• Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.

http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gif Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.

http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gifAfter doing ALL of the above and you still have a problem, make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below thread to properly use HijackThis and attach the log:

thanx for the reply, will try what you said sometime today and will let you know how it went.

Once completed attach the two logs from the online scans with a current HJT log and we will begin the initial fix.

Good Luck!

 

I was able to locate the BSZIP.DLL file and moved it to the recycle bin, if I delete it will it take care of my problem?

 

It may help but it will not fix all of your problems.

I need the logs from the online scans with a fresh HJT log.

 

sorry but I do not know how to do that, maybe if you explain it then I can list them, right now I am scanning with housecalls to see if there are any viruses or spyware, but it seems that it has stopped scanning, so I am not sure what is going on. will let it go for a little bit longer then will probably have to restart it tomorrow.

Read my post and you will know how to do that. Go back and read Post #2 and follow the links, they explain everything you need to know to run the scans and attach the logs.

 

thank you, will read on how to do it as soon as I have the time to sit and work with it, will let you know when I have it done. Thank you

cheryl

 

Okay! I will check back shortly. Good Luck!

 

another question

I know I still need to work on the BSZIP.DLL problem but I have another question, when checking my e-mail I came across an e-mail from zonealarm thanking me for downloading there product, well on this computer I am on now I dont have zonealarm so I did a search to see if anything had been installed without me know it, when I put in zonelabs and did a search the only thing found was DRVMAIN.INF what exactly is this? and do I need it? will try and work on the BSZIP this weekend if I have the time.

thankyou

I'm not sure what that is, if you do not have ZA installed you don't need that file.

 

thank you for the reply.

about that BSZIP file, I did another scan and it is nowhere to be found so when I deleted it it must have taken care of it. If I have anymore problems I will let you know. thanks for all your help.

You still have not attached any logs. I can't help you without these logs. Just removing that one file does not fix all of your problems.
