Title: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 04, 2009, 12:50:15 PM
Dell XPS400 Dimension                     
   XP-Pro    Version 2002  SP2             
   Pentium D 2.80  GHz                               
         2.79 GHz, 2.00 GB of Ram

Within last 3-4 days my PC has apparently suddenly begin to slow down until now it is almost impossible to work with it especially online.  Downloads which before used to take seconds to minutes now state they will take 1-2 hours.  Pictures seem to be the worst offender re downloads either online or in emails.

One recipent's emails are going to the deleted file rather than the inbox.

Have a variety of protection programs but both they and my anti-virus come up with no unusual infections.  Have defragged and scanned disc the PC again with no results re the problems I am having.

Can anyone suggest what might be wrong or what I might do to correct the problems?

Am using Obit Pro, Reg Scrub, CCleaner,  Spy Hunter, Windows Defender and Windows Malicious Tool Remover all of which were recommended at one time by a PC tech.  My anti-virus is ESET NOD32.  I continually update all programs in attempt to avoid problems such that am having now.

So what am I doing wrong here? ???

Have followed the directions clear down to Hi-Jack this but am stuck here.  I downloaded Hi-Jack and renamed it to JHT but there is no 'install' button; when I double click on HJT file, it merely opens to programs with which to open the download.  What have I missed or done in error?

It sounds like you may have removed the file extension when renaming it.  Try downloading HijackThis again, but this time, don't rename it.  Does it work now?

Following is my Hi-Jack log.  Could not follow your instructions quite to the letter but was able to still get this Hi-Jack log so hope it is OK.  :)

Remove this entry with HijackThis:

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - ~CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497} - (no file)

Simply place a check next to it and click on Fix Checked.

Other than that, not much is showing up in your log.  Why were you unable to do the other steps?  Could you not download the programs?  Did you receive any errors?
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 06, 2009, 10:11:46 AM
No I was able to download everything.  There were just some directions that you gave that I could not find the steps to follow through exactly.  However, continuing on with what I was seeing on my screen I think I arrived at the place where I was supposed to be re your directions.

This might be an example.  When I did the log, there were two screens that opened: the log I sent you and the other would have been the 'fix it' screen where I could put a check mark and click on fix it.  However, there was no place on this screen to save it, no toolbar at all so when I logged off for the night, it of course disappeared.


Not sure whether to go through process again of developing a log to bring this screen back up again in order to delete the 'string' you indicated. Or is there another way to delete same the string?

My PC continues to malfunction and is getting no better.  Does this then mean, if nothing else is found, that I may be having software conflicts?

Some time ago a tech put SpyHunter on my PC - I did not opt for it so do not know anything about it.  It has now 'gone down', will not function when I try to use it.  Wondering if I can safely let windows delete this program to see if it will help my problems.

I have a couple of entries on the ADD\Remove listing that will not delete. 

Error messages are Setup.Ex has encountered a problem and must close - this for a program called Google Earth.

And Logitech Desk Messenger has an error message but it goes by so fast unable to read it; the listing just will not delete.

Found both in the registry but as a novice, hesitate to do anything there!  Not sure any of these has anything to do with my PC troubles right now.

I always let windows delete any software program unless the program itself has a deletion option.  There are some listings that I do not know anything about but would not dare to delete unless I had advice or knew more about them.

 What else can I do to resolve my PC problems or is there something I have missed along the way in your efforts to help me?

Again all the downloads went well but these problems persist:

1 - very very slow downloads particularly if pictures are involved

2 - emails are especially slow to download so that I have advised email correspondents to cease embedding pictures in emails as they seem to stop up the downloads completely.  Attachments do not seem to be an issue.

3 - one correspondent's emails go to my deleted box instead of the inbox (am using Outlook Express by the way) so have to continually be aware of this.  This person lives in England and is on AOL.

4 - moving about on the internet is so frustrating that I frequently have to give up attaining some sites.

5 - cannot see some sites because IE browser refuses to recognize that I have Flash Player 10 installed.  Some of these sites are crucial to my work on the PC so need to resolve this issue eventally.

Do appreciate your efforts thus far and willing to wait and work if such needs to be done to resolve any of my problems.

You've certainly got a lot of issues.  I don't know if they're all virus-related, but we'll try to find out.  For starters...to remove the bold entry I posted above, simply open HijackThis and click on the option that says something along the lines of Scan without saving a log.  It will bring up a list of entries.  Simply scroll down to the R3 section, place a checkmark next to the entry above, and click on Fix Checked.

