It just shows my ignorance of computer terminology!! Think I meant downloading, not installing!!
I'll see whether I can fathom out the business of posting a log file.
Dunno if AVG is self-protecting. I used Norton for donkey's years - when sub was due couple of years ago Duncan persuaded me to change to AVG that he uses and swears by.

what it is reporting, it is a very good tool. As Cherub says, post a copy of
the logfile if you run it and we'll see what we can find (there is also a group
you can post the logfile too that will analyze it for you -- it is in the instructions
on the web page).

Is this the "Hijack This" log that was suggested I post? I ran kaspersky too, which was suggested by Brenda and that showed some questionable items. Still needing advice, although computer is still running great. But if there is something untoward in there reckon I really need to get it fixed, yes?

Thanks

Good morning Brenda,
sorry, and yes there are nasties on your PC.
And because your antivirus software did not warn you enough, you could well have a seriously compromised system. You can either try and fix these nasties one by one or you make a clean break.

Lavina,
I took your log and ran it through the HijackThis site.
This is a picture of what I got: http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/8779 ... loguf5.png

Everything marked with a red X is problematic. Everything marked with ? should have an answer, and if you don't know it, then it's bad.

The site points out that you are not running a firewall. Why not Lavina? Not even the one provided by Windows ? If this is so, then this not good.

You said you are running AVG anti-virus, but your computer still runs the service of your old Norton Updater (Symantec). You should do a cleanup
of your computer of this. Such services take up your resources, and obviously they are not needed.

You have installed quite a few tool bars in your Internet Explorer. The majority of them are all bad, and in future you should refrain from installing
such things. Everything marked BHO is questionable, with the exception of Acrobat. I don't know if you were really interested in Google's tool-bar,
but some softwares do install it. You can always say no, if you pay attention.

If you do want to fix your computer, then do run Spybot Search & Destroy which was recommended to you before.

If you have Kaspersky, then by all means do as it says, because this is probably the best Anti-Virus there is.

Try using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer. Much safer, much nicer !

When you are done running and cleaning, please post your HijackThis log again here in this forum.

GOOD LUCK .

Cherub

Thank you so much and for sending the Hijack report. I've had a look and I do have some serious problems - must get fixed.

I AM running a Firewall, the Windows one, and it, auto updates and virus protection are all ON.
I need to do some more housekeeping, and get shot of norton, toolbars (though don't quite know where they came from. I use Google for my web searching) and whatever....... Anyway I know I have a fair amount to attend to. Scares the life out of me, but I'll follow what you suggest. I'll hopefully report back later with a new log.

Thank you again.

I think most of that is OK, it is interesting to note they had a problem with
"programme" vs "program" eh ? :D For some reason, also, there seemed
to be an issue with things down a DOS style path instead of the windows
style (funny shortened names with a ~ in them). Hijack this is a very powerful
tool for seeing what sorts of things are running, but as I have commented
earlier, if you are not careful and just blindly check things and say "fix it" you
can find yourself unbootable in the worst case. Usually what I do when I
run it on my system is take any flagged as "suspicious" in some form or
another and do some more snooping with Google etc to see if I can find
any more information on that file. The Wacom one they flagged is in the
same location on my machine so I would not worry about that.

The best thing you can do is run behind a router to help block incomming stuff,
make sure your A/V is up to date, do NOT just blindly install "stuff" (AKA crap)
that various utilities want to install (like helper toolbars etc) unless you really
need them and set your internet security settings so that any active X or script
that wants to run prompts you first (sometimes I get tired of clicking "OK" on
stuff from Digital Juice for example - but then I remember the effort required
to get rid of stuff that installs if you aren't careful :? )

heh -- just add another drive !! (or a bigger one). Currently, I have 1,650 gigs of
hard drive space in my main machine online (yes, that's 1.65 terabytes !! ). Of
course, one of those is a 500 gig in a removable cage (off a secondary IDE controller).

As my sig says .... :D
