Thanks again for looking at this for me!

Hi Siggy

===============

Go to www.trendmicro.com, and then:

1. Click "Free Online Scan".
2. Click "Scan now, it's free".

It'll take a few minutes to download (especially with a dialup connection), so be patient. When it's down:

1. Select all available drives.
2. Check(tick) "Auto Clean".
3. Click "Scan".

When it completes, post back the full filename of any files that cannot be cleaned or deleted.

===============

Let's look for, and delete, any program segments(prefetches) that might be present, and are associated with the 'problems' we're trying to remove from this system. To do this, let's:

1) Click "Start | Search", then search for each of these program's base name(s), in all files and folders:

qto.exe*

2) Then if any are found in the 'prefetch' folder, delete them.

Look closely, since the 'base' name will have a bunch of random numbers and letters attached to it.

===============

Run HiJackThis then:

1. Click "Config..."
2. Click "Misc Tools"
3. Click "Open Process manager"

-

Next, while holding down the CTRL key, locate (if present) and click on (highlight) each of the following:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\qto.exe

Now double-check and make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted, then click "Kill process". Now, click "Refresh", check again, and repeat this step if any remain.
===============

Run HiJackThis and click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ff] qto.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [ff] qto.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ff] qto.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Microsoft Update Machine] Winregs32.exe


Now, with all windows closed except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

===============

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure your able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

files...

C:\WINDOWS\system32\qto.exe

Search for...

Winregs32.exe

...using "Start | Search...".

-

Note that some of these file(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them from "Safe Mode".

===============

Post back a new log after rebooting and let me know how everything goes.

Siggy

Crunchie,

thanks for the help M8, I really appreciate it. I have managed to clean it all up i think!

Congratulations! Your log looks clean - good work!

===============

It's probably a good idea to defragment your hard drive too. This may well improve the performance of your PC.

===============

Download, install and run Cleanup! from Steven Gould, then:

1. Click "Cleanup!"

(wait for the program to finish scanning your system, and selecting files to be removed.)

2. Exit the program and reboot the computer, if necessary.

-

For more information about using Cleanup! see here.

===============

If everything is running ok, let's do the final cleanup...

===============

1. Run "Disk Cleanup" and allow it to remove everything it finds.

2. Go to www.trendmicro.com and click "Free Online Scan", then "Scan now, it's free!". When it's downloaded, select all available drives, then check(tick) "Auto clean", then click "Scan".

3. Run AdAware SE Personal and "perform a full system scan", then Spybot S&D, and "Check for Problems". Let them both remove the residual 'problems' left that HiJackThis couldn't fix.

4. Disable, then re-enable system restore; with a reboot in-between. Then immediately create a new system point manually.

===============

If your having any more problems, post back.

-

Happy surfing,

crunchie.

Ok I thought I was done with this one, But I cant get the scandisk or defrag to work!. Each one will get so far and then freeze. With the defrag i get a blue screen of death. The PC is busy, click any key to return to windows and wait or Ctr Alt Del again to restart, only thing I can do is power off and then restart.

I am sure the PC is nasty free, but cant understand why the hard drive is now blowing up on me!

try doing it all in safe mode.
