Hi Forum,
Problem is, over the last three or four weeks I get a 15 to 25 second delay everytime I start a search with Google. I run AV and Webroot, scan and clean regularly. Nothing shows up. Google suggested you guys. I run a P4 2.5mhz on Virgin Broadband and it runs normally all the rest of the time.

Here's my log: see anything bad, pretty please? Any advice v welcome.

Hello drummer , Welcome to the forum.

This is what I suggest you do.

Download CWShredder from my signature below. Unzip it on the desktop.
Open CWShredder and with ALL other windows closed, click fix.


Go here and run at least one of the online scans, allow them to delete whatever they find:

TrendMicro HouseCall
eTrust AntiVirus Web Scanner
Panda ActiveScan
Note any thing that can't be fixed
Reboot when done.

Next:

Even if you've already run these, make SURE they're up-to-date and run per instructions.

Make sure you have the up-to-date versions of Spybot V 1.3 and Ad-aware SE Build 1.05 . All are free and available below.

Download Spybot, install and update. Then download Ad-aware, install, and update.

Spybot:

Install the program and launch it.

Go to Start > Programs >Spybot > Search & Destroy and choose Spybot S&D

Close ALL windows except Spybot S&D
Click the button to "Search for Updates" and download and install the Updates.
Next click the button "Check for Problems"
When Spybot is complete, it will be showing "RED" (RED) entries "BLACK" entries and "GREEN" (GREEN) entries in the window
Put a check mark beside the RED (RED) entries ONLY.
Choose "Fix Selected Problems" and allow Spybot to fix the RED (RED) entries.

Ad-Aware FULL SCAN:

Install the program and launch it.

First in the main window look in the bottom right corner and click on Check for updates now then click Connect and download the latest reference files.

From main window :Click Start then under Select a scan Mode check Perform full system scan.
Next deselect Search for negligible risk entries.
Now to scan just click the Next button.

When the scan is finished mark everything for removal and get rid of it.(Right-click the window and choose select all from the drop down menu and click Next)

Empty Recycle Bin

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Dear LD Tate, You are very kind to take this much trouble for me. I have printed your instructions and will work through them before coming back to you to report progress. Again, a squillion thanks for your help. Drummer.
Post #5
Dear LD, Okay, did as you suggested, all of it and yup, it took out the trash. My PC is purring like a kitten on speed now. As requested, a new scan log follows. I have yet to run all programs to see if everythijng still works, but as of this minute the surfing delay is gone, along with a couple of hundred assorted browser hi-jackers and ad thingies, not to mention 20 viruses. This was an amazing result considering I always run Norton (up to date), Webroot and the XP firewall. So now I have my old machine back, how do I keep it this way? Do I dump Norton and Webroot in favour of Spybot and the other stuff, or just carry on as I am and run these progs of yours regularly? And hopw does the log look now? (Looks exactly the same to me) Anyway, thanks a big bunch. I shall throw a few bucks of appreciation into Tom's tin cup. May your shadow never grow smaller. Regards Drummer.

Dear LD, Sorry, forgot the log. Here it is. Drum.

I suggest you do this:

Run HijackThis again and put a check by these.

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {1BDD55B8-3985-4E59-B906-5E0AD56D6710} - (no file)

These aren't needed at startup and are resource hogs
O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA9.EXE

O8 - Extra context menu item: E&xport to Microsoft Excel - res://C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~4\Office10\EXCEL.EXE/3000

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



1. Open My Computer
2. Right click on your hard drive that you wish to clean (C drive, for example)
3. In the context menu that opens, select properties
4. Under the general tab you should select Disk Cleanup
5. Windows will scan your drive which will take a few seconds/minutes
6. A box will display the various files you can remove.
Check all boxes except compress old files (If listed)
7. Click OK and windows will comply.

Restart your computer.

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Don't you ever get fed up of cleaning bozos' PC for them?

Well I get pretty darn mad at the bozos that put this garbage on peoples computers. The governments of the world won't let this go on if they turned on their TV and find the bozos had taken over the airwaves and one could only look at one station. A station with crapware and porn :rant2:


I'll wait for your next HJT log :thumbup:

Dear LD,
As requested, here is the latest log. How do I look now?

Good Job :thumbup:


Log looks good :D :thumbup: How is it running any issues?

Note: This will remove all previous Restore Points

Turn off System Restore:

On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

Restart your computer, turn it back on.

On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Remove the Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

Click Start> My Computer, select the Tools menu and then Folder Options, after the new window appears select the View tab…]
This time select the: Restore Defaults
Select: Apply, and click OK




If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing. :D

Dear LDT, I have done all that you suggest, and I shall follow your advice. I trust that I will not require your services again, but it's nice to know that you and the forum are here, expertly taking out the trash. Maybe System Restore will work now, it wasn't before. Many many thanks. Drum.
