Serious Problems With PC

Scathe666 · Dec 7, 2008

Not quite sure when this happened, noticed it in the last few days.

My computer is running multiple/endless instances of cmd.exe and services.exe. If left long enough performance suffers greatly and programs stop working. Resulting in multiple restarts.

I have had greatly appreciated help from here before.

Hopefully you guys can help me again.

Thanks.

Hello, Scathe666-

Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions , so we can see what's going on with your machine.

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.

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

Notes:

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:

Starting your computer in Safe mode

If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Links are given in the Step 2: Installing Tools and Running Scans section for downloading the definitions for the MBAM & SAS scanners. Then copy them to the problem PC. Yes, you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.

Thanks!
