    Registry....
    « on: August 07, 2008, 01:21:54 AM »
    Okay so I truly believe after following many many steps countless times that something is in my registry(I think i have some half installed software in there actually). AVG found a restry error and I was researching it moving along nicely. So I wondered about a program designed for that,on your sites suggestions there was 3 links I chose the Glary Utility. I ran the restry cleaner and the results are 622! 622? really.
    I haven't cleaned anything or fix'd anything. So what do you think I should do now? seriously I am like wow.

    Registry tools are dangerous, and that's an understatement.

    What is it you are actually trying to do?

      Its a long story. But I think I have a restry key left in there from an old virus. On top of that I was removing some programs one day and I think I half installed or something.
      My computer can not be pinged as if I have a firewall up which I do not.

      So i was trying to see if I had traces of Norton or Comondo or something left in there blocking things.

      And it is saying I have over 600 restry errors,it doesn't sound right to me.

      Glary Utilities is good software but in my opinion way too aggressive in what it removes. Too many times I have see where it was ran, all items fixed, then the computer wouldn't boot to Windows. You should uninstall it.

      Can you do a System Restore to before this problem with pinging started happening and then let me suggest some better ways of dealing with the virus, and uninstalling whatever it is you need uninstalled?

        Restore won't go back that far. I had systen restore off then or something. Its been awhile. I am a persistant person. I try and figure it out for awhile then stop. I usually get re-install windows as a reply but I find it more intertaining to figure it out. So I would say I am ready for your suggestions.

        Can you access the Internet or are you unable to connect on the PC?

          That to me is the hilarious part. I can connect to the internet I can surf all that. I can't do things like play WoW if I wanted to(which I don't) or Poker Stars.I get cannot connect to server.  So this also means my AVG or super anti-spy can't get updates. Also I have Internet Explorer,XP sp2,so when I click tols and diagnose problems,it basically tells me I am not connected to the internet,that i can use another computer to go to microsoft . com  ::)


          I have ran firewall testers and it tells me its working 100%,but my wndows one is OFF,and I have uninstalled other programs that I thought had firewalls. This computer had Norten on it and Mcafee at one point.

          During another whats wrong with my computer mission I had Comondoand AVAST I have uninstalled it too.

          Also when I go into Safemode I can Play poker stars and I can download updates for AVG ect.,however I can't access yahoo games,specifically Spelldown :(

          So this time when I ran AVG i did get two results and they were registry items.,hence my curiosity as too if my registry is screwd somewhere.

          So I googled those two results one result is telling me to remove a certain registry key,the other seems to be just a sensitive find.

          I am running scans again and will post logs when you want them.

            Still waiting on scans. However I just thought of something I restored my computer once to factory settings,and I did back-up everything. So If I can't figure out this problem I am having,Can I restore the back-up easily.

            still waiting on scans to finish will post logs shortly.

            Yes the backup will work.

            Do you have your install CD?

              Yes I do,however if I lose the files on media player I fear I will be yelled at til my head explodes.

              and I have never done uch a pocess with a disk so I am a tad intimidated.

              I have two of the 3 logs the sticky says to post. I can't figure out where the log is on SuperAnti SPY though.

              Open SAS and click on Preferences.
              Now click the Statistics/Logs tab.
              You will find the log in there.

                Go to My Computer->Tools->Folder Options->View tab:
                • Under the Hidden files and folders heading:
                • Select Show hidden files and folders.
                • Uncheck Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
                • Also, make sure there is no checkmark beside Hide file extensions for known file types.
                • Click OK
                .
                ----------

                Open HijackThis and select Do a system scan only.

                Place a check mark next to the following entries: (if there)

                • R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 134.87.141.73:80

                • O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SecurityUpdate] rundll32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\sotohuf.dll,TurnOn2
                .
                Important: Close all windows except for HijackThis and then click Fix checked.

                Exit HijackThis.

                ----------

                Now locate and delete this file.

                C:\WINDOWS\system32\sotohuf.dll

                Restart the computer and let me know how things are now.
