP - The GNU Image Manipulation Program

[Kinyl]

Yeah but I don't want it to use that folder, how do I change it. Also what about .recently-used.xbel and the log files.

I would also prefer if I could get rid of Favourites

[leofelix]

Try to uninstall The Gimp using REVO UNINSTALLER (it's free), then use CCleaner to remove MRU

[seti]

Do exaclty as my friend says

[Kinyl]

What about the others?

And what is wrong with having the Gimp installed?

You asked how to get rid of it

PAVARK is related to some Panda security software (one of their free removal tool or their antirootkit).

If you think your OS is infected you can post a HiJackThis log if you want, I'll take a look into

TrendSecure | TrendMicro HijackThis FAQs

http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en...HiJackThis.exe

download to your desktop
open HiJackThis
click on "Do a system scan and save a log file"
look for Hijackthis.log

[Kinyl]

What about .idlerc
it contains 2 files

breakpoints.lst
recent-files.lst

Both have the

logo

You may also disable "Windows Welcome Center"

O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-19\..\Run: [WindowsWelcomeCenter] rundll32.exe oobefldr.dll,ShowWelcomeCenter (User 'LOCAL SERVICE')

I do not think your system is infected, however I would suggest you to download and install MalwareBytes' AntiMalware, update and run a quick scan

Malwarebytes.org

What is with all of that Internet Explorer stuff at the top?

And how do I diasable Windows Welcome Center?
