Hi,
My laptop has been sluggish and has gradually worsened now freezing on bootup, there are 5 svchost.exe running in Task Manager,one at 100%. I can disable this process then proceed. I ran spybot and it found MainPean.
I am worried it may be more sinister... below is my Hijack log,

Regards, joe

Hello Joe, welcome to Safer Networking, if you still need help and are not receiving it elsewhere, it appears you have missed some important instructions our administrator has posted at the top of the forum, especially this: "BEFORE you POST" Mandatory Steps Before Requesting Assistance

All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please read and follow all instructions and post all required logs or reports, anything less will slow your process.

svchost.exe is a valid part of Windows, unfortunately the bad guys use any name they want also.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=svchost.exe&btnG=Google+Search

HJT can only show so much, that is the reason for the online scan we ask for. I see the item you mentioned:
Full Name: StarDialer 1.0Websearch
http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=414
Read about it, a dialer and a nasty one. Let's remove it and clean a little and see how you are running.
I would also like to run a good scan to see if anything is hidden, takes around an hour.

1) Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/25/2/
Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

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

(the first two are not malware, but are resource waster related to the Alexa toolbar. If you don't use Alexa, get rid of them)

StarDialer

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

3) Follow the directions in this link to download, install, update and run AVG Anti-Spyware, make sure you delete or at least quarantine anything it finds and save the scan report to post.
http://forums.security-central.us/showthread.php?t=3165

4) 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.

Restart the computer and post the scan results from AVG Anti-Spyware and a new HJT log. Let me know how the computer is running now.

Thanks
 
Hi and thanks for the speedy reply.

I followed you steps carefully. I also turned off windows automatic updates.
I thought we were fixed then it froze again cup at 100. dadtray.exe and explorer.exe taking 52 and 48% respectivly. The fan is running hard now too.

Below are the scan results and log. I aso included a scan from Kasperskys..

Thanks again

Joe

Joe...this could easily be a hardware issue also?

When was the last time you cleaned the dust out of the cabinet?

Unlikely that is a trojan, but you can scan the file free here:

AVG Anti-Spyware - Scan Report ??? NO ACTION TAKEN?
make sure you delete or at least quarantine anything it finds

Those all look like cookies anyway, you do know how to clean your cookies?
Here's some information to help you control them:

Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 Scan saved at 14:21:58, on 11/05/2007You HJT log looks fine, AVG Anti-Spyware is using some resources, if you don't own the program I will suggest turning it off (you can keep the scanner) to save those resources.

Have a look at this information:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=clean+inside+the+computer&btnG=Google+Search

I also suggest a diagnostic here: http://www.pcpitstop.com/
Results: http://pcpitstop.invisionzone.com/index.php?showforum=6
TechExpress - Step by Step Instructions

Post a link to that diagnostic if you would.

Keep me posted

Thanks
