Hi lisa65 and welcome to the forums here at Tom Coyote.

Please do us a favor and do not start a new topic. I merged the 2 you started into this one so use the Add Reply button in the lower right hand portion of the screen to reply back. Thanks.

OK, a couple of items that can be cleaned up with HJT (see below).

My pc is running so slow too.

It appears you have 2 firewalls running, Zonelabs and eTrust, which will definitely contribute to this. Multiple firewalls may cause system slowdown and will likely conflict with one another. So I would recommend removing one of them. Also make sure your Windows firewall is disabled if you are using one of these.

———————————————–

Running HJT:

Run HijackThis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

Then close all windows except this one and press Fix checked.

I am finding I have some files that has been changed and I can't access them any longer

Can you give me some details on this.

Regards,
Dave