Once you have done that, try to follow the instructions below...
Download ComboFix by sUBs from one of the below links.  Be sure to save it to the Desktop.

http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
http://subs.geekstogo.com/ComboFix.exe

Close any open web browsers (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc) before starting ComboFix.

Temporarily disable your anti-virus, and any anti-spyware real-time protection before performing a scan. Click this link (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html) to see a list of security programs that should be disabled and how to disable them.

Double-click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
When finished, ComboFix will produce a log for you.
Post the ComboFix log and a new HijackThis log in your next reply.

NOTE: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

Remember to re-enable your anti-virus and anti-spyware protection when ComboFix is complete.  Also, keep in mind that the ComboFix log probably won't fit into one post, so you may have to break it up into sections.

Post by: nondaj on January 07, 2009, 07:45:55 PM
OK - got down to the link that was to bring up list of protection programs to disable but could not find any list.

All I could find on the screen that came up was ads for spyware removal programs.  So where did I miss the boat?
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 08, 2009, 01:00:27 AM
Take a look at the image I have attached below.  Is that not the page you see?  If it is, you are supposed to look for your anti-virus in the list (use Ctrl+F if you have trouble) and it will explain how to disable it.  If that's not the page you see, then you may have a browser hijacker.  If that's the case...are you able to download ComboFix?  If not, let me know.  But if you can, go ahead and download it.  You are using ESET, correct?  You should be able to simply right-click the icon near the bottom-right of your screen, and choose Quit.  When asked if you want to quit, click Yes.  Then follow the rest of my previous instructions.

Give it a shot and let me know what your results are.

Ah ha browser hi-jacker makes sense from what little I know re PCs because it is the internet and email where most of my problems lie.  No I do not see that screen you showed, yes I was able to download the Combo file and yes will turn off my ESET NOD32.  Keep you posted how I make out.

hope I have followed through correctly.
Yes, you're doing just fine.

There's not a whole lot showing up in your logs.  ComboFix did delete a few infections, though, so hopefully that's all there is.  How is your computer running now?  Is your browser still being redirected?  Are you still having issues with your downloads?  If so, we may need to dig deeper.  Let me know what the current status is and we'll take it from there.

In the meantime, I want you to copy the text below in the code box:
Code: [Select]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Classes\CLSID\{77DC1A39-F0B6-206E-C977-3FC350D757AC}]

Open up Notepad and paste the text there.  Go to File > Save As, then click on Save As Type and select All Files.  Save the file to the desktop as remove.reg and close Notepad.  Double-click on the file you have just created.  If prompted to Run or Cancel, click on Run.  When asked if you want to add this to your registry, click on Yes.  This will only take a second or two.  You can then delete the file.

Follow those steps and then when you can, get back to me with an update on your situation.

First of all right after I ran ComboFix file, noted a new icon for IE on my desktop.   So deleted the old one on quick start toolbar.  Tried the new IE and what a wonder!  The internet problem of being so extremely slow has cleared up!!!!!!

Email problems remain
    more new emails going to deleted file
    not all emails are being downloaded from server when I check there
    not sure yet about the ability to download
        embedded objects in emails

I also have flash player problems
and cannot view DVD movies on my PC

However, think these two issues may be different post material?

Spy Hunter continues to malfunction and since Combfix turned off Win. Defender and I have been questioning that program all along; I took the risk of deleting it.

So far all as outlined above re the internet continues to work well.  Am now thinking of deleting Spy Hunter - does not work anyway and always suspected it also of causing problem - but do not really know.

Accessing the web now is such a pleasure!  Thanks to you.  What more should I be doing?

Post by: nondaj on January 08, 2009, 04:41:40 PM
Forgot to note that I followed your latest instruction re the registry fix and all went well.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 08, 2009, 11:22:11 PM
I personally don't care for SpyHunter, nor do I really trust it.  If I were you, I would stick to using AVG for anti-virus and keeping Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware handy if you ever need them.  SpyHunter may be causing some issues, but I doubt it's causing all of them.

You should go ahead and download CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) (install without Yahoo! toolbar) and configure it according to this guide (http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,22078.0.html).  This will clean out your computer some by removing a lot of junk you don't need.  Make sure you also let it clear your Temporary Internet Files.  Going through this process may help with your internet somewhat.

