Hi,

I have an Acer Desktop with WIndows XP Home edition Version 2002. The CPU is 3.06Ghz with a celeron processor. The ram is 448 MB.

Here is my Hijack this log. Can you give me any idea why it runs slow? When I turn the computer and it starts to load my desktop it takes forever. When I think it's finally ready I click on internet explorer and that takes a long time.

Please review and let me know what I can do.

What model name and model number is that ACER desktop so I can find out how much RAM it supports and what type module it uses?

If it's showing 448 MB of RAM, it probably has 512 MB and has 64 MB of it reserved for use by an on-board graphics controller(512 - 64 = 448). It could use another 512 MB.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

There are too many programs loading during startup and running in the background that don't need to be doing so. That in itself is causing a performance loss and taking XP a longer time to load. I'll assist you in trimming down the startup load.

------------------------------------------------------------------

It's going to take me awhile to read your HijackThis log in its entirety and give you further instructions.

In the meantime, I want you to click the green icon at each site to download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.40 and SUPERAntiSpyware 4.28.0.1010.

Just download and save those 2 files for now. Don't install them yet or do anything with them yet.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you using an iPod in conjunction with iTunes and QuickTime?

Who is your Internet Service Provider?

NJM:

I'm going to have you trim down the startup load of its more obvious unnecessary startup entries for now. We'll trim it down even more later.

Follow my instructions careful and take your time. It's not difficult to do at all.

The names in your computer may or may not have the .exe in the name, so be aware of that and don't let it confuse you.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Click Start - Run, type in MSCONFIG and then click OK - "Startup"(tab).

Remove the checkmark in

RemoteControl C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDVD\PDVDServ.exe

IMJPMIG8.1 C:\WINDOWS\IME\imjp8_1\IMJPMIG.EXE

MSPY2002 C:\WINDOWS\system32\IME\PINTLGNT\ImScInst.exe

Adobe Reader Speed Launch C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\reader_sl.exe

Microsoft Office C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA9.EXE

After you're done, click Apply - OK/Close - Exit Without Restart.

Click Start - Run, type in SERVICES.MSC and then click OK.

Expand the services window so you can see the list more clearly.

Highlight and double-click on

InstallDriver Table Manager (IDriverT)

Intuit Update Service (IntuitUpdateService)

Java Quick Starter (JavaQuickStarterService)

Kodak Camera Connection Software (KodakCCS)

LiveShare P2P Server 9 (RoxLiveShare9)

Viewpoint Manager Service

Yahoo! Updater (YahooAUService)


Change the setting from "Automatic"(if currently set there) to "Manual", then click Apply - OK.

You have to change the setting to one entry at a time.

After you get done, close the services window, then restart your computer.

When the small SCU window appears(see screenshot), put a checkmark in that window, then click OK.

Run a new HijackThis scan, then post that new log here.

Here's my hijack log again. I did everything that was suggested. The other problem is when I click on Internet explorer the window opens but connection slow.

use an ipod from time to time. Internet service provider is optimum online
There are a few iPod-related entries that we can disable from loading and running automatically, but since you use an iPod, we'll leave those entries alone and concentrate on some of the other startup entries.

Do you have a website address for optimum online? I've never heard of it. According to your log, it appears that you're using Verizon for an internet service provider. Are you using 56K dial-up or high-speed?

------------------------------------------------------------------

it's an acer SA80
Is it an Acer Aspire SA80 desktop? If it is, it supports up to 2048 MB of RAM. 512 MB modules can be purchased at this site for $19.98 plus shipping. I've used this site for years, and it's reliable. I highly suggest that you add another 512 MB of RAM to that desktop.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Have you downloaded the 2 anti-spyware programs that I previously linked you to in post #2? If you have, go ahead and install them. After they're installed, run their update function to make sure the latest definition files are installed. Advise me when you've done that so I can give you instructions for running a scan with them and fixing whatever problems they find.

Nancy:

SUPERAntiSpyware just upgraded a few days ago to version 4.28.0.1010. I noticed in your first HijackThis log that you had it installed. I just wanted to make sure that you have the current version. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware hasn't upgraded in awhile and is still version 1.40.

Close all open browser windows and any other open windows, then install them both. Restart your computer afterwards.

Start SUPERAntiSpyware and run its update function to get the latest definition files installed. After that's done, run a "quick scan" with it. When the scan completes, select and allow everything that was found to be fixed. Restart your computer if prompted to.

