    Recently i have noticed that after a period of around 10 mins or so my PC runs ok, my RAM usage is not high but i cannot surf, download, etc, though the icon on the right continues to show that my internet access is present. Also if I were to shut off nmy copy of IE 8, i cannot restart it, nor does firefox or safari open up. I am attching the log file for any body to tell me if there is malware on my system.
    My configuration is vista ultimate SP1, 1 TB hdd 7200 rpm, another 500 GB HDD 7200 rpm, both seagate, 512 MB VRAM, 4 GB system RAM, core2quad processor

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    A HijackThis log is of very little use to us in determining if you have malware problems or not. The below is our required process that helps us determine if you have malware problems or not. However, before you get started on the below, is your copy of Spyware Doctor a paid version? If you said no then uninstall it immediately before continuing. The same goes for Registry Mechanic.

    Also what is the below?
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Rohos] C:\Program Files\Rohos\agent.exe


    Please read ALL of this message including the notes before doing anything.

    Please follow the instructions in the below link:

    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
    • **** If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. ****
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not. MGtools will frequently run even when all other tools will not.

    • After completing the READ & RUN ME and attaching your logs, make sure that you tell us what problems still remain ( if any still do )!
    Helpful Notes:
    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode, you can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools and the manual updates for SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes ( links are given in the READ & RUN ME) onto another PC and then burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
    3. If you cannot seem to login to an infected user account, try using a different user account (if you have one) in either normal or safe boot mode and running only SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes while logged into this other user account. Then reboot and see if you can log into the problem user account. If you can then run SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, ComboFix and MGtools on the infected account as requested in the instructions.
    4. To avoid additional delay in getting a response, it is strongly advised that after completing the READ & RUN ME you also read this sticky:
    Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated our system works the oldest threads FIRST.
