Virus scan gets busy when I have IE open (I'm running mozilla right now). Here's the hijack this! log file.

1) This computer has trouble running Photoshop. I bought it specifically for graphics programs (Being a gaming laptop I thought it would be capable) I did my final year of high school, hardly using Photoshop at all (But it worked all the same) and then as I finished high school and the warranty expired it stopped. What happens: I open Photoshop, it opens fine. I try to create a new file or open one and nothing happens. Sometimes if I'm lucky and I repetitively open a file it will open, but when I attempt to draw the line will delete itself. I have heard of Wireless adapters and Printers interfering with it, but that seems to not be the case. I have formatted twice and still no fix. I thought this was just a general Photoshop problem, I installed the trial, a legit version of PS7, a cracked version of CS2 and CS3, and still nothing (Don't worry, I deleted all photoshop files in between installs)Now Zbrush won't open, Corel Painter has trouble and Paintshop pro is also having problems. This computer hates me! I also have other problems: My computer has never been able to drag and drop. I have installed the registry entries for it, checked my start panel options, upgraded mouse drivers, bought at least 3 mice and still nothing. I can drag and drop on some programs such as RocketDock, but never on the desktop or within folders. When I start up the computer everything freezes and all popups close when I click on them automatically until I click the FN key. Sometimes when I'm talking on MSN or a similar program the window will just close without warning and I can't open any file until I click the FN key. Every now and then I get a BSOD with a Kernal inscreen error from Atapi.sys - Even after formatting twice I've tried everything. I have upgraded drivers (All of them as far as I know, even updated the Bios last time) formatted, searched for hours online, contacted Asus (They told me to contact Adobe who told me to contact Asus). This computer was surely a waste of $2000.
My pc was working just fine a few days ago then last night i go on it was just dragging.Everything was loading slow despite the fact i have even firefox was loading slow which it never does.Anyway i asked my sister who was the last one on if she clicked on anything but no surprise the reply was I didn't do anything so i guess it was a ghost .I ran NAV but nothing found then again NAV doesn't seem to find anything
Im using FireFox instead of IE now. But everytime I start the program it takes some time to start. A lot longer then IE does... Why is that and is there a way to fix that
I used Mozilla as my browser until I upgraded to Windows xp a few days ago. I can no longer use Mozilla because all the icons are gone and there are strange, overlapping words for what used to be the menu bar. When I click on one, such as "bookmarks," I get nothing but a solid black box open on my screen. I am okay with using Internet Explorer, but I would like to be able to import my bookmarks from Mozilla.
the following URL displays an animated gif image when viewed on RedHat 9.0 and windows 2000 in both IE 6, firefox and mozilla. It does not view on any of my three windows xp machines using IE 6 or firefox
Mozilla Firefox freezing on me. I keep shutting down and rebooting, I have tried uninstalling and einstalling version 3.63. I have also tried system restore Often it doesn't load properly I just get the minimised box and cannot get it to full size.I am at my wit's end. have avast antivirus and zone alarm firewall free versions of both.
While I tried to uninstall mozilla thro the uninstall icon of its main folder in C, (It is not appearing under add/remove programme I get an error msg.
If I press the "home" button, the active window goes "home" but a new tab is opened with "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" in it. This happens every time I press the "home" button. Can I stop it opening the new tab?
(for example neverwinter nights) heading- nwn.exe - Application Error body- The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application.that message is comming up whenvever i start most of my applications ( neverwinter nights, sims 2, Rise of nations, norton anti virus, and many others) doesnt come up for AIM, mozilla, media monkey, and IE I have tried deleting all temp files and the such using CCLEANER, I did a spyware search with ADaware and Spybot, installed directx 9.0c, and updated my video card drivers... unfortunatly reformating is not an option. if anybody could help me out it would be much appreatied(or how ever you spell it)
I have internet explorer as default browser and want to make mozilla firefox default. Ive downloaded mozilla firefox easily enough but I cant see how to make it default in place of IE. Ive also tried to delete the Mozilla Firefox download in order to try again, but will not let me delete as I dont have sufficient admin acess, which surprises me as its always been my computer.
