    Has anyone seen an explorer window or clock taskbar like this? I’ve done multiple AV scans, rootkit detector, registry cleaner. Everything has come up negative.


    Thanks

    It appears that system time am/pm tags have been replaced with “hijacked / infected” text strings, probably somewhere in the registry, probably by a previous infection. Have your system been infected before? If so, by what?

    It’s possible it’s not infected now, and these are just remnants of past infections. I’d still clean it up and research which malware could have caused it – just to be sure it’s fully out of your system.
