Post #1
Hoping someone may be able to help. Last couple of days I've noticed that when I turn on my computer, the anti-virus protection is turned off and I have to turn it back on manually. Since it's doing this, I don't know what else may be there undetected, so I have to go with the nuclear option and ask for help here. I'm currently running Norton AV, SpySweeper, Spybot, AdAware, and have done on-line scans from Panda and Bit Defender.

Hi Larry1! I'm 'KotaGuy. Welcome to TomCoyote! If you still require assistance, could you please post a new HijackThis log. It has been a few days since you've posted and something might have changed since then. Thanks!
Post #3
Hi 'KotaGuy,

Thanks for the response. Here's a new log. The Norton AV still starts disabled and things seem to be running a bit slower overall. I think I caught something surfing that the AV and spy scanners are missing.

A silly question- Why does the log show several C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe one after another? Are there supposed to be multiples of this running?

Thanks again for the help.

Larry

Thanks for posting the new log.

Multiple instances of svchost.exe is normal.

Download and install CCleaner. Don't run it yet.

Print this out for reference during the fix.

Make sure no files are hidden. TO do this:

1. Click Start.
2. Open My Computer.
3. Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
4. Select the View Tab.
5. Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
6. Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
7. Click Yes to confirm.
8. Click OK.

Run and scan with HijackThis. With all other browsers and windows closed, place a check beside the following and fix:

Boot into Safe Mode. TO do this:

1. Reboot your computer.
2. Tap the F8 button as your computer is booting to bring you to the Advanced Options Menu.
3. Select Safe Mode and press Enter.

Search for and delete these files:

C:\Program Files\Visual Networks\Visual IP InSight\SBC\IPClient.exe
ALCMTR.EXE

Both these files, though installed with legit software, "phone home" and report back things about your system and whatnot.

Browse to your C:\Windows\Prefetch folder. Delete all the files in the folder, do not delete the folder itself. Empty your Recycle Bin. Run CCleaner.

Reboot Windows normally and post a new HijackThis log please.

Hi KotaGuy,

I did all the steps in your post, ran CCleaner in Safe, checked the fix boxes, etc… The computer seems to run a tweak faster, but the main problem remains- when I turn on the computer, the Norton AV "Enable Auto-protect" is turned off every time. I also noticed that my Spybot and my SpySweeper settings had been changed, though these seem to be stable now that I've returned them to normal. Here's the latest HijackThis log-

Best Regards,

Larry

Can you tell me what this line is:

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Yahoo! Pager] 1

Other than that, I don't see anything wrong with your log. What version of Norton are you running? Have you updated its virus definitions recently?
Post #7
'KotaGuy, Never heard of Yahoo! Pager until today. Tried looking in the add or remove programs control panel, clicked on something called yahoo dsl uninstall manager (I think), and now internet explorer doesn't work any more either. I'm havin' a day. I'm running NAV 2004 and update it every couple of days. sigh Larry

OK….

Can you do me a favor… see if you can find a file named 1. If you can, right click on it, choose properties… let me know what is says for vendor info in the version tab.

As for your internet connection problem… download WinSockFixXP.

Run that tool and see if you can connect to the net.

Let me know how it goes.
Post #9
Sorry it took me so long to get back. Had to fix things to get back online. Most of that is where it's supposed to be now. Unfortunately, looking for a file called "1" pulled up more matches than I could search in a year. Something does seem a bit funny about it. I can't find any references to it anywhere. Should I try the fix button on it?
