My Desktop is running like a Rhino with bad knees

Hey Guys,
Win 7 Home Premium on an HP P6803 64 bit, C- drive is still like 65% empty. I don't game on it or use high end video editing software, I mainly use my desktop to surf the net, watch AVI files and store family photos. I have a 1 TB that stores most of my pics.
So, it's behaving like a virus, my HDD sounds like a 747 taking off (intermittently), internet freezes often. I cleaned out some stuff with Superantispyware, my Microsoft Security Essentials AV never finds so much as a tracking cookie (useless). I have a large selection of AV, Spyware and Malware proggies to choose from, does anyone know a certain order to run these or which ones I should even use? I have Superanti, MBam, CCleaner, Rkill, Hitman, Emsisoft, Ad aware, TDSS killer. I'd appreciate any feedback.

 

No my friend, I shut everything off but Security Essentials..if you're looking in that direction, I do have a ridiculous 78 processes going as soon as I connect?

 

Hi pop,
First run Zemana for any malware then make me a FRST log to see what I can find that could be the problem...

Please download Zemana AntiMalware and save it to your Desktop.

• Install the program and once the installation is complete it will start automatically.
• Without changing any options, press Scan to begin.
• After the short scan is finished, if threats are detected press Next to remove them.

Note: If restart is required to finish the cleaning process, you should click Reboot. If reboot isn't required, please restart your computer manually.

• Open Zemana AntiMalware again.
• Click on icon and double click the latest report.
• Now click File > Save As and choose your Desktop before pressing Save.
• The only thing left is to attach saved report in your next message.

Scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.

• Right-click on icon and select Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
• Make sure that Addition option is checked.
• Press Scan button and wait.
• The tool will produce two logfiles on your desktop: FRST.txt and Addition.txt.

Please attach both logs to your next reply.

Please attach all reports using button below. Doing this, you make it easier for me to analyze and fix your problem.

NOTE: All tools we use here are completely clean and do not contain any malware. If your antivirus detects them as malicious, please disable your antivirus and then continue.

too many AV tools on it, remove all of them and stick to using 1, I personally wouldnt use MSE (also use mbam once a week for a deep clean if you want) let the AV do the rest of the work,

again as ddp mentions, use ccleaner and make sure the running at startup apps are at a minimum, the more apps loading at windows startup the more resources you'll lose for everyday tasks., making your pc slooooow!

 

Probably more than that!

Pop has had this problem pop up a lot... As you know, ddp, programmers have a tendency to set a program to run with windows by default and you must stop that or your RAM gets used up and slows you to a snails pace.. lol Anytime I install a program, I always check the settings and uncheck start with windows...

 

i have just 2 programs starting with windows.avast and mbam antiexploit.by the way,my knees have been hurting of late as well.lol

 

Hey my friend, I'm sorry for the delay, but I had some recovery time due to my severe spinal damage, back on my feet.
It's still running very poorly, but I have some more "clues" for you if you'd consider helping me further (please (-;/)
It seems to only happen in explorer, and only when I open a second window. It doesn't happen when I'm on AOL, and not when I'm working on my desktop. When I open a second window, my fan kicks up to turbo speed and my mouse can't make anything respond. I get frequent error messages that say "XYZ has stopped responding, do you want to wait" and I normally have to "control/alt/delete" and shut down my PC. I did close unimportant proggies from starting up.
I hope this helps. I've thrown about 10 different antivirus, antispyware, antimalware proggies at it (one at a time then removed them to avoid conflict) and no love. Thanks much

 

You're good...exactly

 

Sorry for the delay, here ya go

Amd anthlon II XII 220 Processor 2.80 ghz

ATI Radeon HD 4200

 

just ran Zamana and had 7 nasties in the first pass and 74! in the deep scan.. BTW, I was born cursed...henceforth a tad slow. So I need more ram for the volume of content I have? Thanks

 

May I send you my scan results?

 

Don't know if I should have sent this to you personally
