    I am not seeing any issues in your HiJackThis LOG. Is your RAM memory at least 1GB and do you have plenty of free disk space?


    Your best option may be to try a system restore point (if available) to a date before any known problems or before you started performing any recent fixes?

    Click on Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore.

    Check Restore my computer to an earlier date> Click Next.

    Choose the date before you performed any recent fixes and click Next and Next again.




    Otherwise and in addition,

    Clean out TEMPORARY FILES procedures:
    To clean your temp folder, recycle bin, etc..please download this free tool:

    CCleaner http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbuilds.asp

    Install Options:
    • Don't install any Toolbars, or other programs, should it ask you!
    • Just uncheck the option of installing the Yahoo toolbar.

    It will put a shortcut on your Desktop.

    Do not run CCleaner until requested later.




    Run CCleaner in SAFE MODE (reboot tapping the F8 key after the beep).

    Select the ‘Options’ BUTTON option (top LEFT), ‘Advanced’ BUTTON, and then UNCHECK the ‘Only delete files in Windows Temp Folders older than 48 hours’.

    Select the ‘Cleaner’ BUTTON option (top LEFT), if not already selected. Use the ’Windows’ TAB up front by default.
    • Uncheck ‘Cookies’ option (advisable)
    • Optionally, Uncheck ‘Recently Typed URLs’ option (potentially still useful)
    • Click the ‘Analyse’ button.
    • Thereafter, click ‘Run Cleaner’ after you have reviewed what it proposes to clean.



    REBOOT into NORMAL MODE and post any current feedback on continuing issues.

    Please do not start a new topic for ongoing problems.

    A lot of people that use P2P (Peer-to-Peer) applications, such as BitComet, can run into problems like this - you simply cannot reliably trust the source of your downloads.


    Accordingly,

    Your best option may be to try a system restore point (if available) to a date before any known problems or before you started performing any recent fixes?

    Click on Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore.

    Check Restore my computer to an earlier date> Click Next.

    Choose the date before you performed any recent fixes and click Next and Next again.


    REBOOT, post a revised HijackThis LOG, and let us know how you made out.

    There are no issues evident in your current HijackThis LOG.




    Additionally, you could try running the following scan:

    We will be restarting into Safe Mode later on in the fix and you might not be able to access the Internet. Accordingly, it is probably a good idea to print out the following directions or copy them to a text file on your desktop using NOTEPAD. Read these instructions carefully and feel free to ask if you're unsure about anything.




    Download and install AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5 (AVG AS - formally known as Ewido anti-spyware 4.0 - uninstall any previous version first).
    • Click the Download BUTTON. On the next page click the Download now BUTTON.
    • Save and then install (Run) from the save location.
    • Open/Run AVG Anti-Spyware
    • Wait a few moments and AVG Anti-Spyware should Auto update itself (note date of last update). If it doesn't update, click the update ICON at top of screen:

    • Click on the Update now LINK at the top of the window
      • Click on the Start update button
      • Wait for the update to download and install
  8. This is very important to get the LATEST updates.
  9. Click on the Status ICON
    • Under "Your computers Security"
      Click change status on Resident shield to inactive (ONLY consider activation of that feature once you are clean)
  10. Click on the Scanner ICON at the top of the window
  11. Click on the Settings tab then select Recommended Actions and choose Quarantine
  12. When updating has finished. Close AVG Anti-Spyware.



  13. We will be using this tool in a later step.




    Reboot your computer in Safe Mode.
    • If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power.
    • Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
    • Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.
    • Ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
    • Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.
    • Login on your usual account.
    ______________________________


    Close ALL open Windows / Programs / Folders. Please start AVG Anti-Spyware , and run a full scan:
    • Click on the default Status ICON and select the Scan now LINK.

      OR

    • Click on the Scanner ICON . Select the Scan TAB.

      • Select Complete System Scan. AVG Anti-Spyware will now begin to scan your system.

    • If AVG Anti-Spyware finds anything it will list them in the Preview WINDOW:
      • Make sure that Set all elements to: shows Quarantine, if not click on the link and choose Quarantine from the popup menu.
      • Select Apply all actions at the bottom of the window (and the items found will be quarantined – and recoverable, if any items are needed back).

    • When the scan has completed, click on the Save Scan Report button and save the scan to your Desktop where it can be easily found.
    • Copy and paste the AVG Anti-Spyware scan results into your next post.
    • Close AVG Anti-Spyware.


