      Still no difference, and its odd, the memory is always at 62,496, never seen it change. And the VM is at 88, but sometimes it goes to 110.....this is so weird...

      The OTMoveIt fix didn't work. I edited the directions so please run it again and post the new log. Also don't forget the Rooter scan.

        Scan with Panda ActiveScan 2.0

        This scanner requires Internet Explorer

        • Once you are on the Panda site click the Scan your PC now button
        • A new window will open...click the Check Now button
        • Enter your Country
        • Enter your State/Province
        • Enter your e-mail address and click send
        • Select either Home User or Company
        • Select the appropriate Yes or No to receiving marketing information
        • Click the Free Online Scan button
        • If it wants to install an ActiveX component allow it
        • It will start downloading the files it requires for the scan (Note: It may take a couple of minutes)
        • When download is complete, click on My Computer to start the scan
        • When the scan completes, if anything malicious is detected, click the See Report button, then Save Report and save it to a convenient location.
        .
        Post the contents of the ActiveScan report in your next reply.

          This actually would not work in IE, as I have 8, and it wants 6 or 7.....but works well with Firefox 1.5 or higher. Anywho....here is the results.

          • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox
          • Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /u
          • Then hit Enter.
          .
          .
          The above procedure will:
          • Delete:
            • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
            • VundoFix backups, if present
            • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
            • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
            • Reset the clock settings.
            • Hide file extensions, if required.
            • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
            • Set a new, clean Restore Point.
            .
            ----------


            Set a New Restore Point to prevent possible reinfection from an old one
            Setting a new restore point AFTER cleaning your system will enable your computer to roll-back to a clean working state if needed.
            • Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click System Restore
            • Choose the radio button marked Create a Restore Point on the first screen then click Next Give the Restore Point a name then click Create.
            • The new restore point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.
            • Next go to Start > Run and type Cleanmgr
            • Click OK
            • Click the More Options Tab.
            • Click Clean Up in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created clean one.
            You can find instructions on how to enable and re-enable system restore here:

            Windows XP System Restore Guide or Windows Vista System Restore Guide
            .
            ----------

            Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.
            • Click Start Now
            • Check the box next to Enable thorough system inspection.
            • Click Start
            • Allow the scan to finish and scroll down to see if any updates are needed.
            • Update anything listed.
            .
            ----------

            Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates.

            ----------

            How is the computer running now?

              I have a bunch of different versions of flash...adobe and  Macromedia......do I need all the different ones? or can they somehow be removed so all I have is one. I guess whatever i need is what i want, unneeded...no.

              Download the Flash Player Uninstaller and save it to your desktop.

              Run the uninstaller program and then reboot your computer to complete the uninstall.

              Download and install the latest version of Flash Player

                Ok got that, but it still tells me theres a Java thats old on here, even tho I removed them all and updated.
                Also, earlier, everything was hanging, and moving S L O W...so I pulled up my task manager, System still taking up a
                bunch of memory but there was a wowexe.exe on there, I have seen this before but not for a while. As soon as
                I end process things go back to normal, but this looks very weird to me, the way its indented like that, and not showing
                what its using? Screen Copy attached.

                Wowexec.exe (Windows on Windows subsystem) and Ntvdm.exe (NT Virtual DOS
                Machine) are used to run 16-bit programs (DOS programs) in a virtual
                environment. If they are being used you will see the programs indented
                under the Ntvdm.exe entry in the Task Manager. Ntvdm.exe and
                Wowexec.exe will remain in memory after you close the 16-bit
                application, "in case" you want to launch another 16-bit program. If
                these items are started when you boot the computer, but no associated
                program is shown under them, check your startup items, some 16-bit
                program is set to start and do something when the computer starts. That
                "16-bit something" could be anything.

                I don't think it's malware but could be running due to malware.

                Download DrWeb CureIt & save it to your desktop. Scan with DrWeb-CureIt as follows:
                • Double-click on drweb-cureit.exe and then click Start
                • An information notice will appear, click OK.
                • This starts a short scan that will scan the files currently running in memory.
                • If you get a prompt to buy the full version just exit out of the window. The scanner will still work without buying the full version
                • If or when something is found, click the Yes button when it asks you if you want to cure it.
                • Once the short scan has finished, Click Settings > Change Settings
                • Under the Scanning tab UNcheck Heuristic analysis and click OK
                • Back at the main window, select the Complete scan button and then click the Green Arrow Start Scanning button on the right and the scan will start.
                  • Click Yes to all if it asks if you want to cure/move any file(s).
                • When the scan is done.
                • In the Dr.Web CureIt menu on top left, click File and choose Save report list.
                • Save the DrWeb.csv report to your Desktop.
                • Exit Dr.Web Cureit.
                • Important! Reboot your computer because it could be possible that files in use will be moved/deleted during reboot.
                [/COLOR]
                • After reboot, Right-click the Dr.Web log on the desktop and choose Open With > Notepad
                • Copy and paste that log in the next reply
                [/list]

                  Whatever issues remain are likely not malware related.

                  Try posting in the Windows forum for further help.
