Harriet567 Log,

This Pentium 3 Computer running Windows XP Professional has been running very slowly lately. I'm using a cable modem with ZoneAlarm Firewall and Nod32 antivirus.
I have updated and run Spybot SD and have found only "Windows Security Center.AntiVirus Disable Notify.
I did not remove this.
I have updated and run Ad-Aware SE 1.06 and removed the cookies it found.
I have updated and run Spy Blaster.
I've downloaded and run Spy Sweeper trial version and it found 14 other cookies plus nvdialer. It didn't remove these because you have to purchase the program for it to remove anything.
I've run Advanced Registry Optimizer and fixed 149 bad links and defragged it.
Thanks for any help.

Please download the trial version of Ewido Security Suite here:

http://www.ewido.net/en/

Install it, and update the definitions to the newest files.

Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following:
1) Restart your computer
2) After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
3) Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
4) Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

Then please run Ewido, and run a full scan. Save the logfile from the scan.

Restart your computer in normal mode and please post a new HijackThis log, as well as the log from the Ewido scan.

Thanks again for your help.

In Safe Mode I ran Ewido. While it was running, when it asked, I removed 46 infections. At the end of the scan it showed the 46 Infected Objects, that there were 46 Cleaned and 0 ignored. The scan took 71 minutes. During the removal Ewido asked up to 5 times to remove the same cookie. It also removed a High Threat called popcaploader which is related to a game site I use.
QUESTION: Do I need to stay away from that site?

It seems that the computer is running slower than when we started at least while accessing internet sites.

OTHER QUESTIONS:
1. How did you decide to run Ewido?
2. The original reason for coming to HJT was that Spy Sweeper found nvdialer as a high threat on our computer. Ewido didn't find't it. How do I get rid or nvdialer?


Here is the Ewido Report:

Manual removal Please follow the instructions below if you would like to remove NVDialer manually. Please notice that you must follow the instructions very carefully and delete everything that is mentioned. In most cases the removal will fail if one single item is not deleted. If NVDialer remains on your system after stepping through the removal instructions, please double-check by stepping through them again. 1. Start the registry editor. This is done by clicking Start then Run. (The Run dialog will appear.) Type regedit and click OK. (The registry editor will open.) 2. Delete 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Code Store Database \ Distribution Units \ {91413D86-9F27-402C-B5E3-DEBDD122C3B2}' 3. Exit the registry editor. 4. Restart your computer.

Siggyx, I follwed your instructions to remove nvdialer and found that the key to delete 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Code Store Database \ Distribution Units \ {91413D86-9F27-402C-B5E3-DEBDD122C3B2}' was not in the registry. Where do we go from here? Did you find anything in the last HJT? I had some other questions in the last post. Thanks for your help, Harriet567

If it is not in the registry them it is more than likely a false/positive.

OTHER QUESTIONS:
1. How did you decide to run Ewido?
2. The original reason for coming to HJT was that Spy Sweeper found nvdialer as a high threat on our computer. Ewido didn't find't it. How do I get rid or nvdialer?


1) Ewido is a great free program that does a deep scan of your susyem and is good for trojans, virues and spyware. That is why I choose it.

2) It is more than likely a false positive.

Other than that your log looks good. Ewido is a resource hog, I warn you now, so you can remove it and that will speeds things up.

WE can do some additional system cleaning if you would like?

Siggyx, Thanks for your False Positive explanation for nvdialer. I've uninstalled Ewido and also Spy Sweeper (the program that originally caused me to come to HijackThis). Then while trying to open Firefox, the computer speed was intermitently switching between running at a reasonable processing speed to running at an extremely slow processing speed. I performed a CTRL/ALT/DELETE and saw the Process svchost taking sometimes 85% process time while Firefox (which was trying to connect to the internet) taking only 15% process time. I had a HP Deskjet Taskbar Utility running at startup, so with WinPatrol I disabled this hoping it would eliminate the problem. IT DID NOT. Do you have a suggestion as to what to do about this problem? Or would some system cleaning help this? Thanks, Harriet567

Lets do some cleaning.

Download ccleaner from the link below, save it to your desktop. Open ccleaner and click on run ccleaner at the bottom right.

Next download Regseeker from the link below. Save it to your destop. Open Regseeker and click on clean registry, next click ok. Once the scan is complete make sure the make backups is checked and then select all and delete it.

Siggyx, I downloaded CCleaner, ran it and removed 46MB of stuff. I downloaded RegSeeker and removed 549 items including .ext's not used, paths not used, invalid ActiveX's (lots), invalid open withs, Zone Alarm Logs etc. Got a message that "WS_FTP does not appear to have been installed correctly for the current user", so I removed this application because we're not using it. Now, per WinPatrol, I'm only running USRSTA.ext (wireless), WinPatrol, Nod32kui, ZoneLabs, WinloginUserInit and WinloginShell at startup. The machine was still slow after restarting, so I Defragged the C: Partition. (I have a 30 GByte Drive with three 10GByte Partitions.) That coupled with CCleaner and RegSeeker has sped the machine up quite a bit, but it's still not as fast as it has been. If you've had enough of this problem I can live with this speed if I can maintain it. Should I run CCleaner and RegSeeker occasionally? You've been very helpful. Thank you for your time and patience.
