other day my desktop came down with something. windows has slowed to a crawl.. if i click on the start menu, 2 minutes later it will pop up. if i click on a program (firefox, for example) it will never open and the whole comp will just sit there frozen forever.. if i leave it for a few hours like that, firefox will have finally opened.. once in firefox.. it seems i can move about a bit quicker.. but its still unbearably slow. in (advanced) processes menu everything is fine, and the cpu level seems to be where it should be, nothing using up all the cpu that i can see.. after a restart (by holdiong the power button down), i can move around normally for about 1-2 minutes then it basically freezes up again. next i went on my laptop to look up names of processes (to see what they do) and 10 minutes later, the laptop is doing the SAME THING.also, my friends computer seems to be doing the same thing. I was sending some emails with attachemtns to him recently. (eMail worm?)
i can only get them to function in safe mode, and the weird thing is.. bit-defender says its clean of viruses, and ive used search&destroy, spysweeper, ad-aware, and nod32 to clean out most stuff.. but nothing seems to help. also, it seems that S&D will find a bunch of stuff and clear it out fine, and if I run the check again immediately after it finds the same bad stuff again. this is only in regular mode, in safe mode it finds nothing.
I admit I screwed up. Ventured off onto another page looking for something (andr) I think and I caught something. So I have cleaned what I can but I am still getting a lot if pop ups. I did also get hooked with spysherriff. As I type I have a total of 15 IE pages opened mow. Have to keep closing. I am running Trend Micro housecall.antivirus and along with AVG. But no help. I am including a log of Hijack this as well as Rootkit Revealer. I don't know where else to turn................
There is an unwanted background on my desktop.It is a warning that my computer might be infected with a virus and I suspect that the virus or pop up program actually switched to this file from my previous background, which I would like to restore.I have tried but when I go into Display and Desktop and Background, I can not choose any of the selections. This is a vexing problem, the security warning currently set as the background is ugly.
as the title says I was infected with a bunch of random stuff. I cleaned it or at least I think I did. but now explorer is crashing all the time. the shell, not the browser. HJT log.

computer is infected from a malicious program which always prompt to download a antimalware program. it happened when my friend tried to browse a porno site, nfortunately, my pc doesn't have antivirus or any internet protection... what should i do? when i open my internet explorer, it gives me a new defualt home page which informs me that my computer is infected and i have to buy their software to eliminate the problem. i believe my internet explorer is infected with a malware virus
my system is been infected with virus win32 virut most of them occured in my .exe files... i tried to reformat and install win xp pro but its all the same avast detected the virus and i tried to moved them to vault or chest but after that i can't open the programs like explorer, run, add and remove and so on.
the last few days i have had trouble with my computer we keep getting a windows no disk error i have run avg and it did find some infected files like one called onoes.exe could some one help me please im also trying to get my java staightened out and with this not acting right i cant and my oldest uses the computer for homework.
a few weeks ago my computer was infected with trojan.cachecachekit virus, which was associated wit the file rdriv.sys...and people have kindly lend a hand to help out. now we're back again, just now, Norton Client Security has found that this virus is in the C:System Volume Information\_restore{A0E6BDC3-F1EA-4DCD-AE99-B4951F851FC7}RP2A0000081.sys
My son was downloading something on the computer last night and he said all these pop ups came up and now on the task bar there is an icon , a shield with a x in the center that says your computer is infected. When I click on ok it says would you like to update your security software and install registry cleaner? Once in a while it keeps popping up from that icon that my computer has detected spyware infection and has corrupted the registry. Virus program shows nothing, well it showed threat of bloodhound and said it cleaned it but that is it. How do I get this off my taskbar and how do I get all the icons off that I dont want to run.
I hava a PC with Windows XP Proffesional 1.6GHz P4 with 384 Mb RAM. I have 2 harddrivers 1) 40Gb Total 10Gb Free 2) 120 Gb total 92Gb Free. It has worked very very well for a couple of years but in the latest month it has become so slow. I have been infected with spyware and as everyone else that used IE been hijacked but I have removed all those programs and adds regarding "Hijack"
What happens everytime I, for example, end a program is that all the icons on my desktop disapear and one after one is coming back first with a "system icon" then it get its natural look. Another example is that it takes so long time to start the webbrowser (FireFox). I really don't know what can be wrong,
I definitley have some sort of virus on my computer and all sorts of pop ups keep coming up on my computer encouraging me to buy a program. I can't get to any other websites besides the one for this program as an alert pops up on the browser sayng my computer is infected. Also everytime I try to open a file a "Windows Security Alert" pops up and says that whatever file I sm trying to open is infected. This is a probloem because I have tried opening task manager, system configuration, and even using the run function wiuth different commands and nothing will open! I also tried downloaging Ad-aware on my external harddrive and then running it from there but it won't open either!
