Hijack This Log..., Firewall being disabled... Options

[Kendo]

Hello,

Big Newbie at this.. I hope I have the right location.. If not I apologize

I have noticed that my Norton Firewall is sometimes disabled at startup.. and when I try to enable it, It tells me that I am not the Administrator. If I reboot, the problem usually goes away.

I ran Spybot and immunized .. but the problem still happens once in awhile..

I am thinking of just reformating everything..

Any suggestions as to what I can do.. or try..
Differant virus scanner etc..

Anything??
Please !

I am very sorry about that... sigh...

[Galadriel]

Well not much wrong that I see. Apart from this one entry. Have Hijack This fix it by placing a check in the appropriate box and hitting fix checked. Make sure to close all browser and all Windows Explorer windows before fixing. Reboot when done.

Incidentally I don't think it would affect your firewall from starting up...

But try this, get the newest version of Hijack This and scan. It will list your running processes.

Get it at http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/h.../hijackthis.zip

Post a new log.

[Kendo]

Thank you Galadriel!!

I am going to try what you said..

I have downloaded the new Hijack this file and I will repost it.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

Hello,

Thanks for your time!

Kendo,

Nothing seems nasty in there...

Try cleaning up some startups you don't need. Like Spybot, you can start that manually. And you can probably eliminate some other startups as well.

Here's a good source of info to look up your startups and help you determine whether they are needed or not.

http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_content.htm

If no joy, try uninstalling Norton and reinstalling it.

Hope this helps,

Cat

Why don't you cut down a little on your startups....like maybe Spybot and Pest Patrol. Run them manually if you suspect something. Too many things loading at once could cause the problem you are describing.

[Kendo]

Thanks for your help!

I thought there might be too many startup files, but I wasnt sure which I could delete safely.
My computer is taking awhile to boot nowadays.
That link you provided will help me figure out which ones...

Just so I understand correctly, you are talking about selective startup.. using MSconfig, right?

I appreciate your time Galadriel and mjc!

[Galadriel]

Yes Kendo. Or in each of the programs there ought to be an option to stop it from running at startup. Like in Spybot, I know there is one. If you go to Settings - Settings and uncheck the options under Automation.

There probably is something similar in those apps. Or do it with MSConfig.

Cheers and glad to help.
