    Hey guys this is the first time ive tried to fix a problem myself its proving annoying to say the least, any help would be appreciated.

    I opened a torrent recently and ended up with various Trojans/Virus's which i managed to remove initially with ad-aware se and AVG.

    However i now have a problem with Internet Explorer. At the start every time i opened the program DEP closed it, so i tried to uninstall it, delete etc and finally when this failed i followed the read & run file on malware and seemed good upto the point where i needed to open the online scanners with IE, obviously this didnt happen so i tried to install the latest update of IE but to no avail.

    This is as far as ive got and i cant seem to find a thread specific to my problem ive added the log files runkeys and newfiles.

    Many thanks.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    It is unlikely that your DEP issues are related to malware. However if you want us to check your PC for malware, you must attach the below other logs from the READ ME
    • CounterSpy
    • HijackThis
    At this point I would expect them to be fairly clean and that I will be sending you to the Software Forum to resolve your problem.

    yeah basically i cant open explorer because of dep which is a recent problem and now my latest headache is that after attempting read & run, neither limewire nor azureus will run when i click open etc i get the hour glass indicator for a second and then nothing i tried uninstalling/reinstalling these programs but no change.... i dont have log for hijack etc unfortunately is this a problem?

    thanks for your response again any help would be excellent

    You're welcome.

    Yes and no! Yes in the fact that without the CounterSpy and HijackThis logs there is nothing else for me to tell you except go to the Software Forum to work on your DEP issue. No in the fact that I do not really expect that they would show me any malware problems.
