hi, nothing really stands out in the log as far as malware goes. you have windows defender and spyware doctor for anti-malware are they up to date and you have scanned recently with them? your antivirus is also up to date? echoreply
hmm yeah. but i think i accidentally downloaded a bad .dll file, and it's something to do with my registry. what do i have to do to "cure" my computer?
you also have ad aware. thats 3 anti-malware apps. one of these should be showing signs of something, even if it couldnt remove it. you can do a online scan for another check. F-secure scan: http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml uses Internet Explorer only click on the "start scanning button" near bottom of page. click to accept/install the ActiveX applet "accept" the License Agreement, click "full system scan" Once the download of files completes,the scan will begin automatically. The scan may take some time to finish. When the scan completes, click the Automatic cleaning (recommended) button. echoreply
