Hi,

I posted about the problems I'm having in another section here because I don't think it's a spyware/virus issue... but I could be wrong! :
http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread262826.html

Basically my pc is running VERY slowly (even in safe mode) and stalls every few minutes. Sometimes when it stalls it's for 10 mins or more. Sometimes in Safe Mode I can use it fine for 30 mins but sometimes not. There doesn't appear to be a pattern. When I was running the Windows Malicious Removal Tool, it showed the time used and the seconds ticked away, then it stalled, and caught up, stalled, and caught up again several times... at one point it stalled for 5 minutes.

I ran everything except the Malware app. It gives me a runtime error and wont work. I've run the ATF-cleaner as well.

I'd appreciate any help in getting this issue fixed. I don't know if it's software or hardware. I'm really stumped. Thank you :)

Here are the logs:

Well, several things I note here, though you said in the original thread that you use BitDefender as your anti-virus program Norton, Bitdefender both have entries in your DDS log, however, there is no indication of either programs RUNNING on the system and the only semblance of a security program showing as being disabled, meaning it's at least installed is Spybot.

Going through the Uninstall list there is NO anti-virus program listed on that at all not even BitDefender so obviously there is no anti-virus program installed.
I see MBA-M in there and Spybot but neither of those is a real time scanner and neither is an anti-virus program so you don't have one installed. I don't see a Firewall listed either so unless you are using the built in firewall you don't have a firewall either. So you literally have no protection on the computer.

You said in the original thread

I tried to do a system restore, but ALL of my restore points were GONE! I have made some manual restore points since, and a few (not all!) are still there, but I cannot restore them.

You are operating under a mis-conception really, System Restore only works for a few key system files. It isn't going to give you your computer back to perfection usually.
The Windows Update you mention has caused problems for BOTH XP and Vista users and it was advised not to install it. Also for the Nvidial Display GeForce 9200 update that you mentioned in the original thread. You should get your updates for items like this from the manufacturer of the hardware not from Microsoft. So you should check that web site. But don't just roll back the driver, totally uninstall the driver and then install the new one FROM THEM not from the Windows Update pages.
But that said, since you are unable to proceed through normal routes I think you probably have some corrupted or damaged system files. It is very possible that a repair or reinstall of the os is your only option.

Hi JHolland
THanks for your post! I had done a clean boot, disabling all (or most) services other than Windows ones, so that must be why Bitdefender wasn't shown as running. I also had to do all the scans (for the logs) in safe mode. I don't know why it shows Bitdefender isn't in the unistall though. It's there, 43 days remaining, and it's up to date. I ran a virus scan with it a week ago.

I think I'm going to play it safe with all Windows updates from now on and Google to see if they cause problems. I did roll back the NVidia driver, and later installed it again directly from NVidia. How does Microsoft advise people not to install an update? I didn't get a notification and the update wasn't installed until at least a day after I received it.

I dont have firewall software but I have a router on my system acting as a firewall.

Thanks also for the info on system restore. I was unaware that it worked this way.

I have Acer recovery CDs that I made when I got this system. Do you know if this will give me the option to repair? I've never used any type of recovery before.

Thank you,
Fiona

Member Avatar for jholland1964

I cannot say for certain if the recovery disks would give you the option for a repair or not, though I would think they would.
As far as Windows Updates and notifications they are not good or to wait, those generally don't come from Windows but from websites like these. Also some of the PC online magazines will often have notifications that people are having problems with an update of some kind.
You do need to check on the Bitdefender because it doesn't show in the Uninstall list.
As for the System Restore you might give a read to this info from here as it gives a good explanation of what System Restore is and how and when it can be counted on and also when it cannot.

Member Avatar for JustFiona

Jholland, thanks for the extra info about system restore. I have a better understanding of it now. I just did a full recovery using my Acer disks. There was no repair option, but judging by the speed of my PC now, it was probably good to do a full recovery. I backed up all my data and noted all my preferences and settings... except my firefox bookmarks! Oh well! It definitely was Windows that was giving me grief. I'm installing Bitdefender now and will run that app again to make sure it shows up there.

Thanks again for all of your help!
Fiona

Member Avatar for jholland1964

Great! Glad all worked out so well. If you have "old" bookmarks in IE you can at least import those into Firefox.

Member Avatar for JustFiona

Actually I just found a backup of my FF bookmarks from September, so I'm not in too bad shape! I really appreciate your help on this and the way you explained things to me. If nothing else, I've learned something from this experience! :)
