Norton compromised

[andyandkez]

Hi I anyone could post any advise i would be most grateful. I had Norton installed but my PC started not loading the updates and Norton wouldnt complete a scan fully. I checked within control panel for a health check and it warned that no virus was present. This occured on my desktop just a day after the laptop on network displayed similar symptoms. Wondered if anyone may be good enough to advise. I have put a log from hijackthis below

Hi

The log looks ok. Did you uninstall Norton? I can only see Trend Micro Internet Security there.

[andyandkez]

Hi

thanks for your reply

Yes i did uniinstall Norton and replace with a trial Trend Micro for 30 days. I planned to reinstall within 30 days if so other issues occur. Would you say this is probably the best thing to do?

Hi

I recommend replacing Trend Micro trial with free antivirus and firewall.

Good free antivirus programs are:
Antivir (http://free-av.com/en/download/1/download_avira_antivir_personal__free_antivirus.html)
Avast! (http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html)


For firewall I recommend either Online Armor Free (http://www.tallemu.com/free-firewall-protection-software.html) or Comodo Firewall Pro (http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/download_firewall.html#fw3.0) (If you choose Comodo: Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and install firewall ONLY!).

[andyandkez]

Thanks i appreciate your advise

Can i assume that my PC appears to be clean/safe?

[Blade81]

Hi

Yes, according to the logs it should be clean :)
