Been major geeking for years. I'm looking for a little help.

ya i have been on the Tribes server many times over the years. Now i am on the support side of majorgeeks. Thats too bad, because my malware is making me look like a n00b. I ask that one of the forum support admins please teach me the art of l33t I.T. skillz.

please note that i have only read the stickies, and prepared by getting tools and checking add/remove progs.

truthfully i am a little confused about when exactly to turn off/on the 'system restore'. And i am so afraid to make a mistake that may render my system inoperable.

I can/will answer any system questions once my situation is addressed. It is obvious that this is a "help" forum.

one who demands somone's 'help' = a smacktard.

thanks

 

well thanks for the speedy response.. I ran the tools in safe mode. But half way thru the first online scan, IE ill opp'd and my computer was not able to see the internet. Is that a problem?? or do i try again?

 

Man i feel like i have let you down. I tried both online scans. The Bit scan listed multipul java.exploit.bytver.C detections. Then some how my internet was dissrupted. The Panda Scans listed only 5 pieces of spyware. But it too lost its connection once it was finished. Preventing me from getting a log or deleting them. So all i have now is a HJT log. it is attached to this post. q=(

 

the only activescan results was one txt file.

it read..

and there were a few folders and a .sig file.




as for malware issues. I think that my computer is infested with junk. It loads up with 36 tasks running. The taskmanger is filled with scvhost and other suspicious processes. My windows folder is petitioning for its own zipcode. I built it 3 months ago and i didnt hold back. I loaded a slipstreamed xp in less than 16min. q=)

Now i actually watch the windows status bar. Something i thought was gone from my gaming life for good.

 

sorry...I didnt bail on the post. First of the month is nothing but inventory and chaos. Food service industry is very demanding.

I read the steps to remove my old Java so i can replace it with Sun's version. Should i try it manually, or use the program that is suggested?

Also, as i mentioned before. The Bitwhatever virus can kept failing, but it was detecting a Java virus on my machine. I have AVG, but it is only good for the virus detection alert. Any suggestions on another antivirus. (the free kind) I really think there is something on my computer.


And i have noticed some strange activity..

When windows loads up:

1. AVG Email scanner will not work correctly each time.


2. Zonealarm loads up with the 'stop all internet activity' option selected... everytime.


3. WebColt.exe keeps loading during browsing.
