Any assistance would be grately appreciated in getting my computer working again. I know its down to the v73 bug and have tried various bits of software to remove it and you've guessed it. Didn't work a jot! Therefore any assistance to which lines are to be removed off my registry would be graveful.
Many thanks in advance

Run HijackThis again and put a check by these.

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"







Restart in Safe Mode:
Restart your computer.

Press F8 after the Power-On Self Test (POST) is done. If the Windows Advanced Options Menu does not appear, try restarting and then pressing F8 several times after the POST screen.
Choose the Safe Mode option from the Windows Advanced Options Menu then press Enter.


Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Clear "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Clear "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.


Search for and delete these files if listed:
D:\WINDOWS\System32\mspdnx.dll




Do this also if these Temp Folders are part of your OS.

Also in safe mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.


Next navigate to the C:\Documents and Settings\(EVERY LISTED USER)\Local Settings\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Finally go to Control Panel > Internet Options. On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files". Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK. Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button. Click Apply then OK.


Empty the Recycle Bin

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new HijackThis log file into this thread.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
Computer seems a touch slow still - maybe too much anti-spyware software on now. However internet browsing is available once more, thanks. Tried to post this from the damaged computer but had no success in getting onto the forum, so have had to do it from work once more. With regards to the hijack i notice a v73 file in the list so deleted this again as previous and ran hijack once more and below is the results. Hope this means i am clean now.

Many thanks

Gary

I suggest you do this:

The lines in Blue aren't bad but resource hogs and not needed at startup.

Run HijackThis again and put a check by these.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Spoolsv32] spools.exe

O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = D:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA9.EXE

O4 - Global Startup: Corel MEDIA FOLDERS INDEXER 8.LNK = D:\Corel\Graphics8\programs\MFIndexer.exe

O4 - Global Startup: WinZip Quick Pick.lnk = D:\Program Files\WinZip\WZQKPICK.EXE

O4 - Global Startup: Logitech Desktop Messenger.lnk = D:\Program Files\Logitech\Desktop Messenger\8876480\Program\LDMConf.exe



Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"



Restart in Safe Mode:
Restart your computer.

Press F8 after the Power-On Self Test (POST) is done. If the Windows Advanced Options Menu does not appear, try restarting and then pressing F8 several times after the POST screen.
Choose the Safe Mode option from the Windows Advanced Options Menu then press Enter.


Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Clear "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Clear "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.


Search for and delete these files if listed:
D:\WINDOWS\System32\spools.exe


Do this also if these Temp Folders are part of your OS.

Also in safe mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.


Next navigate to the C:\Documents and Settings\(EVERY Listed Profile USER)\Local Settings\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Finally go to Control Panel > Internet Options. On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files". Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK. Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button. Click Apply then OK.


Empty the Recycle Bin