    REBOOT and if malware fixes were made let us know how your PC is now behaving – any changes in behavior.





    Additionally,
    Freezing is more likely when one certain application and one or more others don't co-exist very well. Try to work backwards and disable (type --> MSCONFIG in Start>Run) or remove the last few applications that were added. Having said that, certain updates or bitcomet downloads may now have created unknown incompatibilities - I would not run Spy Sweeper at startup, for instance. Turn off optional programs for now to see if things can be made better - maybe snagit, bitcomit, Digital Asphyxia, optional components of Kaspersky except antivirus, etc.

    There are no evident issues in you current HijackThis LOG. Let us know if you think there are still ongoing issues.


    You had a similar freezing problem that you posted in July 2006.

    My observation is that freezing and odd behaviors often happen to users who run P2P applications (like BitComet). You are only one bad download from trouble courtesy of some untrustworthy SOB or download page script/imbedded content.

    As eventual issues do arise, many such users often go on a search for the ultimate infection protection tools (many of which are clearly unreliable or scumware themselves). Then there are those that start fiddling with their registry often making things even worse. Many such downloads and uninstalls later, there gets to be many leftovers, remnant or undetectible incompatibilities, and possible incomplete uninstall issues. It gets to the point that a complete reinstall may be the only reliable resolution for such unknowable and seemingly unresolvable issues.



    To help avoid serious infection again, please look carefully at this post for some excellent preventative measures. Prevention must be made the first line of defense to improve upon.



    ONLY ONCE you are as clean as possible from any needed cleanup steps - As a final cleanup step (after serious infection), it may be advisable to Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove any bad files that MAY have been backed up by Windows . The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing them. And, this is the only complete way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which could likely be infected, anyway.)

    PLEASE NOTE: you will need to log into your computer with an account that has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account. Accordingly and of further note; it can be very unsafe to run with admin rights on any PC that you browse the Internet with.


    (Windows XP)
    FOLDER LOCATION: c:\System Volume Information\_restore….
    To Turn OFF System Restore.
    1. Click the Start button.
    2. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    3. On the System Restore tab, check Turn off System Restore or Turn off System Restore on all drives.
    4. Click Apply.

    REBOOT.

    To Turn ON System Restore.
    1. Follow the steps in the previous section, but in step 3, uncheck Turn off System Restore or Turn off System Restore on all drives. Then click OK.
    2. Create new System Restore points.


    (Windows ME)
    FOLDER LOCATION: c:\_RESTORE\TEMP\….
    See the following link for instructions:
    http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...rc=sec_doc_nam




    To reduce the re-infection potential for malware and protect your PC against spyware, here are a few helpful suggestions:
    1. Keep Windows and Internet Explorer current with the latest critical security updates from Microsoft . This will patch many of the security holes through which attackers can gain access to your computer . You CANNOT complete this update using an alternate browser – you must use Internet Explorer.
      http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/v5co...t.aspx?ln=en-us
      http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.asp
      • http://www.securityfocus.com/news/11273
        If you surf to questionable (blockable) parts of the Web, you could encounter sites that compromise your PC without any user interaction. In experiments [reported Aug 2005], Microsoft identified 752 specific addresses owned by 287 Web sites that contain programs able to install themselves on a completely unpatched Windows XP system. Also, be aware that the WinXP Service Pack 2 was an update that focused almost exclusively on security. Also reported was that a fully patched Windows XP SP2 system cannot be compromised by any such discovered rogue Web sites.

    2. Run your antivirus software regularly, and to keep its definitions up-to-date. If you are thinking about switching (using a real-time AV tool only one at a time), there are some good free Antivirus programs that are decent, including AVG and Avast!.
      AVG: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1
      Avast: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

    3. In addition to using Ad-aware, consider using another free malware scanning/removal program :
      Adaware SE: http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Person...ubj=dl&tag=top5
      Spybot S&D: http://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-Dest...tml?tag=lst-0-1


      AVG Anti-Spyware : http://free.grisoft.com/doc/20/lng/us/tpl/v5


      Microsoft Windows Defender beta 2 : http://www.download.com/Microsoft-Wi...ml?tag=lst-0-1

    4. Consider using a free firewall if you are not already using one (use only one firewall at a time – normally you will need to disable the MS firewall). Some good free ones (for incoming and added outgoing traffic protection) are:
      Kerio Personal Firewall: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Kerio.cfm
      *** After 30 days, Kerio shuts down selected features, but will continue to run in 'free' mode.
      Zone Alarm: http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/comparison.jsp?lid=ho_za

      It is not a bad idea to also consider using a Router/Hardware firewall device where you have a High-Speed Internet access connection. A software firewall may occasionally need to be disabled or it gets/remains disabled by someone or something. Such an added layer of security consistency has a lot of merit to it.

