How do I remove "Text Enhance" ad software?

[Rozz513]

The other day I was try to get some free things off the internet.(xbox live subscription) I agreed to add a game download. I know it was dumb, but now have this highlighted text, that when i drag my cursor over an add pops up. Could someone help me get rid of this please. I tried AVG and Malewarebytes, which did remove some potentially harmful file and what not, but this "Text Enhance" still remains. Thanks for any help you can give.

I can not find the log file for combo fix. I found a results log labeled "rei," but it looks nothing like the example shown. Should I still post it?

 

[Rozz513]

Nevermind. I downloaded the wrong scan. I didn't read carefully enough. Bare with me I not super savvy when it comes to computers, to say the least.

XBOX Live is never free. You were scammed.

This. If you see an offer for free XBL time or MS Points, just ignore it. There's a 100% chance it's a scam.

You need to remove the things associated with the Rewards Arcade and the Toolbars it installed.

O2 - BHO: RewardsArcade - {597A9974-8CB0-4f41-B61F-ED065738A397} - C:\Program Files\RewardsArcade\RewardsArcade.dll
O2 - BHO: Search Toolbar - {9D425283-D487-4337-BAB6-AB8354A81457} - C:\Program Files\Search Toolbar\SearchToolbar.dll
O3 - Toolbar: Search Toolbar - {9D425283-D487-4337-BAB6-AB8354A81457} - C:\Program Files\Search Toolbar\SearchToolbar.dll

You need to find where this program is hiding and remove it:

O4 - Startup: PowerReg Scheduler.exe

That is a virus.
