    This message should have "hijackthis.log",
    "ActiveScan.txt", & "bdscan.txt" attached.
    And I followed the instructions (correctly,
    I hope) in your "read & run me first"
    document.

    My computer hangs up. Sometimes a few minutes
    after booting up, sometimes a couple of hours
    after booting up, sometimes not at all within
    a session. Sometimes it will hang (no cursor
    control, no keyboard, etc[disk activity
    indicator is on!]) and if I wait a few minutes,
    control will return.

    Part 2 will have "runkeys.txt" & "newfiles.txt"
    attached

    The problems you are describing do not sound like malware. They sound more like hardware issues. Possibly overheating or memory related (or something else). You should post a request for help in the Hardware Forum.

    You only have a few minor things we can fix here but they will not resolve the problems you have described.

    Uninstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 2
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 4
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 8
    Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_03

    Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixWLK.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

    Now that you mention heat/hardware - - - we are having our kitchen remodled and there is an excessive amount of dust everywhere. I'll take the computer apart and clean itand try to put it somewhere that isn't so dusty till they finish.

    I will follow you advice on removing the old software as the regedit.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to address my issues. I appreciate it.
