Hi!

I'm new to this, but my oomputer has been freezing and rather slow lately, so I finally went and purchased a real security program. It introduced me to this hijack stuff and I have the log and I would be very grateful if someone could take a look to see if everything looks legit on here?

Thanks so much!

Hi Snowbunny,

:welcome:

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.

Unforunately, IOBit based in China is stealing and incorporating proprietary databases and intellectual property into their software. I do not recommend using their products. There are free programs that are better. It isn't that the program won't work, it's mainly that the company that makes it is unethical. Enough about that.

Unfortunately HijackThis hasn't kept up with the newer operating systems, so I'm going to need to see a different log please.

Please download DDS by sUBs from one of the following links and save it to your desktop.
    • DDS.scr
    • DDS.pif
  • Disable any script blocking protection (How to Disable your Security Programs)
  • Double click DDS icon to run the tool (may take up to 3 minutes to run)
  • When done, DDS.txt will open.
  • After a few moments, attach.txt will open in a second window.
  • Save both reports to your desktop.
—————————————————
  • Post the contents of the DDS.txt report in your next reply
  • Attach the Attach.txt report to your post by scroling down to the Attachments area and then clicking Browse. Browse to where you saved the file, and click Open and the click UPLOAD.
