Need help, my computer is acting very wierd

kapli

Hiya
Let me get straight to the point since its the "Emergency", forums.
When i start up my computer some programs work and some dont, i have to wait about 3min until everything works properly.
Computer crashes, it just restarts.
Sometimes my computer just, i dont know how to say it
I cant move the mouse or anything it just stands still in 5 sec, then i can move again, then it stands still...
I have a wierd yellow thing in the lower right corner saying theres something wrong with my computer (pop-up thingy).
When i try to enter windowsupdate (both on microsoft.com and on the computer) it just screws up, i cant view it.
In task manager i have a few wierd processes running: shnlog.exe and intmon.exe
Here is the HijackThis log:

Just one more thing, my games crash and come with error: out of memory, memory could not me read, memory could not be written
Its random.

I hope you can help me and thanks in advance!
(sorry for my bad English)
[EDIT]
Sorry, if this is the wrong forum please move it

edcentric

Have you tried booting in safe mode?
That may be one way to get the system up and start sorting it out.

Another thing to try is memtest, you may have something wrong with your memory.
Though I am leaning toward software issues.

Have you gone to the spyware forum and folled all of the suggested steps?

Reboot your computer to go back to normal mode.

Once you have rebooted Download the following reg file to your desktop by right clicking on the link, and selecting save as.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/reg/smitfraud.reg

Once it has downloaded, double-click on the smitfraud.reg file on your desktop and when it asks if you would like to merge the data, click on the Yes button.

Reboot your computer and you should now be able to change your desktop settings back to how you would like it. If your desktop still looks strange, go into your display properties and click on the Themes tab. Change the theme to Windows XP and you will now be using the default Windows XP settings. Then change them as you see fit.

Reboot and post a new hijackthis log and let me know of any problems you experienced.

God bless you!
Everything seems to be working good, exept the memory errors and crashes.

I just have to thank you so much!
Now everything is working great
Exept for some crashes and memory errors
Also since it looks like you are very experienced with this, when i start up my computer i can choose of 2 windows

bumping for help again...

Buckeye_Sam

Your log is clean. If I understand your Windows problem correctly the only way to resolve that is to completely format and reinstall Windows.

Do you have a folder named Windows.000, or something similar to that?

No i dont have a folder similar to that.
I already reformatted the computer 2-3 months ago when i had the memory errors and the crashes but it didnt help
I have noticed that the most crashes comes when im downloading stuff via torrents, i guess i can live with the few memory errors and the crashes.
Thank you for all the help, you have helped me alot!

Glad I could help out.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

1. Disable and Enable System Restore. - If you are using Windows ME or XP then you should disable and reenable system restore to make sure there are no infected files found in a restore point left over from what we have just cleaned.
   
   You can find instructions on how to enable and reenable system restore here:
   
   Managing Windows Millenium System Restore
   
   or
   
   Windows XP System Restore Guide
   
   Renable system restore with instructions from tutorial above
   
   
2. Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
   1. From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
   2. Click once on the Security tab
   3. Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
   4. Click once on the Custom Level button.
      1. Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
         
      2. Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
         
      3. Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
         
      4. Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
         
      5. Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
         
      6. Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
         
      7. When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
         
      8. If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
   5. Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
   
   
3. Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.
   
   See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:
   
   Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources
   
   
4. Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperitive that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.
   
   
5. Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer. Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over. I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients. Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.
   
   For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:
   
   Understanding and Using Firewalls
   
   
6. Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
   
   
7. Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection. You should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software.
   
   A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
   
   Using Spybot - Search & Destroy to remove Spyware , Malware, and Hijackers
   
   
8. Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.
   
   A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
   
   Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer
   
   
9. Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
   
   A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
   
   Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware
   
   
10. Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.
