So Very Slow

Hello! My brother's Dell laptop is incredibly slow, both in loading up programs, and in the initial start-up. System resources range between 40-20 %. I was hoping that someone could look through my Hijack This log to see if there was anything that needed to be fixed, or that I could get rid of.

First off, I've been through this process twice before, so I've got all the preparations ready. I've run McAfee, TrendMicro Housecall, ETrust AntiVirus, and Panda Active scan, and none of them found any viruses or trojans. Ad-Aware, Spybot, and CWShredder have been run and haven't found anything out of the ordinary. I've got McAfee Firewall, SpywareGuard, and SpywareBlaster all installed and running, so nothing harmful should be getting in. And I've got all maintainence taken care of: Defragmenter, ScanDisk, Disk Cleaner, and CCleaner have all been run, with no problems. All programs have been properly updated and installed.

Also, I'm not experiencing any browser hijacks or getting warning notices or anything. The machine is just painfully slow.

So, here's my log file:

Hello

I see very little indication of an infection but there is a hint of a severe infection without the usual file entries. I am going to have you complete the usual extensive fix to make sure if it is there, we get all that are hiding. I also see a large number of startup entries that will slow the computer down significantly when it is booting up. I know you have run most of the programs I am going to ask you to use, but to remove this infection they have to be run in the following order, step by step, exactly as posted.

First I need you to disable all protection except your AV and Firewall. Please disable SpywareGuard from starting and running as it will prevent the fix from working. Any other protection you have in place should also be disabled leaving AV and Firewall for protection.

To remove this infection you need to download several small free programs and follow the directions very carefully. During the fix you also can have no contact with the internet AND must also keep Internet Explorer and Outlook Express closed or the infection will be reinstalled.

I am first going to ask you to download the programs to clean with and then have you disconnect from the internet and use the programs to clean your computer.


Please copy and paste this entire set of instructions into Wordpad (Start>Programs>Accessories>Wordpad) so that you have them available when disconnected from the internet. You may also want to print them.


Step#1 - Show All Hidden Filesr

We need to make sure all hidden files are showing so please:
* Open My Computer.
* Select the View menu and click Folder Options.
* Select the View Tab.
* In the Hidden files section select Show all files.
* Click OK.



Step#2 - CWShredder For use Later

3. Once the update is finished click on the ‘Gear’ icon (second from the left at the top of the window) to access the preferences/settings window

1) In the ‘General’ window make sure the following are selected in green:
*Automatically save log-file
*Automatically quarantine objects prior to removal
*Safe Mode (always request confirmation)

Under Definitions:
*Prompt to udate outdated definitions - set the number of days

2) Click on the ‘Scanning’ button on the left and select in green :

*Don't log ADS with the following names: CA_INOCULATEIT

4) Click the ‘Tweak’ button and select in green:

Under the ‘Scanning Engine’:
*Unload recognized processes during scanning
*Scan registry for all users instead of current user only

Under the ‘Cleaning Engine’:
*Let Windows remove files in use at next reboot

Under the Log Files:

Step#5 - Fixing With CWShredder

1. CLOSE ALL WINDOWS except CWShredder

2. Run the program by clicking 'fix' and letting it fix all CWS remnants.

3. REBOOT to finish the removal and clear memory.




Step#6 - Fixing With Ad-Aware SE

1. Click ‘Start’

3. Empty your Recycle Bin




Step#10 - Clean Your Favourites Folder

This infection puts many undesirable links in your Favourites folder so you will want to clean that manually by checking all of your entries. (the added entries should be obvious)


**Reconnect to the Internet Now and Finish With an Online AV Scan and a HijackThis log**



Step#11 - Complete an Online AntiVirus Scan

Run an online antivirus scan at:

Reboot




Step#12 - Scan With HijackThis

7. please SCAN again with HJT and

8. POST a new HJT log file and the About Buster log file here in this thread using 'Add Reply' for the next set of instructions.


Good Luck!

Hey dgos, thanks for the help.

I see very little indication of an infection but there is a hint of a severe infection without the usual file entries

Could this be a remnant of malware that was on here before? If I remember right, there was something called "WhenUSaveNow" that was causing problems. Once I disabled System Restore, McAfee Virus Scan was able to clean and delete it from the machine.

Anyway, I followed your instructions (to a point). I disabled all protection (except the firewall). Unhid all files. CWShredder found no problems. Ad-Aware found 2 cookies and deleted them.

Here is the About Buster Log:

I fixed the two items you chose in HJT. I cleaned up the temporary internet files and temp files.

And then the torture began: I had ALOT of problems running Trend. First, it took nearly two hours for the engine and files to download. Then, the thing froze before it even started scanning. I had to force quit and start over again. The second time, it got about 20,000 files in when it crashed again. This time, I was forced to hit the reset button. On reboot, after ScanDisk ran, the Trend Spyware checker came on: it did not show any problems. I tried running the scan twice more, and it kept freezing up.

So I got fed up and ran eTrust Antivirus instead. It found no problems. (Hope that's okay…)

Hey again. All of those files you asked me to search for were present and working. The Hoster.zip thing wouldn't open. SDHelper.dll installed successfully. I've gone through the Favorites file and deleted just about everything.

Trend still refuses to load properly, so I did Panda Scan and it found the following:

Incident: Adware:Adware/Adsmart
Located: C:\WINDOWS\SYSMON.EXE
Status: Not disinfected

Panda won't disinfect unless you purchase the program (which I ain't doing). Is this a necessary file? Is it okay to just trash it, or do I need to boot to DOS to delete it?

And here is the latest HJT log:

dgosling,

All of my McAfee definitions were up to date. I ran another scan and it didn't find anything. Same with eTrust. Housecall still doesn't work (which I don't really understand, since it worked before I initially posted this thread, but whatever…).

Bitdefender did find the Adware.BrilliView.A virus in the KaZaA file, so I deleted it. I ran the scan a second time to confirm that it was gone (and it was).

I checked the Windows and Windows\System files to see if there was anything out of the ordinary, and couldn't find anything. I re-enabled System Restore. I ran Disk Cleanup, and made sure the Internet Temp files were gone.

The computer seems to be running okay. If the host file and HJT log looks clean, maybe the only problem thats left is the slow Startup. Obviously, there are too many programs loading up, which makes startup slow, and eats up System Resources (they are currently running at 16%!). I don't know what half of the things listed in the MSCONFIG Startup folder do, and I'm afraid to disable something that might be vital for the computer to work. Any suggestions?

That Merijn's Files site had a program called Startuplist that was supposed to give details on everything the machine was using. Should I run that and post the log here, or will the HJT log be able to tell you what you need to know?

Here's the latest HJT log:

Definite improvement! Booted up much faster than before, and System resources are up from 15% to about 50%. I unistalled MusicMatch, Quicktime, the Epson printer and IOMEGA Zip drive programs too. So, things are looking good.

I tried Trend again. I get the same error message each time:

Trend did not update successfully. May result from busy server or bad network traffic. Error code 46: merging the incremental pattern was not successful

I click "yes" when it asks if I want to try again, and it takes twice as long to load the files. When it starts the scan, it scans for memory virus, then the registry, and then freezes on the system files scan. I left it alone for an hour to see if it would unfreeze, and it didn't work.