I'm not sure what to say about your e-mail.  It could be a problem with your filters or settings.  It's possible that these problems were caused by an infection, but I've honestly never seen this happen.  What program do you use for e-mail?  Have you tried using a differen program?  A lot of people really like Mozilla Thunderbird.  If you'd like help with troubleshooting your e-mail problems, I think you would be better off posting over in the Windows or Software section.  I don't use any e-mail programs, so I'm not familiar with all of the features.  The same goes for your DVD problem.

CCleaner might help with Flash, but if not, you should try updating it to the newest version.

I don't suspect an active infection at this point, but if you would like, we can try digging a little deeper to see if there may be something hiding itself on your computer.  If you would to do this, let me know, and I'll give you a couple more programs to scan with.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 09, 2009, 10:08:06 AM
I took it upon myself to delete both Spy Hunter and Windows Defender as for some reason (no real solid proof) just felt they were part of my problem.

Also re Flash Player -since using the 'new' IE icon  I do believe that you have resolved that problem also.  Went on my server, Verizon, which now demands Flash Player.  Though I bet I have installed the silly thing 10 times I tried once more to install and lo and behold it is now working.  IE recognizes the Flash Player files and hopefully the next Flash Player demand will be so honored.

Re email, I think I have tried them all GMail, Yahoo, Mozilla Thunderbird, Outlook, Outlook Express.  I like the simplicity of OE but it is problematic!  I did like Thunderbird very much but had problems in copy/pasting (I never foreward emails), and deleting items in emails especially the red lines. If you can make suggestions how to handle these would be pleased to use Thunderbird.  It reminds me of the old Netscape email program.

As for DVD will post on the windows site here and see if I can get a handle on what I need to do.

Re digging deeper to find issues with my PC - hey would love to IF you have the time and inclination.  You have no idea how much you have helped me by getting my PC back on track.  Is there anyway I can repay for this help as you have saved me quite a bit of money.  The desert area of CA where I live is short of resources particularly tech help.  What is here either costs the proverbial'arm and a leg' and is offered by people claiming to be techs but are not that well versed in what they are doing.

Does this site accept donations?  Guess the workers here do not? but the site must cost someone to keep it active.

And re going on to find more issues on my PC have to tell you I fell in love with PCs when I was in my forties.  My son who has is own PC business introduced me to Windows as I was at the time learning computer languages (Basic/Cobalt) to handle programming.  After windows I never looked back and the PC industry and its advances has only increased my addiction to the technology.

Am now twice the age as when I started and my PC is my lifeline both for pleasure and for work as I teach at our local college.  Your help has aided me in coordinating my work responsibilities with the main frame computer at the college.  A necessity for my classes.  So again I thank you very much and ready to dig away deeper into my PC:)

Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 09, 2009, 10:25:24 AM
Rambled on in the last post so now am following your instructions re protection programs to use:

AVG
Malwarebytes
Super AntiSpy
CCleaner

Do you have an opinion on Obit's Advanced System Care (have bought the pro version so would like to keep unless it too causes problems.  Also last tech installed RegScrub and Smart Defrag.  Really do not need either as far as I am concerned.  Have no problems defragging\scan discing on my own.  Do I need Windows Malicious Tool Remover?

Think my biggest problem might be the fact I am womanly fanatic re cleaning my PC - almost do it on a daily basis.  Also where fools tread, I also clean the registry quite often.  Have been told novices should stay clear of Registry tampering:)

In changing antivirus programs want to make sure I do it correctly - is this the method?:

1 - download AVG but do not install
2 - unplug my modem
3 - delete ESET NOD32
4 - install AVG
5 - turn on modem
6 - update AVG
7 - off and running

And last I have 17 icons re all programs you have referred me to so I take it I can now delete all except for the above which you recommended I keep?
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 09, 2009, 12:08:43 PM
I'm very glad I have been able to help some.  I appreciate the offer, but it really isn't necessary.  After all, you did all of the work.  I just showed you how.  Because so many people ask, I have a donation link (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=VZ4ADRD437C62&lc=US&item_name=CBMatt&cn=Add%20a%20special%20comment%20if%20you%20would%20like&no_shipping=1&currency_code=USD&bn=PP%2dDonationsBF%3abtn_donate_LG%2egif%3aNonHosted), but I never ask for money in return for my help on here, and neither does the owner of Computer Hope.  All we really want is for you to try to keep your computer in good shape.

