    I'm running Windows XP. I completed running through the Read First yesterday and thought the machine was cleaned.

    Today it's running VERY SLOW and FREEZING constantly. A message with "Sysfader" popped up. Now, to reboot is taking 20 minutes. I'll try to open and find files with results from scans but right now when I click to open a file the machine freezes.

    Downloaded GetRunKey.zip and ShowNew.zip and ran them again.

    Search doesn't find activescan.txt. I can try to run it again.

    Here's the latest scan. Does it matter that I had to do Panda scan out of order?

    Last scan (done yesterday), Panda found wupd

    Also found TSPY_FAVADD_JOINER.AV

    Spybot keeps finding a registry entry for BEARSHARE which I've removed MANY times but it keeps showing in Spybot.

    Any help would be much appreciated -- thank you.

    Two new problems:
    1) Once I've clicked the start button, the start menu is displayed (although clicking on anything doesn't launch the program) continuously on top of everything else -- I can't get it to close. So, I have to resize windows and move them out of the way to see anything.
    2) The clock isn't changing. It still says 12:03 AM (should be 1:18 AM by now). Panda Active scan did run and I can access internet.

    Thanks for any help.

    Your logs do not show any real signs of malware. The slowness is probably due to all the stuff you are running. You have too many realtime antispyware blockers. You have Ewido, SpywareGuard, and Windows Defender. Is Ewido the free version? If so uninstall it. Also uninstall SpywareGuard.

    You also need to get your Sun Java updated!

    First install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment

    Then uninstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Development Kit 5.0 Update 5
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5
    Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2_06
    Java 2 SDK, SE v1.4.2_04

    Delete the below folder (a left over from malware):
    c:\program files\common files\InetGet2


    Are things working any better?

    Thank you very much for your help.

    I completed all tasks. I need the whole JDK so I updated that and the JRE -- got rid of all older versions.

    Machine is running much better although I still see windows that flash too briefly on the screen to read.

    I've attached updated files.

    Thank you again.

    Please disregard attachments in last reply -- c:\program files\common files\InetGet2 folder was still present. It should be gone now.

    Thank you.