Start Malwarebytes and run its update function to get the latest definition files installed. After that's done, run a "quick scan" with it. When the scan completes, select and allow everything it found to be fixed. Restart your computer if prompted to.

Go into the log section of both programs, obtain the log, then post them here.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for posting the "Optimum Online" web site.

I'm trying to determine why you have all those "Verizon"-related in your log. If "Verizon" has no involvement in the ISP function of your computer, then we need to get rid of it. Having a bunch of unneeded and unused software in your computer just adds to the clutter and problems.

If I were to put in more Ram is that easy to do or do I have to take it somewhere? I'm not real comfortable opening computer unless there are great directions somewhere.

Nancy:

You pulled a "boo boo".

You run a quick scan with Malwarebytes and it found 38 problems, however you didn't select and allow them all to be fixed. Your log shows that you took no action. You would've been prompted to restart your computer to allow the fixing process to complete.

Run another quick scan, and do it right this time. And post the new scan log.

You say SUPERAntiSpyware came up clean? Not even a few adware tracking cookies?

-------------------------------------------------------

If you're not comfortable with opening that computer case and adding more RAM, or have a family member or friend who can do it for you, a computer shop can install it for you. It'll cost you noticably more, but at least it'll get done right.

You've got over-kill with toolbars and a lot of programs running in the background, so I don't know what's causing a problem with SUPERAntiSpyware. I wouldn't be surprised if Symantec Norton is causing a conflict with it.

Uninstall SUPERAntiSpyware and allow it to delete all current logs and quarantined items, restart your computer afterwards, then go into the C:\Program Files folder and delete its leftover folder - if it's still there.

After you do that, start Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, get it up-to-date with the latest definition files, run a new "quick scan" with it, then select and fix EVERYTHING it finds. Post that new scan log here afterwards.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Look in the Add Or Remove Programs list and advise me if there's any Verizon-related programs listed there.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I have removed in control panel verizon related programs. I uninstalled super anti spyware and deleted the folder. What happened when I tried to run I got a message saying there was an error that had to be reported. It had found 19 adware "issues". When I reported the error it got in a loop then locked up the computer.

I ran malware and it said that nothing was found I saved it but can't find. Forgot to save it to my desktop.
 
#22 ·
I bet I know what you did. When you installed SUPERAntiSpyware, you left the checkmark in the option to send a diagnostic report.

When installing or updating programs, I always uncheck and opt out from unnecessary add-ons, such as sending a report or adding a toolbar or changing the home page.

The next time that you're prompted to send a report, don't send it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

If you've restarted your computer since you uninstalled SUPERAntiSpyware and the Verizon-related entries, post a new HijackThis log here.

I am looking at an HP pavilion p6110F desktop. Can you tell me or refer me to who can help me if this desktop is better then the Acer I currently have?
I've been using HP Pavilion and/or Compaq Presario desktops since 1997(HP and Compaq merged into one company several years ago.). I also use only HP printers and all-in-ones.

Like most any other factory brand computer that you buy, they come with several trial/demo programs and other programs that I don't need or use, so uninstalling them is usually one of the first things that I do after the computer is up and running.

Here is the support and software updates site for the HP Pavilion p6110f desktop.

Here is the product specs site for it. With an Intel Pentium dual core 2.6 GHz processor and 6144 MB(6 GB) of RAM, you'll have a real speed demon to play with.

There's a bit of a learning curve from XP to Vista, but it's not difficult. Personally, I have my Vista desktop set up in Vista classic/standard mode instead of its default aero glass mode. That makes it look more like XP.

------------------------------------------------------------

I've worked on a few Acer desktops and laptops, but I've never owned one, so I can't comment good or bad about them. I believe that company ranks 3rd in company sales.

I'm through yakking about HP and Acer computers, so let me focus on your last HijackThis log and have you clean out some entries in it.

Start HijackThis, run a scan with it, put a checkmark in

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Verizon Custom Uninstall Tracking] C:\DOCUME~1\Nancy\LOCALS~1\Temp\InstallHelper.exe /uninstalltrackingvendor=Verizon

O8 - Extra context menu item: &Search - http://edits.mywebsearch.com/toolbar...p=ZUxdm265YYUS

then click "Fix Checked".

Close HijackThis.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.40 has updated to version 1.41.

Start it and then run its update function. It should automatically update to version 1.41 from there.
