    My computer basically will stop or slow to a crawl repeatedly, especially when online, and especially when using Explorer to view files. In Task Manager/Processes, I see explorer.exe is using almost 100% of the CPU's capacity. If I close it, I have to re-boot.

    I am running Windows XP Home SP2 on an HP PC with an Intel Celeron Processor 734 Mhz and 512 memory. I use Grisoft anti virus, and Zone Alarm firewall. I have scanned with Spybot and Adaware.

    Attached is my Hijack logfile. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Bigmike and welcome

    We will need you to follow the below guide and attach all the requested logs or alternatives that are mentioned if certain scans dont work, Hijackthis while good is only a small part of the arsenal against malware and on its own cannot locate and eradicate all malware that maybe infestating your PC.

    Please follow our 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.
    • 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.
    • 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

    Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around.


    • 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:
      • CounterSpy - ONLY IF you were not able to run Windows Defender
      • Bitdefender - from step 6
      • Panda Scan - from step 6
      • runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
      • newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
      • HijackThis
    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!
