cookies and slowness

scorp13 · Jan 14, 2009

All I have to do is open the internet and I have at least 26 cookies that are marked as malicious. I ran the read and run me first. It seemed like things were fixed then it started happening again so I ran it again only this time nothing changed. So heres the mgtools and combofix logs.

Cookies are not malware. If WinPatrol is reporting it, then it is trying to make you think you need the program.

Your slowness problem is this:
Code:
Total Physical Memory    256.00 MB    
Available Physical Memory    67.20 MB
You need a MINIMUM of 512 to run xp.....and 1 gig would be much better if your computer supports it.

Use add/remove programs to uninstall:
J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 10

Reboot and download and install:
Java Runtime

If you are not having any other malware issues, then:

We recommed you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no real time protection, but are effective as backup scanners. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.

If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)

Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required

"%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /u

Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /u, it must be there.

This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.

Delete the C:\combofix folder from combofix (if it exists)

Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.

If running Vista, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.

Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.

You can delete the C:\MGtools folder and the C:\MGtools.exe file. You can also delete the C:\MGlogs.zip

If you are running Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:

Refer to the cleaning steps in the READ ME for your Window version and see the steps to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.

Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.

After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