    5. Consider using an alternate free browser for general web surfing but you must use IE for windows updates. The use of Firefox (or similar alternate) mitigates the many types of malware that are now possible when using IE ActiveX based components.
      Mozilla Firefox: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

    6. Consider increasing your browser security by using these programs:
      SpywareGuard will help protect your homepage from being hijacked: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html
      SpywareBlaster will increase browser protection by blocking access to thousands of known malware sites by adding them to IE's restricted sites zone. It essentially blocks known- bad ActiveX program items from being installed or running on your computer. Download it here: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
    7. A HOSTS file can block Internet access to thousands of known-bad sites by not allowing you any easy browser access to such sites knowingly or unknowingly. Use HJT to determine if a current HOSTS file exists and any contents therein:
      • Run the HiJackThis tool and select ‘Open the Misc Tools section’.
      • Next select ‘Open host file manager’ button.
      • Use the ‘Open in Notepad’ button in XP/W2K or use WORDPAD if necessary [type wordpad.exe in the RUN box (Start>Run)] and load the FILE PATH identified in HJT.
      • Go to http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.txt . # Read the initial instructions #. Copy and paste (append or replace) the RELEVANT host address entry contents of that file into Notepad or Wordpad and save the updated file contents.

    *Remember just like your primary anti-virus software, it is important to:
    • Keep all of these programs up-to-date (using auto-updates where possible), and
    • Use them on a regular (minimum weekly) basis.




    REALITY CHECK:
    • Who else uses your PC? What are the potential risks created by multiple (potentially loose cannon) users and why?
    • What about bad luck, simple mistakes, and bad browsing choices (SEE: www.siteadvisor.com and their BLOG)?
    • SEE: The Dangers of Popularity (for Popular SEARCH TERMS):
      http://blog.siteadvisor.com/2006/08/...pularity.shtml
      The correlation of search term popularity and search term riskiness illustrates how malicious activity tends to follow and exploit consumer behavior. Users demand "free," and bad actors flock to fill corresponding search results with their deceptive offerings. All too often, users don't realize the detrimental consequences of these sites until their systems crash from spyware or their inboxes become choked with spam.


    ABOVE ALL, it is most imperative that users exercise "safe surfing" habits such as banning or at least verifying email attachments (with scanning tools) before opening, and by not executing programs unless obtained from a trusted (or researched) source, etc.



    In general, always research any unfamiliar links or products that you might want to access or download. In particular, the SiteAdvisor site and other links listed in my signature have continued to make a significant difference to my clients’ PC health due to better-informed browsing habits and choices. Peer-to-Peer and FREE download sites add a level of risk that many should seriously take into account and adjust their behavior accordingly.

    Additionally, TEMPORARY files are both a significant source of clutter and potential hiding places for MALWARE content. Clean out those areas periodically - at least weekly.




    Those that continue to want to use ‘Limewire’, 'BitTorrent', 'Bearshare', ‘Morpheus’ or other P2P applications, can expect to see the possibility of more malware issues (such as bad executables):

    http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/bearshare.com


    You would be well-advised to at least consider strengthening your real-time prevention tools and use either Spy Sweeper or Spyware Doctor, and possibly also run AVG Anti-Spyware - formally known as EWIDO (mainly for anti-trojan defensive purposes) in real-time, as well (paid version=realtime). No combination of tools, however, can ever be completely fail-safe for all possible issues.

    hi Vopthis as i dont knowyour name?thankyou for you advice which for anyone else reading is great advice!!
    when through all of this and yes below is so true

    As eventual issues do arise, many such users often go on a search for the ultimate infection protection tools (many of which are clearly unreliable or scumware themselves). Then there are those that start fiddling with their registry often making things even worse. Many such downloads and uninstalls later, there gets to be many leftovers, remnant or undetectible incompatibilities, and possible incomplete uninstall issues. It gets to the point that a complete reinstall may be the only reliable resolution for such unknowable and seemingly unresolvable issues.

    i have done this myself....and ended up doing complete reinstalls of everything so that is true ...."if things are running smoothe on pc .. LEAVE IT !
    done everything else or have took information in ...only thing im not too surec about is were do you save HOSTS file ?????
