when I start up my computer, it seems to run slow...almost like something may be running in the background...also, when I x out the screen, screen seems to melt out from top to bottom...doesn't just immediately vanish...any help is appreciated...thanks...matt
all computers have programs running in the background if you are using windows xp there are lots of them check to see how much RAM you have in your computer the more RAM you have the faster your computer will run
buudman, havent heard from u after we chatted last. ru still getting "low virtual mem" msgs...or did we fix that?
Hey Buddy, Lets see what we can do Please be patient and I'd be grateful if you would note the following: *I will working be on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine. *The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine. *Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine appears to be clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear. *It's often worth reading through these instructions and printing them for ease of reference. *If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to say or ask!! It's better to be sure and safe than sorry. *Finally, please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic. First, I'd like you to run ATF Cleaner. ATF-Cleaner Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune from here. Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program. Under Main choose: Select All Click the Empty Selected button. Now, post a HJT log. Please post a HJT (HijackThis) log, to do so, follow theese simple instructions :-D Download HJT from HERE Please make a new folder to put your HijackThis.exe into. Anywhere on your hard drive is fine other than your Desktop or the Temp folder. We suggest you use something like "C:\Program Files\HijackThis" but feel free to use any name. See here for specific instructions and screen shots to help: http://russelltexas.com/malware/createhjtfolder.htm This is to ensure it makes the necessary backups for recovery if needed. Run the HijackThis.exe file and choose to run a "Full System Scan And Save Logfile"in a matter of seconds you should see a notepad document pop up (the logfile), copy and paste thar log file into a reply here. Cheers.
Hi ZIZI88, We don't know whether or not the user knows what is nessecary or unessacery, so thats why I aksed them to post a HJT log, that way we can see whats going on in there and help them out.
hey guys, I already did the atf cleaner and the hijack this log. got those directions thru a thread I posted in the virus section. Cleaned out the bad stuff. Thought maybe there was something going on in my start up. Thanks for the advice anyway...matt
Yo Burdman! Sup! Post the logs again anyway. 2 or 3 heads are better than one. Or maybe you should ask the mod's or admin's to close you're previous post first, soo you don't break any rules. Rav would know better than i would if thats necessary.at any rate i'll assume your machine is still not op right, and still needs some attention not related to mal-stuff. that sucks ...thought we had ur prob nailed. ps CASH BLAST will never be the same without you! lol!
so you have the same prob. but aparrently it's not due to mal-stuff....is that right? hmmmm? i personally don't think that would be considered a repost...but i guess i could be wrong. i doubt the mods would make a fuss. at the same time i dont think reposting hijack logs is necessary, cause anyone can simply check them out in ur previous post http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/388902 ... i wish i could help u out more , but i'm no expert at op. sys. probs,( if thats even ur prob). CRY for help buddy! i think you'll get it.
