Windows Easy Transfer - How can I get rid of this?

My computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad T400 with Windows 7 Professional.

One of my friends scanning a lot of pictures and then sent me to a Toshiba flash drive. When I plugged the flash drive on my computer, he started something called Windows Easy Transfer and wanted to know if I wanted to transfer everything. I had no idea what he was talking about, but I thought, well, Yes, I want to transfer the pictures that my friend sent me. I assumed that Windows Easy Transfer, it was how it was done. I mean, it's a Windows program; I just didn't know it would be bad to use.

Well, when it was over, I got this box labeled "Windows Easy Transfer reports." It seems that a lot of software, settings and a user account with the name of my friend about it was transferred to my computer!

I don't want that! What's happening on Earth?

Now I have things on my computer as "215 Apps - DealVault," 'Adobe Flash Player 12 ActiveX,' 'ArcSoft media 2' 'Conduit SearchProtect', 'Mindspark Interactive Network HeadlineAlley Toolbar and InboxAce Toolbar,' 'PC TEKNIX Extreme Flash Player,' "SmartApps DealVault," "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver", 'Intel TV Wizard' and so on! I recognize even more of that, and a lot of it sounds like malware, or stuff of advertising and badly behaved toolbars that I don't want on my computer!

I searched "Uninstall programs" and none of them are still on the list! Where are they and how do I get rid of them?

I also do not want user account from my friend on my computer, and I can't find that either. According to the report of transfer, "users successfully transferred: [name] transferred to user." But when I use change user, there is no account he marked [name].

In addition, under the transfer report tab, there is a line called 'System Settings', and this line does not provide even a Details link.

When all this stuff has been on my computer and how do I get rid of him?

Hello squirm,

We apologize for the late response.

It seems you've got some corrupt short icons of the user account of your friends through Windows easy transfer.

I suggest you perform a restore of the system to cancel the easy transfer.

Check out the link:

System restore

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

Hope the helps of information. Please respond with the status of the issue so that we can help you further.

Thank you

    How many recipients have been including you in the message?  What is the size of the zip file that you are trying to send?

    This message is frequesntly most associated with a Microsoft Exchange Server that is also running an SMTP virtual server, what I read.  This means that the server does not like how big the stream of SMTP session is.
