Hello,

 

I have recently noticed my computer is really slow and I always get popups even with my pop up blocker switched on. Could you help me sort this out?

 

Thanks a bunch.

Hello nataliefontana and welcome to the WTT forum.

My name is Satchfan and I would be glad to help you with your computer problem.

Please read the following guidelines which will help to make cleaning your machine easier:

• please follow all instructions in the order posted
• 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
• all logs/reports, etc. must be posted in Notepad. Please ensure that word wrap is unchecked. In Notepad click Format, uncheck Word wrap if it is checked
• if you don't understand something, please don't hesitate to ask for clarification before proceeding
• the fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
• please reply within 3 days. If you do not reply within this period I will post a reminder but topics with no reply in 4 days will be closed!

IMPORTANT:

Please DO NOT install/uninstall any programs unless asked to.
Please DO NOT run any scans other than those requested

===================================================

Note: Please run these in the order given in the instructions.

===================================================

Download and run AdwCleaner

Download AdwCleaner from here and save it to your desktop.

• run AdwCleaner
• when it has finished, select Clean
• if it asks to reboot, allow the reboot
• on reboot a log will be produced; please attach the content of the log to your next reply.

===================================================

Download and run Junkware Removal Tool

Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

• shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
• run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista, 7, or 8; instead of double-clicking, right-mouse click JRT.exe and select "Run as Administrator"
• the tool will open and start scanning your system
• please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications
• on completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open
• post the contents of JRT.txt into your next message.

===================================================

Run OTL

• download OTL to your desktop.
• double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
• click Scan all users.
• under Custom Scan paste this in
  

  
  netsvcs
  %SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
  /md5start
  explorer.exe
  winlogon.exe
  Userinit.exe
  svchost.exe
  services.exe
  /md5stop
  %systemroot%\*. /rp /s
  DRIVES
  CREATERESTOREPOINT
   

• click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan won’t take long.
• when the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
• please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post it with your next reply.
• you may need two posts to fit them both in.

Logs to include with next post:

AdwCleaner log
JRT.txt
OTL.txt
Extras.txt

Thanks
