Hey guys,

I got such great help this week for an older machine that I hope someone can help me with my main one. No viruses on my KAV but it is very slow. Here is my HJT report. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

Are you saying you ran the Kaspersky Online Scan it was clean?

You are running two antivirus programs at the same time and this is not a good thing. They conflict with each other and you will be less safe than if you ran one good program and maintained it properly. Uninstall one, update the one you keep and run a complete system scan, post for me any item that can't be removed, the complete name and pathway.

Let's clean the junk and see what happens.

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune

Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Run ATF Cleaner
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Click Select All found at the bottom of the list.
Click the Empty Selected button.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.

Post a new HJT log and some feedback.

Thanks
 
Computer is faster...I can't delete the Live Update folder from Symantec. There is one "exe" and four "dll's". It says access denied. I did the online KAV and have the report. What I noticed is that there were some password protected files. Also here is the fresh HJT.

Hi Derrick, thanks for returning your information and the feedback. Kaspersky is obviously clean.
I can't delete the Live Update folder from Symantec
Click to expand...
You should always use the program uninstaller in Add Remove to do this. Why don't you try the Symantec removal tool and see if that removes the stuff:
http://basconotw.mvps.org/SymRem.htm

I can still see at least two services running and the program running in processes. The HJT log looks good besides that.

Thanks

Hey,

I removed Norton with the tool. I have a question...there are some things in my HJT that I don't need.
Line RO (Forex news)
Line 04 Symantec Driver
Can I delete these? And can I have that link for the Startup Cleaner again?

Here is a fresh report.

thanks

My first suggestion would be to consider updating to Internet Explorer 7 if just for the additonal security it gives you.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/default.mspx

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.forexnews.com
O4 - HKUS\S-1-5-18\..\Run: [Symantec Network Driver Update Warning] C:\PROGRA~1\Symantec\LIVEUP~1\SNDWarn.EXE (User 'SYSTEM')
O4 - HKUS\.DEFAULT\..\Run: [Symantec Network Driver Update Warning] C:\PROGRA~1\Symantec\LIVEUP~1\SNDWarn.EXE (User 'Default user')

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"
And can I have that link for the Startup Cleaner again?
Click to expand...
Refresh my memory, I am doing many of these repairs.

Thanks...Phil
 
Much faster...I can't thank you enough. I am going to go with FireFox as opposed to Explorer. The program I was looking for was Startup CPL. Here is a fresh report for one final look. Thanks again...I am grateful you guys are here to help us.
