i have been getting a yellow triangle appearing in my toolbar the last few months. it stays for a couple of minutes then disappears. while it is there the other toolbar icons do not display their names when i hover over them.
i have not left-clicked the triangle at all.
the only malware detected by AVG recently was a false positive trojan.
i enclose a picture of the toolbar complete with yellow triangle.

what will happen if i leave it ?
also is it safe to use the Combifix program as i have read several reports that it may contain rootkits ?

here is a hijackthis log from today:

your definitions for malwarebytes are fairly old. Please update and run another quick scan. I don't see anything in your log.

how is everything running?

[captainclean]

hi sjpritch25

the yellow triangle has not reappeared for a day or so. i am taking precautions against keyloggers when paying for stuff online.... maybe i should just carry on as usual but be vigilant.
Thanks again for your help. If any new symptoms develop i will get in touch.

PS i love the Halloween banner !!

[sjpritch25]

well use a computer for a few more days and give me an update.

[captainclean]

thanks for that sjpritch25

the YT reappeared briefly yesterday. I upgraded AVG to the latest version... it found several revsci tracking cookies.

[sjpritch25]

how is everything now?

[captainclean]

hi sjpritch25

the computer is a bit slow. it froze completely half an hour ago when i was loading Chrome...even the Task Manager wouldn't work.

the yellow triangle appears most days after about 20 minutes online.

[sjpritch25]

Navigate to Add/Remove programs and remove the following
xp-AntiSpy 3.97-3

Let me know if you still receive that yellow triangle. Thanks

[captainclean]

hi sjpritch25... i have done as you suggested. the YT came on before i started.
i will see if that is the end of it.

is xp antispy a bad product ? i know that "xp antispyware" is malware ... is it the same thing as xp antispy ?

thanks so much for your help
