I got the following problem with Windows Vista: It is just crashing now and then in different applications. Everything gets semi-white and I cannot click anything. Another thing: In my taskmanager i got 13 svchost.exe. This cant be normal, can it? half is SYSTEM, a quarter LOCAL SERVICE and a quarter NETWORK SERVICE. Anybody can relate that to my log and give suggestions? This is my log: — in my msconfig are only 2 items: my Touchpad 'Alps Pointing Device' and my antivirus software 'AVK' — Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2 Scan saved at 20:45:52, on 28.01.2009 Platform: Windows Vista SP1 (WinNT 6.00.1905) MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6001.18000) Boot mode: Normal Running processes: C:\Windows\system32\Dwm.exe C:\Windows\Explorer.EXE C:\Windows\system32\taskeng.exe C:\Program Files\Apoint\Apoint.exe C:\Program Files\AntiVirenKit\AVKTray\AVKTray.exe C:\Program Files\Apoint\ApMsgFwd.exe C:\Program Files\Apoint\Apntex.exe C:\Program Files\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = about:blank R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = about:blank R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch = R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName = O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Apoint] C:\Program Files\Apoint\Apoint.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [AVKTray] "C:\Program Files\AntiVirenKit\AVKTray\AVKTray.exe" O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-19\..\Run: [Sidebar] %ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\Sidebar.exe /detectMem (User 'LOCAL SERVICE') O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-19\..\Run: [WindowsWelcomeCenter] rundll32.exe oobefldr.dll,ShowWelcomeCenter (User 'LOCAL SERVICE') O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-20\..\Run: [Sidebar] %ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\Sidebar.exe /detectMem (User 'NETWORK SERVICE') O8 - Extra context menu item: An vorhandene PDF-Datei anfügen - res://C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroIEFavClient.dll/AcroIEAppend.html O8 - Extra context menu item: E&xport to Microsoft Excel - res://c:\program files\microsoft office\office12\excel.exe/3000 O8 - Extra context menu item: In Adobe PDF konvertieren - res://C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroIEFavClient.dll/AcroIECapture.html O8 - Extra context menu item: Linkziel an vorhandene PDF-Datei anhängen - res://C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroIEFavClient.dll/AcroIEAppendSelLinks.html O8 - Extra context menu item: Linkziel in Adobe PDF konvertieren - res://C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroIEFavClient.dll/AcroIECaptureSelLinks.html O8 - Extra context menu item: Nach Microsoft E&xel exportieren - res://C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\Office12\EXCEL.EXE/3000 O13 - Gopher Prefix: O16 - DPF: {E06E2E99-0AA1-11D4-ABA6-0060082AA75C} - O18 - Protocol: grooveLocalGWS - {88FED34C-F0CA-4636-A375-3CB6248B04CD} - C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\GrooveSystemServices.dll O18 - Protocol: skype4com - {FFC8B962-9B40-4DFF-9458-1830C7DD7F5D} - C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\Skype\SKYPE4~1.DLL O23 - Service: Lavasoft Ad-Aware Service (aawservice) - Lavasoft - C:\Program Files\Ad-Aware\aawservice.exe O23 - Service: AVKProxy - G DATA Software AG - C:\Program Files\Common Files\G DATA\AVKProxy\AVKProxy.exe O23 - Service: AVK Service (AVKService) - G DATA Software AG - C:\Program Files\AntiVirenKit\AVK\AVKService.exe O23 - Service: AVK Wächter (AVKWCtl) - G DATA Software AG - C:\Program Files\AntiVirenKit\AVK\AVKWCtl.exe O23 - Service: ##Id_String1.6844F930_1628_4223_B5CC_5BB94B879762## (Bonjour Service) - Apple Computer, Inc. - C:\Program Files\Bonjour\mDNSResponder.exe O23 - Service: FLEXnet Licensing Service - Acresso Software Inc. - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Macrovision Shared\FLEXnet Publisher\FNPLicensingService.exe O23 - Service: Google Updater Service (gusvc) - Google - C:\Program Files\Google\Common\Google Updater\GoogleUpdaterService.exe O23 - Service: InstallDriver Table Manager (IDriverT) - Macrovision Corporation - C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver\1050\Intel 32\IDriverT.exe O23 - Service: Linksys Updater (LinksysUpdater) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Linksys\Linksys Updater\bin\LinksysUpdater.exe O23 - Service: Pure Networks Platform Service (nmservice) - Pure Networks, Inc. - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Pure Networks Shared\Platform\nmsrvc.exe O23 - Service: Cyberlink RichVideo Service(CRVS) (RichVideo) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\Cyberlink\Shared files\RichVideo.exe O23 - Service: Remote Packet Capture Protocol v.0 (experimental) (rpcapd) - CACE Technologies - C:\Program Files\WinPcap\rpcapd.exe O23 - Service: SigmaTel Audio Service (STacSV) - SigmaTel, Inc. - C:\Windows\system32\stacsv.exe O23 - Service: TOSHIBA Bluetooth Service - TOSHIBA CORPORATION - C:\Program Files\Toshiba\Bluetooth Toshiba Stack\TosBtSrv.exe O23 - Service: XAudioService - Conexant Systems, Inc. - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\xaudio.exe – End of file - 4569 bytes
Hi, and Welcome to WhatTheTech :)

Apologies in the delay in a response. We are overwhelmed with logs at the moment and there aren't enough helpers to go around. If you still require help, please do the following:

Please download DDS and save it to your desktop.
  • Disable any script blocking protection
  • Double click dds.scr to run the tool.
  • When done, DDS.txt will open.
  • Click Yes at the next prompt for Optional Scan.
  • Save both reports to your desktop.
—————————————————
  • Post the contents of the DDS.txt report in your next reply
  • Attach the Attach.txt report to your post by scrolling down to the Attachments area and then clicking Browse. Browse to where you saved the file, and click Open and then click UPLOAD.
Please describe how your computer is behaving at the moment, listing any symptoms and problems that you are experiencing.

Thanks.