Now, with that said...if you would like to dig a little deeper, I'd be happy to help.  This is going to be a very large log (and the scan may take awhile), so I will also instruct you on uploading the file to a filehost.  Because these logs are often so large, I likely won't be able to go through the entire thing, but it will give me a good idea of what's on your computer.  Simply follow the below steps if you wish to give it a try...
Download to your desktop ISeeYouXP.exe by ShadowPuterDude (http://downloads.malwareteks.com/ISeeYouXP.exe)
Next double-click on ISeeYouXP.exe on your Desktop.
 
ISeeYouXP.exe will self-extract ISeeYouXP to C:\ISeeYouXP and place a .bat file on your Desktop.

Double-click ISeeYouXP.bat to run the script.

Once complete a log will be saved to the Desktop named ISeeYouXP.txt.
           
Post the following logs in your next reply:
ISeeYouXP.txt

If the ISeeYouXP .bat file does not extract to the Desktop. Double-click My Computer on the Desktop and navigate to the ISeeYouXP folder located in the C: drive. Double-click the ISeeYouXP.bat file to run the program.

Upload the file to Savefile.com (http://savefile.com/upload.phpSelect/)
There is no need to Register
Select Browse and locate the file.
Fill in the Title and Description and security code then click Upload
Copy the download link next to Your link to the file: and post the link back here.

This is another thing that would be better for one of the other sections because frankly, my experience is limited.  I have used AOL exclusively for several years now.  The only other program I have sufficient experience with is Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, as I had to take a course on it to go towards my AS degree.  I honestly haven't used Outlook Express in about 5-8 years!  If I looked hard enough, I could perhaps find the appropriate information online, but someone else may be able to do it quicker.

I haven't personally used IObit, but I don't normally hear anything bad about it.  It has conflicts with certain programs, but it should be fine with everything you have.  And feel free to ditch RegScrub and Smart Defrag.  CCleaner can take RegScrub's place and I really see no reason to replace the Windows defrag utility.  Go ahead and keep the Windows MTR.  It's not the most versatile program, but it's good to keep as a backup.

Those steps sound good, but forget what I said about AVG.  I forgot that you already have ESET installed.  It's one of the best programs available.  AVG is a great free alternative (it's what I use), but many feel that ESET is better.  Either way, you will have sufficient protection.  If you wish to switch to AVG, then it looks like you know just how to do it.

Definitely keep Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware and CCleaner.  If you're worried about desktop clutter, you can simply delete the icons.  The programs should be in your Start menu, in the Programs section.  Feel free to uninstall HijackThis.  And you should uninstall ComboFix.  To do this, simply go to Start > Run and type in combofix /u (note the space) and click OK.

You should also clear out your System Restore points by turning it off and then turning it back on...

If you want to try ISeeYouXP, post the log whenever you're ready.  And if you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Have typed out all your instructions and will be following through.  May take me a bit as the semester start is fast approaching and am caught up in lesson planning, syllabus development etc.  But will keep you posted.

Re donation will consider Paypal. Do not yet have an account but son said Paypal is quite secure.  Just had my ID stolen and so am very careful about online use when it comes to money.  Again keep you posted re this matter.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 09, 2009, 11:31:55 PM
The ISeeYouXP.exe file did not self-extract, could not find on my C drive to double click a bat file.  But something went right because next thing I knew when I double clicked the exe file, it did its thing and I now have a long log txt to send you.

At this point I got rather lost in the uloading the file to Savefile.com because could not find the bat file.

Am sending the log I do have and awaiting further support as to what to do next.

I see what you mean by work!  By the time I finished posting this log my eyes were crossed, brain fried and lost track of time :P

Am not at all sure I got it all and in correct sequence.  Let me know and will try again when it is early in the AM and I am clicking on all fours :-\

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Re donation will consider Paypal. Do not yet have an account but son said Paypal is quite secure.  Just had my ID stolen and so am very careful about online use when it comes to money.  Again keep you posted re this matter.
Like I said, it's really don't necessary, so don't feel obligated.  I really don't feel like I deserve it.  Heh.

I have to imagine that posting the log this way was a pain and I apologize, but I promise I won't make you do it again anytime soon.  Ha.  It's difficult to be super thorough with one of these, but from I can see, nothing strikes me as being out of the ordinary.  As far as active infections go, I'd say you're in the clear.  As long as you can get your other issues worked out, you should be good to go.

Good to hear and have recovered from log posting.  Old saying - no pains no gains so it was worth hearing I am fairly clean re PC issues. ;D

Last questions before you go:

I run CCleaner daily; any problem running the registry option daily also?

and just curious - have heard pros and cons about cleaning out prefetch files weekly;  so far have not noticed that it reaches a limit and does so automatically as some claim.

