    Default Problems with my Internet Connections

    Hello, i'm johnfarson and i'm new here to the forum. Over the past 2 weeks i've had a problem where my browser begins to work sporadically. I'll have complete access and no problems with any pages for about an hour and then I will suddenly lose the ability to see pictures on pages, or I will lose the ability to acccess pages without constant refreshes. At the same time, I hear multiple clicking noises, like a popup blocker is blocking things, and I will then lose the ability to access certain images on a page and the page itself. Whatever this problem might be, it has caused problems with my browsing and internet experience. I dont know what to do as I have lost the ability to access the net for more than an hour and a half at a time. Thanks again for your and please find my log at the bottom of this message. Thank you.

    Default Problems with my Internet Connections

    Hello,
    johnfarson here, new to the forum. I have a problem where I'm losing the ability to view both Explorer and Firefox after about an hour. After an hour the only way I can view either of these browsers is through constant refreshes. For Explorer, I lose the ability to view pictures and certain page details after about 45 minutes and this is accompanied with clicking noises that sound like a pop up blocker. As for Mozilla, in the same amount of time I lose the ability to access any website without great difficulty. I really don't know what happened but i can only suspect malware, or some really devious spyware. Please find my Hijackthis log file enclosed in the bottom.

    Default I posted before but made mistakes in the original, here's the correct post

    Hello, johnfarson here with a problem. I've had a problem with my Internet explorer for the past 2 weeks and it has gotten to the point where i almost dread going on to the Net. My connection stays stable for about an hour and then it all of a sudden develops problems accessing websites and displaying pictures on sites. These problems are accompanied by clicking
    noises that sound like a popup blocker. In the bottom left I get script error messages, and my Explorer puts up error messages that the search page could not be opened. Before this Search error message appears, I often have a problem where the computer will attempt multiple searches for the same website going from .net to .org, to .com, and then Error.
    I really have no idea what happened here but I can assume that this is a pretty bad case of spyware. Please assist me in this matter.
    Thanks

    Hello

    Im not seeing any of the recent spyware/gots or trojans, however it would be good to see an online scan report as mentioned here (if possible)
    http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288

    I lose the ability to view pictures and certain page details after about 45 minutes and this is accompanied with clicking noises that sound like a pop up blocker
    Noise from the monitor , inside the PC or from its speaker ?

    Lonny, the noise is coming from the computer itself. I get a multiple clicking noise at times as a page is downloading, and then boom, I'm missing pictures on the page and other materials. In the place of the pictures are red "x's". On a new topic, I recently discovered some high security risk items in an AVG spyware scan, they conisted of a google toolbar downloader in a few different files. i deleted these.
    Here are the results of My Panda Scan:
    Spyware:Cookie/adultfriendfinder Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Chris Graczyk\Cookies\chris graczyk@adultfriendfinder[2].txt
    Spyware:Cookie/Go Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\ChrisGraczyk\Cookies\chris graczyk@go2].txt
    Spyware:Cookie/Maxserving Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Chris Graczyk\Cookies\chris graczyk@maxserving[2].txt
    Potentially unwanted tool:Application/Processor Not disinfected C:\WINDOWS\system32\Process.exe

    I'll wait for any advice you have to give me. If you want a HackThis log I'll put it in the next post.
    Thank you
    Chris M Graczyk

    I believe its hardware related, it would probaly be best to take the pc to a local pc shop and get it checked.

    Lonny,
    In your experience, have you encountered any hardware problems that would cause a PC to lose Internet stability every two hours? If you have, please give me a few examples so I can give some advice to the guys in the shop. This to me seems like spyware still as I had a problem where something tried to install itself and I closed the window before it could finish. Instead of the window closing, the window was just sucked into the bottom right of my desktop. I'm going to post a hijackthis log and I would like you to take a look to see if there is anything out of ordinary.

    The odd noise and the browser problems sounds to me like a hardware problem, perhaps video card related.

    I'm pretty sure this isnt a hardware problem. I've tested my ATI videocard and everything is working. Also, right now, my entire computer is running slow from startup to desktop functions. I can no longer access My Computer or My Documents without a lag of a few seconds. I really think there is something infested in my computer and I need some advice on a program or programs to get it out. Any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Sorry,
    Forgot to mention also that i have an HP laptop, and that the noises are then coming out of the computer's speakers, not the monitor. When the volume is not on, I cannot hear any noises. So the noises I'm hearing from the browser are probably the result of an infection. I'm only telling you this because you mentioned a monitor in a past post and I do not have one. Dunno if this helps at all.
