  1. Sorry for the delay in reply... we were out of town and I didn't get to check this thread very quickly. OtMoveIt Results: File/Folder O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows Explorer] C:\WINDOWS\explore.exe not found. File/Folder O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [dumprep] C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolw.exe not found. Created on 12/28/2007 14:43:13 I also got a message that it could not create a log.
  2. AVG is scanning clean and it appears to be working well. Thank you for your time and assistance!
  3. Both times I ran combofix, I waited until the log came up--which my understanding of the directions was that when the log came up, then combofix was finished. It was only after I had saved the log as a notepad file and copied it to paste that I attempted to run firefox. Should combofix be finished running when the log appears or is there something else I should wait for?

  4. In case it's important... Both times that I ran combofix, it did not appear to reboot but firefox wouldn't open. When I try restarting the computer it gives me a program not responding for "SysFader" and then goes through a continuous loop of shutting down SysFader. Both times I have had to restart the computer by holding down the power button. Firefox works fine when the computer reboots.

  6. Is there something else I should or could be doing?
  7. Hi Sarahw! Thanks for being here to help! I followed the directions to show hidden files and disable TeaTimer. When I went to uploadmalware, I could not locate either of the files you requested. I tried browsing for them, typing the file names (got a message that said file not found) and doing a regular search for files and folders off the start menu. Similarly named files existed: explorer.exe and spoolsv.exe Is there some other way to look for them? Or should I be glad they appear to be gone?

  8. Hello Helpful People! AVG found several files on my husband's computer it identified as trojans. AVG would delete the files but even 15minutes later a new scan would find the same or similar files. When the problem surfaced a few weeks ago he had downloaded some new games from some different game sites. I found a reference to combofix and tired downloading and running that. It seemed to work as AVG ran clean for a couple of weeks. Now it is doing the same thing. I'm hoping you can find something in a log that can help us get rid of whatever is re-inventing those files.

  9. Thank you so much for your help! Things seem to be running well! I already have most of the programs you mentioned at this point, will work on downloading and running the rest.

  11. Thanks for Helping. VundoFix said it found no infected files. I clicked Remove Vundo anyway and it said again that it found no infected files and would close (which it promptly did).

  12. About a year ago, thanks to Norton (which randomly decided to stop running) I got some kind of downloader on my system. It took a few weeks and lots of help from my big brother--who also suggested I run AVG anti-virus instead--but the problem appeared to be cleared up. And after a few weeks I let AVG run a pre-scheduled daily check and stopped manually scanning or paying really close attention. So I just realized that for months AVG has been quietly removing the same tracking cookies from my computer every day. I don't know if this is related to the previous problem or something new. AVG
