Someone please help me. :cry: I've been trying to fix my computer for a month now and it just keeps getting worse. First it was riddled with popups and would shut down spontaneously. Now the desktop is gone. Here is what I have done so far:
For every User listed under C:\Documents and Settings, deleted the entire contents of these folders (not the folders themselves):

Local Settings\Temp
Cookies
History
Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

Deleted the entire contents of my C:\Windows\Temp folder.

Deleted the entire contents of my C:\Temp folder.

Did a search for *.tmp and deleted all entries found.

I have AVG and Kaspersky and have ran them fixing problems numerous times. I also have run the following things and fixed things with:
Spybot
Ad-Aware
Spyblaster
Ran these online scans:
http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus.html
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
http://us.mcafee.com/root/mfs/default.asp?cid=9914
http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan/
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php

Downloaded, installed, updated, and ran these tools:

CWShredder -- http://www.intermute.com/spysubtrac...r_download.html
about:Buster -- http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4289.html
HSRemove -- http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4286.html
PurityScan uninstaller -- http://www.purityscan.com/uninstall.html

Downloaded Ewido Security Suite -- http://fileforum.betanews.com/detai...te/1098736486/1
Installed it, and while installing, under Additional Options, unchecked Install background guard and Install scan via context menu.
Rebooted into Safe Mode
Ran a full system scan with Ewido
Emptied my Recycle Bin and rebooted normally.

Finally I ran Hijack This and here is the log:

Hi Speshul_K, welcome to DaniWeb :D

It looks like you've already done a lot of the right stuff. Go to Add/Remove programs in your Control Panel and remove (if present):

Kontiki
Viewpoint
(or Viewpoint Toolbar, ViewBar, Viewpoint Manager, ViewMgr, or something similar)

Reboot into Safe Mode and do a complete system scan with Ewido (even if you've already done so). Note: you will be posting the log from this scan with your next reply.

Still in Safe Mode, have HijackThis fix the following entries:

Close any open windows, other then HijackThis, and hit Fix checked.

Go to the following locations and delete the highlighted folders:

C:\Program Files\Kontiki
C:\Program Files\Viewpoint

Do a search for the following files and delete any instances found:

richedtr.dll
bdoscandel.exe

Go to C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\Kimmy\LOCAL SETTINGS\Temp and empty the contents of the folder (but don't delete the folder itself).

Empty your Recycle Bin and reboot normally.

Close any open browser windows, scan with HJT, and post a new log along with the Ewido log. Let us know if you're still having problems.

By the way, you can reset your home page to something other then HSRemove, if you like.

OK I did all those things. There was one folder with one file in it that would not delete from my temp folder. It was file 5238 or something. I'll keep you posted on if this fixes it or not. The desktop spontaneously came back before I did any of these fixes. Here is my HJT log:

Try deleting the stubborn file from Safe Mode; if it still can't be deleted please give us more info on it (complete name, location, etc.).

Your HijackThis log looks okay :). But a copy of your Ewido log will help determine if anything else should be done.

OK my computer is working good and no popups but 3x in the last 2 days it has frozen up, screen turned white or blue with lines down it and I had to restart. The last time it happened it restarted itself twice during startup. I'm beginning to think I have more than a virus problem. I did another ewido scan in safe mode and here are the results:

It is possible you have something more serious wrong with your computer, you should make sure you have all of your important data backed up in case things take a turn for the worse. (Always a good idea to do regular backups anyway.)

Run ScanDisk and then Defragmentor to see if it helps with the freezing at all.

Open Firefox and go to Tools, Options, and then click on Privacy (padlock icon on the left); click on the Clear All button (you should do this on a regular basis).

Your logs are clean; if you continue having problems with your system freezing, you should post a new thread in the Windows XP forum.
