hello,

all of a sudden my laptop has developed this problem of not shutting down properly. It can take up to 20 minutes to shut down. i just dont know what could be wrong with it! and most of the time i get a message when I click on "turn off" saying that windows is ending a process (or program) called "CCAPP.EXE" and ive seen this message a lot but the name "CCAPP.EXE" has never been in capitals before...could it be a virus? because it's usually "ccApp.exe" or something isnt it? i dont know...but whatever it is, the computer was having trouble shutting down before this message began appearing so I dont think its necessarily directly connected to this.

please help because this is driving me insane!
heres a HJT log:

ccApp.exe is the common hosting application that is used by both Norton AntiVirus and Norton Internet Security.

There is also this link: WINDOWS SHUTDOWN & RESTART CENTER TROUBLESHOOTING in 15 STEPS

http://www.aumha.org/win4/a/shutdown.php

As to HijackThis I will move this over to that section. If your log is cleared & the problem persists please start another thread back in the XP section.

Hi and welcome,

Your log is clean but if you want to do some virus scans while you are here to check this to be sure here they are:


Lets see what some virus scans can uncover and we will go from there.

Get the stinger here:
http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

Download it to another computer if need be, and bring it to the affected computer on floppy disk.

It will kill the top 53 virus files if any are found there

then,

Internet Explorer required
Run these two online virus scanners (Panda Activescan) following these instructions below:
http://www.pandasoftware.com/product..._principal.htm


Internet Explorer required
Also this excellent(BitDefender) scanner:http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html

These scans will take an hour or two to complete.
Save the Panda scan log and the Bitdefender scan log if anything was found and post them back here please.

Plus if you don't have these two spyware programs below you really do need them.

Please get these two spyware programs if you don't already have them.

SpyBotS&D

AdawareSE


Reboot between scans and after last scan



There is a new and improved version of AdAware that you need to have installed on your computer. The new version is AdAware SE
If you have AdAware already installed on your system and it's NOT SE go to your Control Panel and click on Add/Remove Programs. Click on AdAware and then REMOVE and then just complete the removal process.

Once it's un-installed go to http://www.lavasoft.de/ and download the FREE version of AdAware SE. Once it's downloaded double click on the new file to start the install process.
Click Next>I accept>Next>Next> then be sure and put a dot in the bullet for Anyone Who uses this computer and then click Next>Next>

In the next dialog box remove the dot in the bullets "Start Scan" and also "Launch Help Files" and click Finish

Now if the program doesn't launch double click on the icon that should now be on your desktop to start AdAware SE

Now click on the button for Check for Updates
If updates are found click on the OK button and after it downloads to 100% click on the Finish button.

Click the Start Button
Click on the link for Customize

Then click on the button at the bottom right labeled Proceed then click the Next button to start scanning.

Once the scan is complete you'll have a flashing Bug and a brief sound to indicate scanning is complete and Adware is found. Click on the Next and then click on each of the empty boxes to the left of the found items under SCAN SUMMARY. Then hit the Next button. Then OK. This should clean your system of all the found nasties. When it's complete simply close the program until your next scan session. Always ALWAYS check for updates before very scan.
