Should I be concerned about all these missing files??

No. HJT doesn't read them correctly. They aren't missing.

Are you having issues with the computer?
Post #3
Thanks for your response.. Nothing major.. it's a new comp and it seems to run pretty slow with 4 gigs of ram. But other than that I'm not having any issues. I'm just trying to stay on top of things.. Thanks for taking a look - Babette

1. All tools MUST be run from the executable. (.exe)
With Admin Rights (Right click on HijackTHis each time you use it, choose "Run as Administrator")

These aren't bad but not needed at startup and might increase proformance

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan. Put a checkmark/tick in the box on the left side on these:
