Hi there and thanks for your great service.
My computer has been a bit slower than usual and sluggish on line, plus the PC clock has jumped forward an hour about 3 times in the past couple of weeks.
This all seems to coincide with an online MSN toolbar update that I was prompted for (which I have considered removing from my PC)
I ran stinger, CWS shredder, Trojan Hunter, Spy Doctor(it's bit of an old version though) and I have Avast antivirus which found : Win32:Kuang2 : 3 entries and 1 entry for: Win32:NGVCK-E and I moved to the chest for the time being.

Today I was online and the PC just went kind of crazy, lots of programs startd up and the screen flashed from one thing to another I had no control of the cursor and other functions and turned off and rebooted from my hard drive.
Also when I turn on my PC the past few times a dialogue box appears on start up saying something like services for Win32 (or something like that) has encountered a problem and needed to close with the time and the time is when my Pc has been off ??

Please see my Hijack this file and advise me of the best possible action....
With Massive thanks x Danielle ;)

Ooops I forgot to post the Hijack this log........here you go:

Hi, you have a few infections, but lets see if we can get the scanners to knock them out before we begin to do things maunually.

Please download the following.

Ewido (Trial) – http://www.download.com/Ewido-Secur...tml?tag=lst-0-1

SpySweeper: http://www.webroot.com/consumer/products/spysweeper?acode=af1&rc=3599

Install both. Update Definitions. Run Both.

When done scanning, post a new HJT log, along with the ewido log, and the spysweeper log

Hi there.

I hope that that's useful.
