Hello guy_cr and Welcome to TomCoyote,

Are you experiencing any problems?

Disable Spyware Doctor:
Please disable Spyware Doctor, as it may interfere with the fix. To disable Spyware Doctor:

• Click Settings.
• Click Startup Settings under Pick a Category.
• Uncheck Run at Windows startup.

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = c:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\System\panels\blank.htm
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
Close all windows or browsers except for Hijackthis. Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

You like posting at multiple forums?

Hello Susan,

Yes I had posted at another forum and was helped very quickly but the initial response was so drastically negative about the degree of infection that when his advice cleared it up (apparently) very quickly I was left wondering if something had been missed. Ergo my query to you. I hope I haven't broken protocol too seriously.

My original complaint was general sluggishness, particularly startup and shutdown. This has improved considerable but maybe more because I have cleaned out a lot of unused processes that were a drag on memory etc.

Here is another HijackThis log assuming I am still welcome.

Thanks,

Guy

BTW, what is your take on the best av, firewall, spyware software to use for a 3 computer home network. I have been using Avast but have no real way of knowing how good a job it does. I now have Zone Alarm as a firewall in addition to Windows firewall. Thanks Again

[Susan528]

I believe that John B. did a fine job handling your log.

Incidentally, you are asking for trouble when you install crack applications.

When should I re-format? How should I reinstall?
