Go here to download the trial version of AVG Anti-spyware. Install and open AVGAS. Click "Update" then click "Start update". After updating, close AVGAS. Note: Print or copy these instructions to Notepad and asave them. You will be in safe mode and can't access the internet. Restart your computer in safe mode(press F8 upon boot, select "Safe Mode" from menu and press Enter). Open AVGAS and click "Scanner". Click "Complete System Scan". When it finishes scanning, set all items to "Quarantine". Click "Apply All Actions". Click "Save Report" and save it to the desktop. Restart in normal mode. Post back with the AVGAS report and a new HijackThis log.
Ok...will do. However, I do have Anti-Vir installed and running, along as a firewall. Is there something else I should be doing? Brody24
Yes, you need an anti-spyware program. Get AVGAS and also look into getting Spybot Search and Destroy. Spybot is free, but there's no real-time protection.
Niobis: Thanks for info. I did already have Ad-aware, Spybot, and Spyware blaster, but have installed AVG. Here's the Hijack log, followed by the AVG log.

You may uninstall AVGAS if you don't want/need it. Spyware Blaster isn't showing in the HjT log that why I ask you download and use it. Do you use StartupMonitor? Go here to run [bold]ActiveScan[/bold]. When it finishes, click "[bold]See Report[/bold]". If anything other than cookies is found post the log here.
Use CCleaner to clean the cookies. Open CCleaner. Click Options > Advance > uncheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours". Click Cleaner > Run Cleaner. Search for and locate the file: SysTray.Exe Right-click it and select Properties. Is it 'copyright by Microsoft'? If it is then you're clean. If startup is still slow you can take things you don't need off startup. Go to Start > Run > type msconfig and click OK. Then go to the Startup tab. Make sure you know what you are unchecking as most are needed system files. Edit: maybe check for a rootkit. Download F-Secure Blacklight (blbeta.exe) to the desktop from here. Open it and click [bold]Accept Agreement[/bold]. Click "[bold]Scan[/bold]". After the scan is complete, click "[bold]Next[/bold]", then "[bold]Exit[/bold]". It will create a log on the desktop named "[bold]fsbl-xxxxxxx.log[/bold]" (the xxxxxxx will be the date and time of the scan) Post that log in your next reply.

Something is still goofy though. From the time I hit enter on the "enter id/password" screen until I see the FIRST desktop icon is a little over 5 MINUTES. This process used to be pretty quick. Maybe a minute. Tops! Running more than a single program drags the system to it's knees. I used to have tons of things open all at once. When I look at Windows task manager, I see about 85% of my PF usage already taken. Here's my individual stats: Phyical Memory Total 130124 Available 23928 System cache 34200 Kernal Memory (k) Total 32372 Paged 25512 Nonpaged 6860 Totals Handles 6728 Threads 381 Processes 36 Commit Charge (k) Total 257060 Limit 313312 Peak 261920Phyical Memory Total 130124 Available 23928 System cache 34200 Kernal Memory (k) Total 32372 Paged 25512 Nonpaged 6860 Totals Handles 6728 Threads 381 Processes 36 Commit Charge (k) Total 257060 Limit 313312 Peak 261920 In anycase, thanks for you help.
Maybe increase your virtual memory. Right-click My Computer > Properties > Advance tab > Performance settings > Advance tab > under Virtual Memory click Change. Under Paging file size for selected drive click the Customize size box. You can set it as high as you like as long as you're under the "Space available" size. But, don't set it too high or it will take away all your HD space. Personally, with a 40 GB HD, mine is set to: "Initial Size: 800 MB" "Maximum size: 1536 MB" It just depends on the size of your HD and how much space you can spare for extra VM.
Well, things are better. It's now taking 3min to boot instead of 5, and performance is reasonable now. Thanks for your help.
