[Closed] IE Browser

Littler bugger gets around. I opened up IE and saw 2 command line windows open up.....I didn't see any activity in them but the system has been buggy lately again.

Buggy:
-Explorer.exe locks up the system
- Explorer refuses to shut down
- Shutdown hangs up
- mouse arrow has no effect.
-The curser double clicks a lot.
-I can't highlight text to cut and paste cause it's too jumpy
moves, and refuses to highlight.
-Firefox builds up to 100% unilization and freezes up.
- Reboots stop clearing problems up

- I have reformatted the drive once, which cleared the system for a while
but now I've repaired windows install twice in 2 weeks because the bugs piled up
and I couldn't move.

I went to uninstall IE but it's not listed in add/remove.

Here is my HJT log. Wondering if these 5 items look ok? Any advice for cleaning IE?
Thanks Guys

Chas

Hi Chas_,

My name is Tomk. I would be glad to take a look at your log and help you with solving any malware problems. Logs can take a while to research, so please be patient and I'd be grateful if you would note the following:

I will be working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for the issues on this machine.
Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
It's often worth reading through these instructions and printing them for ease of reference.
If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to say or ask!! It's better to be sure and safe than sorry.
Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
