Hi.

Im having an issue with Internet explorer. It takes very long just to load an web page. About 20 seconds for google and lets be honest google does not have much pictures on its page. Im on 20mb (internet speed). Ive been to www.speedtest.net to test my internet speed. It said i was getting 15560kbps so about 15.5mb. So i tried to download something using internet explorer. When downloading "SPEED IS GREAT!" about 350kbps. Anyways i used AVG to scan computer it found trojan's. i deleted them and then internet explorer was working perfectly. it took 0.5 seconds for google to load and other sites. But the problem came back the next day. So i decided to scan again with AVG, but this time AVG found nothing and Internet explorer is going very very slow!!!!.

Please help me Spybot team!!!!!

the only thing I can recommend is performing a disk cleanup

start-all programs-accessories-system tools-disk cleanup

Check all of the check boxes - except the final 2 options ('compress old files' and 'catalog files for the content indexer')

I've finished the disk clean up. Not much difference still getting very slow speeds!.

Ive also tried a different browser but still no luck!

I suggest starting again Cyxee as you have one post stating the problem, followed by another containing a HJT log which is missing the header. There does appear to be an infection.
