    possible infection
    « on: October 05, 2015, 08:28:09 PM »
    ok so I ran all the usual checks when I thought something was wrong, and can't find anything. So, when my daughter has her facebook profile up playing games, the computer ALWAYS has issues, freezing, screens going part clear where you cannot see anything on part of them...and always you can hear it running hard. In my facebook profile it rarely has issues...same games...same browser...sometimes only moments apart...

    ok and looking in Task Manager to see whats running so hard is always "System"  file name of ntoskrnl and description of NT Kernel & System. This utilizes about 300k+ in memory. It runs ALL THE TIME, so it can't just be updates?

    here are my needed files:

    Hello and welcome to Computer Hope Forum. My name is Dave. I will be helping you out with your particular problem on your computer.

    1. I will be working on your Malware issues. This may or may not solve other issues you have with your machine.
    2. The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
    3. If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
    4. Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans while I am helping you.
    5. It is important that you reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
    6. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
    7. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

    If you can't access the internet with your infected computer you will have to download and transfer any programs to the computer you're using now and transfer them to the infected computer with a CD-RW or a USB storage device. I prefer a CD because a storage device can get infected. If you use a storage device hold the shift key down while inserting the USB storage device for about 10 secs. You will also have to transfer the logs you receive back to the good computer using the same method until we can get the computer back on-line.
    *************************************************************************
    Windows 10 comes with its' own AV called Windows Defender. If you wish to use another AV you should disable WD.
    *********************************************
    Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.

    Warning! Once the scan is complete JRT will shut down your browser with NO warning.

    Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.

    •Temporarily disable your Antivirus and any Antispyware real time protection before performing a scan. Click this link to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.

    •Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click JRT and select Run as Administrator

    •The tool will open and start scanning your system.

    •Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system's specifications.

    •On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.

    •Copy and Paste the JRT.txt log into your next message.

            does the computer act up the same with IE? or are you talking about the file download we just tried?

              everything is much worse in IE, when I try to do anything full screen the thing flashes and blinks out all pixelated.

              In that case I suspect there is something not quite right with your hardware. Someone needs to check this computer to make sure all connections are secure. You should also check the hard drive and the RAM using the tools below.

              Run hard drive diagnostics: tacktech.com
              Make sure, you select tool, which is appropriate for the brand of your hard drive.
              Depending on the program, it'll create bootable floppy, or bootable CD.
              If downloaded file is of .iso type, use ImgBurn: imgburn to burn .iso file to a CD (select "Write image file to disc" option), and make the CD bootable.
              For Toshiba hard drives, see here:

              Note : If you do not know how to set your computer to boot from CD follow the steps here
              **********************************************
              That could be a problem with bad RAM. Please run this check just to eliminate that possibility.
              Test your RAM here.

                  well I guess this is all beyond me? I tried the RAM thing, downloaded it but when I tried to unpack file it was corrupted.

                  I tried to figure out the DFT but it pulls up no devices...its all blank...

                  You could try resetting your browsers back to their defaults.