Laptop was infected by the SpyBot@MXT trojan and Spy.Win32@mx trojan. I keep getting the system alert icon and the yellow triange with the black exclamation point in it. I also get iexplorer pop ups to download spyware programs.
A friend of mine called me moments ago to tell me that she got a message from Windows Security Center on her desktop that the computer has been infected with spyware and to take necessary actions by downloading the latest Windows updates. She told me she saw win32res.exe was the cause of this.
I had a message that my PC is infected by Spyware/adware this morning and it took me to PSGuard.com to install something to disinfect my PC. is it OK to use this or should I use something else?
I am servicing computers everyday for both business and home users and the vast amount of computers are infected with this whole family of viruses by names like Personal Security, Window Anti-virus, Antivirus7, Security Guard etc.I see these ransom-ware infections getting past everything from the free Anti-virus programs to the most expensive anti-virus programs, especially with home computers that are use for Entertainment Purposes and always because the users were browsing the Internet and are tricked into clicking on a fake warning of infection or security risk. Once they are tricked into that initial click, life goes downhill rapidly as the infection installs itself and then takes deeper root as the user clicks on subsequent fake screens. If they don't register the fake program, it will proceed to convince them to register by progressively turning off more and more Windows features.My question to the knowledgeable users of this forum is:Does anyone know of an antivirus/spyware program or combination of programs that can catch these infections as they initially try to install from that first ill-fated click while browsing the Internet?I have tried all the Big names to varying degrees of disappointing success.Would registered versions of MalWarebytes or Super AntiSpyware be effective?
I reformatted a friend's computer and reinstalled XP from the disk. Rather than mess around with SP2 I went ahead and installed SP3 afterwards. When it was in the process of installing the IE (whatever one comes with it), the MSRT tool cropped up and found over 435 files that were "infected".
i have avast antivirus installed and i keep getting warnings about impotato win dialer thingy and i keep getting bogus warnings about being infected with spyware from spy falcon and than i keep gettin warnings from avast with various viruses that include Win32:Trojano-CL [Trj]. Ive tried everything that i can think of ive ran avast, ad-aware, avg, ewido, spybot and cleaned out all my temp files and i just dont know what to do anymore
My laptop, a Toshiba, running XP Home, became infected and it had Norton's pre-installed [she never updated it].It barely booted and eventually I uninstalled it and have since ran a MULTITUDE of anti virus apps in an attempt to clean the poor thing: Panda, AVG, McAfee, they all did half a job and sometimes even gave up. Avast and Spybot seem to have done the trick... or... have they? The laptop is still snoozing and crashing everytime I open a browser. I don't know what to do.
I desperately need help.I have been infected by NetWorm-i.virus@fp,w32.myzor.fk@yf,psw.x-vir spyware,cyberlog-x and w32.myzor.fk@yf. I dont know anything about computers and I dont have a clue about removing these viruses.
i just got a couple viruses, my antivirus isnt working out very well, i just installed norton which doesnt think im connected to the internet so i cant get the new virus deffs. Anyways, i need to get these off my coputer because they load many pop ups as well as starting me at odd start pages. i ran ad-aware, spyware blaster, search and destroy and cwshredder...it remain
I have a WindowsXP. My computer won't let me open any programs and won't download any programs either. I've tried to open Spybot but it immediately dissapoears. Also i've tried to download Hijackthis and my computer won't let it download. Soon after the download window dissapears as well. My internet is working fine, it's just the programs that won't seem to open up. Am i infected? If there isn't any solution should i just re-format my computer? Don't know how else to show without the log.
I am getting an error message from AOL safety. It reads "We found and were not able to clean or block a virus infected file. (C:windowssystem32winlogon.exe) My operating system is Windows XP.
