I realized that my first post didn't conform to the rules specified in the Sticky Thread about how to submit posts here. Sorry about that. Here's a second attempt...

I'm totally stumped. Here's the symptoms:


Trying to access/scan Windows/System32 folder ALWAYS results in an automatic shut down without warning. Using DOS "dir" commands has the same result. I can search for specific files or wildcards in the Sys32 folder, but that's about it.
System, especially after rebooting, runs extremely slow.
There is network activity even though I don't have a web browser open. Task Manager says that IE is running, even when I know it shouldn't be.
Doing a system scan with Silent Runners or Spybot results in a fast shut-down, no warning.


All this mess started yesterday and there were a slew of other malware bots running, most of which I killed off last night. But this last one is persistent and simply doesn't want to be found, no matter how hard I try. I am posting the two most comprehensive scan logs I have available before the shut-down problem started occurring (it is a recent issue). Any insight or guidance on this troubling and frustrating problem would be met with every ounce of gratitude I can muster.

Here's the HJT log:

hi NightShadow07,

first we will remove malware, (in safe mode)
update ad aware, and spybot. i dont see a antivirus application in the log, do you have one?
i would remove this via add/remove programs panel:
BugKiller.exe
----------------------------
i would copy/paste this into notepad and save it somewhere like your desktop so you can read it in safe mode. to reach safe mode you would tap the f8 key during a computer restart, chose the first option: safe mode.

once in safe mode:
scan with HJT, put a checkmark beside the items below, close all windows and click fix checked.

Thanks for the assistance, but it came just a little too late, unfortunately. I wiped my system this morning and am starting with a completely fresh install of EVERYTHING. I was getting correspondence from my ISP, telling me that my system was being used to send out SPAM. As someone who has a white-hot hatred for SPAM and those who send it out, I just couldn't let things sit any longer.

It's better this way, actually. I can rebuild my system the way I want to with a completely new outlook on things. Yes, I will install HJT, Spybot, ZoneAlarm, AdAware and some anti-virus software all at the beginning so that I won't get caught with my pants around my ankles again.

Anyway... I hope I don't have to seek help from ya'll again anytime soon. I know you provide a good, free service to lots of people. You have my highest regards and respect for all that you do for so many.

Keep on keepin' on!
