    Before I start, I got MGTOOLS from somewhere else and have three logs for that. Also, a seperate hijackthis.log.

    I have a HP 716n that had a few viruses. I ran the "Read and Run Me First" thread. To the "T" except for the MGTOOLS logs which came seperate.

    It looks fine to me, from the logs. Runs wayyyy better but I thought I would get a second opinion. One log was 380 kb so I saved all three to a zip file, sorry.

    Thank you.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    This is not exceptable! You must get tools from Major Geeks! You do not have the correct versions and are more than a year out of date. Where did you download these from??? I need to know because they should not be hosting them especially since they are not the correct versions. And there is much more to the READ & RUN ME then MGtools.

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
    NOTE: You must stop using MSconfig as noted in the READ & RUN ME step 1.

    There are 4 logs to attach which are listed at the end of the procedure if you are still having problems.
