My computer has been running really slow. I have AVG, Spybot, and Ad-Aware.. I run them multiple times a day, in safe mode, but the same stuff keeps coming back. I am posting my hijack this log. I would really appreciate it if somebody could take a look at it, please!!

Time to get some free stuff.... but first, why not copy this into notepad?

I would like you to download CCleaner from http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4191.html and put it in a new folder.
Next go get Ewido 4.0 [free], install it alongside your other regular applications in Program Files, because you should keep it for scanning once a week or so - put an icon on your desktop.

So, Ewido:- start it; the main "Status" menu will appear. Select "Change state" to inactivate 'Resident Shield' and 'Automatic Updates'. Click on update tab and then Update Now. When it finishes click on scanner tab and then Settings:- How to act- click on recommended action and set Quarantine. For reports, set to generate after every scan and untick only if threats found. Finally down on the tray right click the Ewido icon and untick Start with windows, an then Exit it. Don't scan yet.

Ok, you're done with the net. Shut it down. Disconnect..... whatever...

Rclick your recycle bin and run CCleaner. [or go to its folder and dclick ccleaner.exe] You will lose a lot of handy stuff like histories etc... but there is a job to do...

Go into safe mode [Restart, key F8 immed after POST runs and select Safe Mode and Enter.... You'll get a dark desktop with icons etc...]

Start Ewido, do the full system scan. Click "Apply all actions" to place any infected files into Quarantine, and only then click on "Save Report" to view all completed scans; click on the scan you just performed and select "Save report."

Note: Close all open windows, programs, and DO NOT USE the computer while Ewido is scanning. If Explorer or other programs are open during the scan that means certain files will also be in use. Some malware will insert itself and hide in areas that are "protected" by Windows when the files are being used. This can hamper Ewido's ability to clean properly and may result in reinfection.

And now, still in Safe Mode and with NOTHING else open, run Hijack This, check the items i list below and Fix them. [if they still exist]


NOTE - the first two you do not need as auto-starts. They just hog resources, and their functions will still remain for manual initiation.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

I'm not sure why this next one is on registry auto-load... have you had a bad crash lately?? Anyway, go ahead and fix it, cos your sys is obviously running now... :)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [KernelFaultCheck] %systemroot%\system32\dumprep 0 -k

O9 - Extra button: Poker.com - {6FDD5236-C9F0-49ef-935D-385F5E21991A} - C:\Program Files\Poker.com\Poker.exe (HKCU)

O16 - DPF: {084F552D-19EB-4668-9788-984CBC781A8F} - http://survey.otxresearch.com/Preloader.dll

We may have some fun with the last one...

Done? then back to normal mode, run HT again and please post it.

I looked up Ewido, and it isn't available anymore, but I already had AVG and so I ran that, and of course CCleaner like you said. Here is my second hijack this log. I did have a big crash a few months ago...my husband's brother downloaded Limewire on my computer. I think I got it all off though...

oh, lord, i do apologise for not putting in the ewido link. it is still available, it's free if you wish; it was bought out by Grisoft. So you get it here:-
==== Get ewido and AVG free both via this link..

http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5

red.clientapps has a dubious reputation because of its advertising policies. Other cleaners suggest removing it, so unless you really wish to keep it, fix it in another HT passs.

These two.. well, it's an online scan and if you intend to use it again you will have to dl the .exe files again cos they are missing, so fix these two also.

Grab, Ewido. it is a good scan, it just needs manual updating, say once per week, just b4 you run a scan. Put an icon on your desktop and run it from there. Scan frequency depends on your surfing risks, i guess...
Do those things and you will be so clean your pc will squeak. Or maybe that will be the heads biting the disc surface.... :)

btw, limewire. Yep, it's peer to peer, and you never quite know your peers, do you? But if it's music you are downloading, the more copies available then prob the safer it is [no-one is going to keep a bad bit of code, are they, once they try to play it..?] and further, limewire has a preview function.... so once say 15% of your track is in, give it a test run by previewing it... if you hear a snatch of music, chances are it's okay.
Shared software? Give the file a GOOD Av scanning b4 you open it....
Never open anything with a double file extension like funnycloud.jpg.exe. It doesn't have to be .exe - there are lots of other executable script codings out there.

There is no need to download Ewido, AVG anti spyware is already installed which is what ewido AS has changed it's name to. It's the same (with a better scanner).

But it appears as if no antivirus is installed so you should download AVG antivirus form that link and run a full scan with that. Nothing else jumps out at me only that there is a lot of processes running which coulf be the reason your comp is running slow.

Try an online anti virus for a closer look

http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/ActiveScan.htm

Paste the results here if anything bad is found.

I do have my internet security suite from my internet provider, I run that from time to time and it never finds any viruses, I also ran some other free online virus scan (I don't remember which one) and it also found nothing. So, it seems my main problems is spyware, etc.

Panda online scan scans deeply and doesn't just detect viruses, it also detects spyware, adware, dialers, hacking tools.

Alright, I'll run that, probably before I go to bed tonight...it seems like it takes forever...

hey, thanks for that, colin mac.. i knew they would rebadge Ewido, just had not been back to the site to check cos my Ewido [from AVG] still receives updates. But if as you say AVG antispyware 7.5 has a better scanner [ the actual scanner, or just the GUI changes?] then i should change over...

Ok, I ran Panda...here is the report from that...
