    Hello!

    Yesterday my computer started to freeze, and it wouldn't let me restart my computer through task manager or Start menu because my computer remained frozen. So I have been shutting off my computer by holding onto the power button an then turning it back on. It would freeze whether I'm just listening to music on iTunes or using the internet.

    I ran Avast, CCleaner, and tried system restore before I knew of this forum, but my computer still froze.

    After I followed all of the steps of READ & RUN ME, my computer froze again about 15 later.

    I ran Avast again and these two infections showed up:
    Win32:RustNT [Rtk]
    Win32:Rootkit-gen [Rtk]

    I pressed delete, but I am not sure if it is completely gone because my computer still freezes when I am on normal mode.

    Thanks for the help!

    The scans removed a lot of the malware. However, your MGLogs are mostly empty. Please re-run it and this time make the agreement to run HJT and let the program run until it tells you to press any key. Then attach the new MGLogs.zip.

    That's good to hear! Although, I'm still having problems with my computer freezing and making a skipping sound when I try to watch a video on Youtube or listen to music on iTunes or winamp. Even when I'm just browsing the internet the browser would freeze, then the whole computer eventually freezes.

    Your ShowNewfiles log is empty....please follow these instructions:
    Then please run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator).

    Then attach the below logs:

    * C:\MGlogs.zip