Again thanks for all your help; it is so nice to sit at the PC and enjoy it as pleasure now much less be working on it and not being so frustrated.  Have posted my DVD Win. Med. problem on I hope the appropriate site.  When that is clear then all my issues will have been attended to.

If I have further like issues I take it I can return to this forum and hopefully get you?  Been a pleasure working with you.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 11, 2009, 09:54:38 PM
You shouldn't have to run the registry scanner daily, but I see no harm in doing so.  It basically just looks for registry entries that don't work properly and removes them.  Nothing too invasive.

As for prefetch files, I generally don't bother.  You may want to remove any that look like they belong to suspicious files.  But as long as they all belong to your normal programs, then removing them isn't worth your time.  They're harmless and they take up very little space.  And besides, they help open your programs faster.

You can most definitely come back anytime if you have any further problems.  I get busy from time to time, but I'm usually here and I'm always happy to help.

My last question - really :P  I just noticed I still have some three JavaRa files yet that you had me download.  I also have Jave 6 TM update 11 installed .  Not sure if they are the same OR which to delete if need be.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 12, 2009, 12:06:11 PM
Quote
1. Download JavaRa and unzip the file to your Desktop.
2. Open JavaRA.exe and choose Remove Older Versions
3. Once complete exit JavaRA.
4. Run CCleaner.

Did you follow all 4 of the steps above?  If so, then you can go ahead and remove JavaRa.  Be sure to keep Java 6 Update 11.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 12, 2009, 04:31:00 PM
Yes, I did - all four steps so will go ahead and delete the JavaRa.  Thanks so much - again ::)

Just happened to run your log through the new processor tool I'm working on and noticed you're running Windows XP SP2, I'd also recommend if your system is going smoothly now to update to Windows XP SP3.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 28, 2009, 11:41:57 AM
Just posted another issue and the reply I got was here.  Did not know you had suggested SP3.  I tried this once and had problems with it - there were some sites I could not get to work and they were related to my college work so that plus other issues I had caused me to uninstall it and stay away from it.

Should perhaps try again and then 'lean on you' for support when things go wrong?   :P

I think there were some configuration issues I was told that caused the problems with SP3.  What say you?

Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: Computer Hope Admin on January 28, 2009, 02:26:34 PM
Although some minor issues were discovered upon the initial release of SP3 most issues caused by SP3 were due to malware and other software configurations that conflicted with the installation. Personally I'd always recommend keeping fully up-to-date with all software updates. It's ok to withhold upgrading when first released because often big updates like a service pack can have issues. However, there has been plenty of time for Microsoft to work out any of the bugs.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 28, 2009, 03:27:25 PM
OK good reasoning - will give it a try.  I guess if worst comes to worst, can one uninstall SP3  going back to SP2?  Or is that not an option?

I use my PC in my work and since the semester has just strted do not need any issues right at this time.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: CBMatt on January 28, 2009, 08:01:21 PM
SP3 can be uninstalled if necessary.  I really wouldn't worry, though.  There were a few issues when it first came out, but it seems to be smooth sailing now.  It's generally a good idea to have the latest service packs, but if you're worried, you could just avoid it for now.  Although it should be perfectly safe, SP3 isn't nearly as vital as SP2 was.
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on January 28, 2009, 09:47:53 PM
When I have more time might give it a try as long as I know you are there to console the jittery nerves if I run into trouble ::)    ;D

Just now got back to your post re SP3.  I plan to do so but am waiting until I have a day when I can cope with what might ever happen.   When I installed the SP3 in the past, it caused several problems about accessing some sites which I needed due to working on PC.

But have made several changes in PC configuration so will try SP3 again.  Hopefully this week sometime.  CBMatt has said if I have any problems he would stand by:)

Will attempt tomorrow re installation as I do not work that day.  :)
Title: Re: PC slowdown
Post by: nondaj on April 28, 2009, 04:09:09 PM
to CB Matt:  You probably do not remember me but you gave me excellent help around my PC slowdown and further advocated I put on SP3.  You also said if I needed further help re the SP3 to return here.

Have added SP2 without and reprocussions.  However have two minor issues that I could use help with:

1 - PC has notably slowed down in all aread

2 - when I boot up and my desktop appears, I have to wait some period of time for the icons to appear.

Not big issues but would like some way to correct if possible.
