Hello Charlie :D

Welcome to Tom Coyote . Sorry about the delay in responding but we are as most times just overwhelmed with logs.

I am not looking at anything earthshattering on your log. Just a few things to fix.

Open HijackThis > Do a System Scan Only, close your browser and all open windows, the only program or window you should have open is HijackThis, check the following entries and click on Fix Checked.

These are not from Yahoo

If you don't want the Yahoo Toolbar, be sure to uncheck it during installation
Download and Install CCleaner
* Click on Run Cleaner
* Run the Issues Scan < – After it scans your system, when you click on the Fix button and it asks you to backup the Registry..Say Yes
Tutorial for CCleaner



Go to Start> All Programs> Assessories > System Tools> Disk Defragmenter. This is the Windows Disk Defragger, run this maybe once or twice a month to keep your system running good. The first time you run it, it may take awhile.



  • Your Java is out of date and leaving your system vulnerable.
  • Go to your Add-Remove Programs in the Control Panel and uninstall any previous versions of Java (J2SE Runtime Environment)
  • It should have an icon next to it:
    [external image: Posted Image]
    Select it and click Remove.
  • Reboot your system.
  • Then go to the Sun Java website and download and install the update.
  • Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 10 <–This is what you need to download and install.
  • If you chose the online installation, it will prompt you to run the program.
  • If you chose the offline installation, you will be prompted to save the file and you can run it from wherever you saved it.
  • Then after install you can verify your installation here Sun Java Verify
I like to to do the offline installation and save the setup file in case I may need it in the future


Post back with a new HJT log as your current one is a little old and let me know if any of this helped at all.
Done as asked Ken545, many thanks for the help.

Your log looks fine :thumbup: Any problems you think may be malware or virus related as far as pop up ads and such?? Has what you have done helped any??
Nothing major happening now,seems to be running fine apart from the odd slow start up when firing Windows up? Yor help much appreciated. :thumbup:
007geezer :D

I am listing most of the items in your HJT log from the 04 entries, these are all programs that load when windows starts. You have more than your share of loading programs and I am sure this is why you have a slow startup. I am not suggesting that you remove them all, this is just for your information. The way to do it is to go to each of those programs and look under preferences to see if they can be disabled on Startup. I am listing what they are for and you can decide yourself what you need and don't need. I would do one at a time and make sure there are no problems.

Remember that this list is for your information on what is starting up when windows starts, you need to look them over carefully and disable the ones you dont think you need. Disable them at your own risk.

What you need to do also is go to your Add-Remove programs in the Control Panel and uninstall any programs that you no longer use and have no intent of ever using. You will be surprised how this will clean up your system.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NvCplDaemon] RUNDLL32.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup
System Tray icon used to change display settings, change the clock rate and memory speed for nVidia based graphics cards. This is unnecessary since you can easily configure these settings the way you want them in the Display Properties and not have to mess with them again. Also disable the "NVIDIA Driver Helper Service" if enabled as it can cause this entry to be re-enabled on re-boot (note that this service can also cause extreme shutdown delays if enabled - see here)
