    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    You need to tell us what malware problems you are having! Just saying you have "some errors with your computer" is not helpful at all. What errors exactly? Give word for word error messages and describe when they occur. Many error messages may not be malware related at all. If you really suspect you are having malware problems, you need to follow the instructions below because a HijackThis log by itself (especially when not installed properly) is really not that helpful. Case in point, yours shows no malware. It just shows that HJT is not properly installed and renamed and it shows that you are in safe boot mode which is not how HijackThis should be run.

    Please follow our standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, renaming, 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:
    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 for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
      • AVG Antispyware log - ONLY IF NEEDED you were not able to run CounterSpy. - only for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
      • 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!

    Ok sorry for the unspecific question.

    Here's my problem:
    Everytime I go into my extra hard drive D: into the folder where I kept some of my video files using virtualdub I encounter this error about Windows Explorer. Sometimes it closes by itself, even if I click the videos.

    What suppose to be the problem?

    And is it ok to use NOD32 Anti-Virus? OR I really should use the BitDefender/Panda?

    So that I can proceed with the steps.
