Hi -
My computer seems to be running rather slow these days. Also, logon and log off are very slow. Here is my HijackThis log. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi surfer454and welcome to Tom Coyote forums

I am currently looking over your log. As I am an Undergraduate, everything that I post to you must be checked by an Admin or Moderator. Thus, there may be a tiny bit of a delay between posts, but it shouldn't be too long. I will post back shortly with a potential fix.

Thanks for your patience!

Hi surfer454

Firstly you have no protection on this machine, Let's address that first.

These programs are essential to prevent you from getting reinfected:


* Use an Anti Virus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. Please download and install one antivirus program from the following list, download the latest signatures, and do a full system scan.

o AVG Anti-Virus
o Avast Home Edition
* Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is susceptible to being hacked and taken over. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly. For more info, check This webpage out. Two free ones available for personal use:

o Kerio Personal Firewall
o ZoneAlarm

Without these programs, you will be quickly reinfected, and we would just be wasting our time trying to clean your computer.

Please include new HJT log,
in your next post
Thanks dan
