Hi and Welcome to majorgeeks

Please follow these standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, running, and posting HijackThis logs as attachments.

- Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support

Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.

After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis and attach a log:

Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis


When you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too (these scans are covered in steps 6 & 7 of the READ & RUN ME sticky)

• Bitdefender
• Panda Scan
• HijackThis

.

 

Windows Defender may not run on W2K if you havnt installed SP4, but besides that and going by your Event Log report, seems as if you have messenger service running which some spyware uses to try and infect your PC, just double check that the messenger service is disabled, to do this a few routes are available,

1. Download and run Shoot the Messenger a nice small app from Steve gibson.

2. The manual way....
Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services > scroll down to Messenger and highlight > Right Click and choose Properties > click Stop > then under the Startup Type dropdown menu pick Disable > OK



Messenger service is not lined to MSN messenger but is a network alert tool that has sadly been exploited by spyware.


But also do attach the logs from the guide, so they can be checked over, procedure to attach files is here http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=86880
