    I did the Windows XP Cleaning Procedure, attached are my logs. Everything looks good to my untrained eye.

    I was running COMODO Internet Security w/ On Access AV. I think Defense+ was disabled. I do weekly Spybot S&D and Spyware Blaster scans and also BOClean.
    The trouble started when BOClean notified me it should be discontinued because its part of CIS now. I ran the Uninstaller and the DLL errors started, and I couldn't get rid of BOC...it wasnt showing up under add/remove programs or the start menu, but it was still in the system tray with database errors. Reading more here, I decided to reload BOClean and try AVG8.5 (I had run AVG7.5 until Dec 31 2008).
    I'm not sure if its coincidence or not, but I paid my credit card bill online Friday night. On Sunday, my credit card company called me to ask me about a charge attempt they flagged as "likely fraudulent"...they were correct. So now I'm a little paranoid, that this occurred while I'm having some security issues on my computer.

    When I boot up, I get 2 RUNDLL error windows...
    On shutdown, I get an error hpoevm08.exe NOT RESPONDING

    Thanks for any help.

    Did you want to post in the malware forum, because as a normal rule, we do not request or scan logs unless needed? Please post in that forum if so, you have some malware issues.

    I was hoping for a quick response, but this is not quite what I hoped for :-o. Sorry about that, I reposted over in the malware forum.

    Your logs do not show any malware problems. DLL Errors due to your Thinkpad startups that no longer exist are not malware problems. Just stop trying to run those startups. If the below two items are removed from your startup, the errors will go away.
    Also not a malware problem. This is your HP software. It is a System Tray icon indicating when the printer is ready which you may or may not need to load at startup like you are doing. Depends on your preference. Either way it is not a problem for this forum.
