Can't believe I found this site - It's so wonderful you guys are here and are offering to help others.

Been reading on here for several days and I have done all I can on my own.

Have WinXPHome - all updates current, ESET virus protection, ran Malwarebytes - found/cleared 10, just ran ERUNT,
downloaded and ran Hijack this - log will be below.

For the past couple of months, computer has gotten slower and slower - There are days it just seems to 'churn' if that's a word.
Pages freeze, cursor freezes, windows won't close, open, end program box pops up repeatedly, hangs on booting up, just a little
bit of everything. Virus program runs quietly, always and even on demand scan finds nothing. Have tried to disable unnecessary
start-ups - but that's just a temp fix. Something is really messed up and I can't locate it. Can you please help?? Thanks so much
for your expertise…

Stay with this topic until I give you the all clean post.

You might want to print these instructions out.

I suggest you do this:

Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Clear "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Clear "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.


Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.


Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.

Next:

Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.

  • Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
  • At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
  • If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
  • Once the program has loaded, select Perform quick scan, then click Scan.
  • When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
  • Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected .
  • When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location and post the results.
  • Note: If you receive a notice that some of the items couldn't be removed, that they have been added to the delete on reboot list, please reboot.
Also "copy/paste" a new HijackThis log file into this thread.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
Thanks for your help LDT!

As far as behavior - clicking on IE to open in new window - it just sits there several seconds on my home page - very slow loading and opening. Checked on Task Manager and saw that "system Idle process" takes 98-100% cpu's? -
clicking on web news link - takes a long time to open. Shut down computer the other day and walked off, thinking it would continue to shut down. Stupidly did not check - and it had 'hung' on some task - can't remember now what program was failing to close. Had to be out of town a few days and do not leave computer on over a long weekend. But it had failed to shut down.
Had been using a selective startup to facilitate faster loading - but since I'm having a problem knowing what I can safely delete - programs have been enabled to do a normal boot up. Maybe there's just a combo of a lot of small things. Like just now - in typing this - mail program notified me mail was received - this cursor froze and it was several seconds before I could complete typing this sentence.

I will respond to any further instructions later tonight or first thing in the morning.

Night,
Ash

LDT - Interesting to look this list over. Couple of things pop out at me - Symantec - I've tried to get rid of this a gazillion times - Google updater - do I need this? And what? is Juniper? I see it linked somehow with vista - care? Used to work for them two years ago - where is this coming from? I definitely do not need a lot of the things that seem to be loading - Again - appreciate your expertise and help!
I don't see any Symantec files.


If you don't need / use them, lets get rid of them.

Copy/paste the text in the Codebox below into notepad:

Here's how to do that:
Click Start > Run type Notepad click OK.
This will open an empty notepad file:

Take your mouse, and place your cursor at the beginning of the text in the box below, then click and hold the left mouse button, while pulling your mouse over the text. This should highlight the text. Now release the left mouse button. Now, with the cursor over the highlighted text, right click the mouse for options, and select 'copy'. Now over the empty Notepad box, right click your mouse again, and select 'paste' and you will have copied and pasted the text.

Save this file to your desktop, Save this as "CFScript"

Here's how to do that:
1.Click File;
2.Click Save As… Change the directory to your desktop;
3.Change the Save as type to "All Files";
4.Type in the file name: CFScript
5.Click Save …


[external image: Posted Image]

Drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe

Then post the results log and a new HijackThis log.


Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
'How my computer BEHAVES at the moment???"

Well - it's in the corner….

Ooookkkaaaaayyy - Sir LDT -
a little weirdness here I can't explain - (but I'm sure you've heard it all, right?)
Am writing this on a blank email in hopes it saves in case I can't get back to being 'online' - hopefully I can paste it in…

Followed your directions to a T - (that's what they all say, right?) But seriously…
your instructions weren't that complicated.

cut/pasted the CF script as directed - drug to Combo fix - it did it's thing (I thought)
Then went to HJT to do a scan and up pops this navy blue box informing me that Combofix had a NEW, AND IMPROVED VERSION AND DID I WANT TO DOWNLOAD THIS ASAP (and if I did, I'd get a set of Ginzu knives….) (courtesy of bleepcompterwhatever) so
since I had to respond - I said "Well, sure…" so it did - and then it suddenly goes through all its stuff and says it's searching for infected files, blah, blah -
So I go drink a glass of wine and when I return - I have this long scan in notepad - and a non-responding computer screen -
I have to turn off manually in order to reboot.

And now I'm here.

But while I was getting to 'here' - Combofix hands me the navy blue screen again and tells me it's preparing a log report (just saw this) and "Do not do run any program until Combofix has finished."
Yeah, right…
Which is too late - because I started typing this note before it did this little deal.

So what next, my learned friend?

——————————————

ok - here's the combofix results it just popped up and gave me….which I saved to desktop -

So now - give me new (the same) instructions again?

Oh yes - something else on the behavior 'issue' of this computer.

My CLOCK in the right side lower corner - had 'reset' itself to military time - which is no problem for me - but odd - and then - suddenly - it's back to 9:21pm instead of 21:21.
Any clue here?

Eagerly awaiting your reply :)
Here's where I saw Symantec - this time, above: 2008-09-03 02:52 . 2003-04-10 05:50 d——– C:\Documents and Settings\Guest\Application Data\Symantec and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center\Monitoring\SymantecAntiVirus] "DisableMonitoring"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center\Monitoring\SymantecFirewall] "DisableMonitoring"=dword:00000001
Combofix changes the clock but should revert back to normal after the fix.
Lets give it another shot.

Copy/paste the text in the Codebox below into notepad:

Here's how to do that:
Click Start > Run type Notepad click OK.
This will open an empty notepad file:

Take your mouse, and place your cursor at the beginning of the text in the box below, then click and hold the left mouse button, while pulling your mouse over the text. This should highlight the text. Now release the left mouse button. Now, with the cursor over the highlighted text, right click the mouse for options, and select 'copy'. Now over the empty Notepad box, right click your mouse again, and select 'paste' and you will have copied and pasted the text.

Save this file to your desktop, Save this as "CFScript"

Here's how to do that:
1.Click File;
2.Click Save As… Change the directory to your desktop;
3.Change the Save as type to "All Files";
4.Type in the file name: CFScript
5.Click Save …


[external image: Posted Image]

Drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe

Then post the results log and a new HijackThis log.


Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
OK - I'm truly feeling inept here.

I followed directions -

into new notepad - saved to desktop - drug to Combo Icon….it flashed a couple of times - did the little progress square and then -
nothing. No log produced - nothing -

I clicked 'open' and….did the little progress box again.

So - I started over - went back up a couple of posts when we started the combo thing.
Deleted from desktop

re-downloaded to desktop -

There was NO prompts - just another progress line again - then nothing -

pop-up kept asking me if I wanted to trust this site and 'run'
said yes -
nothing.

repeated copy/paste/notepad to combo icon -

and it continued as before.

————————————————————————————–

I'll post another HJT log here just in case something changed - but I think you need to help me start this process over, LDT -
sorry -


And question?

When you have me copy the CODE in the small box on your post - is it JUST those 9 lines? seems like there should be more - but that's why you are doing what you are doing and I'm sitting here dazed and confused.

Let's try this again please? :mellow:

Yes. Just the lines inside the Code Box.

Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review

****Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall or freeze ****

*If there is no internet connection when Combofix has completely finished then restart your computer to restore back the connections.

Give it atleast 20-30 minutes to finish if needed.
LDT - I'm sorry my last note was confusing. I have done - again - everything you have said in your past two posts.
Nothing at all is happening when I drag the pasted code notepad page over to the Combo fix icon on my desktop. A small
progress line flashes for a second or two - then nothing. No log - no other box - no box pops up other than the one asking if I want to trust this site - Run or Cancel.

Can I un-install combofix and re-install it? It does not seem to be working like it did the first time I used it. :(

Can I un-install combofix and re-install it? It does not seem to be working like it did the first time I used it.

Yes.

    Download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

    In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download.
    It must be saved directly to your desktop.



    1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.

    • Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan.
    • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
    • Remember to re enable the protection again afterwards before connecting to the net

    2. Close any open browsers and make sure you are disconnected from the net. Unplug the cable if need be before running combofix.
    • IF you have not already done so Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet when it starts.
    • If there is no internet connection when Combofix has completely finished then restart your computer to restore back the connections.

    3. Now double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    When finished, it will produce a report for you.
    Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review

    Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall or freeze.
    Give it atleast 20-30 minutes to finish if needed.
