    Hey guys, I have a little problem. I first noticed it when I was downloading a torrent. It was up at 200kb/s, then for no reason, the d/l box to the left of the d/l turns red, and now my d/l is stuck mostly at 30-50, but spikes to 150 for a few seconds (I know torrents, and it should be going much faster).

    Also, I can't even connect to bodog to play poker. I get a box saying I'm experiencing connection issues...which I am. Then, I tried to open Limewire and got a box saying that I can't connect and its probably due to my firewall. I doubt it because I haven't touched the thing.

    One more thing, when I type in any address or try to go to any page online, I'll double click/press enter on something, the browser will act like its loading (for a millisecond) and simple say done on my browser, but I haven't gone anywhere. Or, it'll load a white page.

    My computer is running fine, but the connection is just shot. Heres the log

    Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2


    Thanks for any help.

    EDIT: Also, the connection is running strong according to my network places and now that Im paying more attention to it, my computer isn't running as quickly as it should be.

    Cant edit my post for some reason, but I disabled my firewall for a sec., and nothing changed. I can't even connection to anything. I have to press reload a million times or in this case "submit reply" in order for it to go through.

    Also, delted pnkbstrA.exe and pnkbstrab.exe from system32 and nada. I know its punkbuster for games, but I hear some trojans disguise themselves under this name, plus I uninstalled the game that used it and it was still running.

    I'm losing it because I need to pay bills soon. Ahhh

    EDIT: Excuse me for posting my HiJack log, but I have tried all that stuff in the sticky, and I just don't know whats going on.

    If you did what is in the Read and Run First sticky, you would know to attach the logs. We have no idea what is going on with your system without seeing them.

    Atcutally, your right. I only half completed the sticky...trouble shooting my hijack log. Didnt click on the link that opened the door to my solution!

    Basically, all i needed was SAS to repair that tcp connection as directed. I was good. But i continued and found 21 infections with spybot. No other infections.

    I forgot my 3.4ghz dual core pentium D was this quick. I don't even have time to finish clicking before I get directed lol.

    Anyway thanks alot.

    If you feel you are malware free....then your welcome.

    If you aren't sure, I will be glad to look at the requested logs and advise.