On the Mozilla Firefox browser I have a blank toolbar right below the two toolbars that I specified. The deletion option is not there. How would I get rid of that extra toolbar
I love MF but I cannot use it because I sell on Ebay and it won't let me use any of the tools for formating. Fonts, color etc. and I need that for description purposes. So I guess I will have to go back to IE and fight all the crap unless someone has another suggestion. I have Windows xp home edition.
I am using the Mozilla Firefox browser and aside from security/virus issues I also wanted this browser because somewhere along the line, I read somewhere that it had a spell checker. I have looked through their extensions website but didn't find an English dictionary, found several languages out there but not English.
i open Internet on firefox the page shows the promoted videos with empty boxes instead of pictures. below each box is the heading discribing what the video is about. if i click on the featured videos i get the same thing. no pictures in the boxes. i tried asking through the Internet general help questions but had no success.in internet explorer i don't have this problem. i use mozilla firefox most of the time. it seems to be alittle faster than internet explorer.i even did a uninstall- reinstall of mozilla firefox.
using Mozilla firefox as my default browser. I have developed a problem wherein when I click on the x in the upper right corner, or the minus sign or the enlarge box, I get no response. I can still easily shut firefox down through File> exit or through task manager (end Task) but not throughthe upper right signs. I uninstalled firefox 1.5 which I had been using and installed firefox 2.0 but the same things happen.
I need help finding my bookmarks. I have read all the previous posts on the subject in the XP forums and nothing is working. I haven't found any file named BOOKMARKS.HTML , file is not found!. I have XP SP2. I just got up this morning and they were gone, They worked last night,cuz I entered about 5 new entries. Is it possible that one of these new entries was infected or something?
A few days ago Mozilla Firefox would hang/freeze while on the net. The hang/freeze would last only a few seconds to start with and go back to normal working behaviour but the hangs will extend to minutes then to a complete freeze. I use dial-up and noticed that after opening the browser data would be sent and received even when no inputs where made. Nothing was detected by AdAware Se, ZoneAlarm, Spybot S&D, F-Secure Blacklight, AVG 7.5 Virus or HiJackThis!.
Bought my daughter a new inspiron mini, it is only a month old.For starters it will no longer open Firefox. I reloaded Firefox and it still does the same thing, nothing happens, then a crash message from Mozilla.The machine is running real sluggish, and efforts to use "restore" are not working. I tried four different restore points, going back to the first and restore goes through the motions, reboots, then I get a message that say the machine was unable to restore, no changes were made.
I updated the site and now when I open Firefox it's just a blank page. No errors are displayed. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it's still the same. The Internet Exlporer works but I rather use Firefox.
I was surfing and I clicked on a link and it froze my pc. After that my Mozilla FoxFire browser froze as well. I cleaned the cache on the browser and when I went to open it, the browser asked for a profile like netscape does???? All of my bookmarks are gone. I thought to correct the problem with system restore but everytime I try to use it no matter how far back I go the pc can not use the restore points?
Resolved a SpySheriff problem yesterday through Security forum and now having a Mozilla problem, Techguy suggested a post here to try and resolve it.On XP SP2. Upgraded to newest Mozilla 2 days ago. Since then keep getting 'Illegal Operation in Plug-in Shockwave Flash' This pops up repeatedly and after few times being closed it shuts down Mozilla.
I have Java on my computer, but when I click on certain buttons to submit something on a webpage in IE, the webpages won't open. All my other hyperlinks will work when I click on them. I thought this was a java problem because when I put my mouse on the buttons to click them, I see a "javascript" code on the bottom bar of IE. I have set all the settings to "default" in IE. This only happens on the buttons that I hit when I am entering info for some online form, such as to book a ticket
I am on an administrator account Windows XP Professional. I have JRE 5.0 update 8 installed, yet when I try to go to websites that use it with either Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.8 or with Internet Explorer, it tells me 'you need to install this plugin. I click install, and it starts an install JRE 5 update 6 or 7, different half the time but then it tells me You already have this installed. So I hit refresh, and it asks me to install it again.
