Desktop Suddenly Slowed
Quite a while ago my desktop started to run very slowly for some odd reason, and I can remember quite clearly some of the ways that it did. For instance in World of Warcraft the player models would always load last, and the loading screens would take forever when it said it was finished, leaving my mouse available to scroll around with pointlessly.
Getting back on topic, my computer suddenly (about a few weeks ago) started running smoothly, and everything was fine until yesterday, when I got tired of receiving the "Update iTunes now!" message every time I loaded it.
So I updated my iTunes, reinstalled, and voila, my computer had been back to it's slow self. The same symptoms and occurences are back now. So I uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime, only to find that it didn't help at all.
I'm a little baffled at the moment, and having this slowness back irritates me a lot.
I will appreciate any help, thanks.

Getting back on topic, my computer suddenly (about a few weeks ago) started running smoothly, and everything was fine until yesterday, when I got tired of receiving the "Update iTunes now!" message every time I loaded it.
So I updated my iTunes, reinstalled, and voila, my computer had been back to it's slow self. The same symptoms and occurences are back now. So I uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime, only to find that it didn't help at all.
I'm a little baffled at the moment, and having this slowness back irritates me a lot.
I will appreciate any help, thanks.

You have some nice infections there we need to get rid of.
At first, I suggest to print out these directions or save them into desktop as text file.
After that, please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and ComboFix to your desktop.
Note: It is important that these tools are saved directly to your desktop
Step 1:
- Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
- Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
- If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
- Once the program has loaded, please reboot into Safe Mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8.A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode. Log in using your default account.
- Once in Safe Mode, please run MBAM and select "Perform full Scan", then click Scan.
- The scan may take some time to finish, so please be patient.
- When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
- Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
- When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart (include this log in your next reply).
- The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
Step 2:When back in Normal mode, please close / disable all antivirus and antimalware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
- When finished, it will produce a report for you.
- Please post the C:\ComboFix.txt along with a new HijackThis log for further review.
Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall.For information regarding Combofix, please visit this webpage:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix
Step 3:
Please post MBAM's and ComboFix's logs.
I am not currently at home but as soon as I get there I will do all of this and report back here.
Just a quick note, I ran a chkdsk on my c drive last night, as the ntfs claimed it to be dirty. :P Don't know why this would matter I just thought I'd let you know just in case.
Also, a few months ago I had symptoms of Virtumonde on my computer, so I attempted to get rid of it, but I'm not quite sure if it's gone. Just another sidenote I thought you should know.
Thanks again,
Slyfox

ComboFix Log:
Everything went very smoothly and a lot seemed to be removed.
When the scan is complete, please check mark following entries:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {2C5E523F-F71A-4428-B9DB-3A53960BAC1A} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\jkkji.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinLoader] á
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [WinLoader] á
Finally, click Fix Checked
After that, do a scan with Kaspersky
Note: Internet Explorer should be used
Thanks again for continuing to help me solve this problem.
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {2C5E523F-F71A-4428-B9DB-3A53960BAC1A} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\jkkji.dll (file missing)
That file was not in the Hijackthis scan log. The other two I did remove.
