Help w. Malware...

My daughters system albeit not a super fast system is running slower then a P3 system in normal mode. In safe mode it runs like a charm. Could I get someone to take a peek at the logs for her system. I would suspect there is some kind of infection in there as the grandkids are on it all the time...

 

Thanks for your time. Here are the other logs.

 

Welcome to MG's!

First, we need to rename HijackThis to "analyzethis.exe". Once complete proceed with next set of instructions.

1. Download this file - combofix.exe
2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Attach this log to your next reply

Note:

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Once you have completed this post, attach fresh logs from the below

bjgarrick,

DId I forget something? I see you replied to about 12 other people. I appreciate your help and don't want to pester but I thought perhaps you maybe overlooked me by accident...

 

No, as you can tell I have been very busy as Chaslang is on vacation and we only have two other helpers. I work on as many as I can, I have a real life that I make time for to so I only come here when time permits.

 

First, please disable any antivirus and/or antispy programs you have installed so they will not block this fix.

Step 1:
Now scan with HijackThis and check the boxes for the following entries:
( Make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX )

Again, make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX.

Step 2:
