[etaf]

you have an obsolete version of HJT
go here and download version 1.98.2

http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/
http://209.133.47.200/~merijn/downloads.html
http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

also do NOT put on desktop - as it makes lots of backups create a directory say my documents/hjt

 

[chinoxl]

ok, I've got the version of hijackthis that you said to get and here is the log from it.

Download, unzip and run the hoster.exe from this site to reset your Hijacked Hosts file to a default:

http://members.aol.com/toadbee/hoster.zip

Then post another HijackThis Scanlog to confirm it's done the job.

You've definitely been the victim of a worm or trojan, but there is no other evidence in the log. Is McAfee a recent, updated version, and has it found anything lately?

I'd also try running an online scan from one of these sites if you can:

HouseCall
Panda

 

[chinoxl]

I downloaded the hoster application but how do I work it? what do I do in it?

 

[chinoxl]

ok, I think I've done what I needed to do, here's the new log:

[HeddaLora]

A bum power supply can also cause that.

 

[Rollin' Rog]

The Scanlog is normalized, so I'd say if it is a continuing problem, you need to consider hardware issues.

See if you can get a STOP message:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;320299

Also check the Administrative tools Event Viewer log under system events to see if there are any red errors corresponding to the times when these restarts have occured.

 

[chinoxl]

I had a look in the event viewer and there are 2050 events - all errors. It says the source is DCOM whatever that is but none are recent.
