    I followed the instructions carefully and went through all the step. I believe I have an issue but not sure. I have run all the scans majot geeks recommends but it doesn't find anything other then cookies. Here are my text files.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    You did not tell us what problems you are having? i.e. why are you running the READ & RUN ME. You do not appear to have any malware based on your logs.

    All I see is that you did not do step 2 of the READ ME and you did not uninstall the below as requested in step 6:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 10
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 9
    Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2

    Thank you for your reply.

    I just have TONS of things running in the background even when I don't have any programs running so I figured some maybe maleware.

    Fixed the other stuff you sugested.

    I will give you a couple things to do but this is not a topic for the Malware Forum. You don't even have an antivirus or firewall installed and when you install them (which you really MUST DO), you will have more running.

    You need to keep track of what you install and allow to run on your PC especially startup type programs. Many startups are not necessary but only you know what you use and don't use. Also I assume this is a laptop and laptops are notorious for loading everything under the sun at startup.

    • Start by uninstalling any software that you don't use
    • stop things from loading at startup that don't need to load at startup. For example, you can have HJT fix the below lines to stop these:
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SunJavaUpdateSched] "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_01\bin\jusched.exe"
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime
    O4 - Global Startup: Adobe Gamma Loader.lnk = C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Calibration\Adobe Gamma Loader.exe
    O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {e2e2dd38-d088-4134-82b7-f2ba38496583} - %windir%\Network Diagnostic\xpnetdiag.exe (file missing)
    O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: @xpsp3res.dll,-20001 - {e2e2dd38-d088-4134-82b7-f2ba38496583} - %windir%\Network Diagnostic\xpnetdiag.exe (file missing)
    O9 - Extra button: Microsoft AntiSpyware helper - {BAB810E4-974C-4B6B-A828-49AF20327B07} - (no file) (HKCU)
    O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Microsoft AntiSpyware helper - {BAB810E4-974C-4B6B-A828-49AF20327B07} - (no file) (HKCU)
