Answer» Please run ESET again and this time, fix the infections and post the log.doneSo, how's your computer running now? Any other issues?Still unable run the pgm. Quote Still unable run the pgm.Please explain. Do you mean you can't run any programs? Do you get any error messages?Ok probably should have covered this question at the front end, but here we go 1. Bought a little pgm wouldn't run got error msg They eventually responded and said I needed the .net 4 framework. Net 4 said I needed a WIC file/pgm, whatever, found here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=8E011506-6307-445B-B950-215DEF45DDD8&displaylang=en#AffinityDownloads When I saw this page and instructions at bottom didn't know which to download, sounded like there was suppose to be a download button for the whole package. So I downloaded the .esn one for English I'm guessing. Anyway was able to install .Net 4 . Now I get another error msg. Wondering do I need Net 2 or other or diff wic package? Very confusing. [recovering disk space - old attachment deleted by admin]I don't want to sound dense but what is a little pgm? Quote They eventually responded and said I needed the .net 4 framework.Who is They? I did a bit of checking about Net 4 network and there are a couple of sites where you can download it from MS. I'm sorry but I can't help you with that problem. You might have better luck posting that problem in the software forum. Let's do some cleanup. To uninstall ComboFix
(Note: Make sure there's a space between the word ComboFix and the forward-slash.)
Clean out your temporary internet files and temp files. Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop. Double-click TFC.exe to run it. Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator TFC will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin. * Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process. * Depending on how often you clean temp files, EXECUTION time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. * Please let TFC run uninterrupted until it is finished. Once TFC is finished it should restart your computer. If it does not, please manually restart the computer yourself to ensure a complete cleaning. ************************************************** Looking over your log it seems you don't have any evidence of a third party firewall. Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders. You need to download a free firewall from one of these reliable vendors. Remember only install ONE firewall 1) Comodo Personal Firewall (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and uncheck any HopSurf and/or Ask.com options if you choose this one) 2) Online Armor 3) Agnitum Outpost 4) PC Tools Firewall Plus If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it is not recommended as it does not block OUTGOING connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a mediocre firewall. This firewall is NO replacement for a dedicated software solution. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time. *************************************************** 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. ---------- I suggest using WOT - Web of Trust.
