| Answer» Any change with CCleaner? 
 
 
 no, no change with ccleaner. i downloaded the atf cleaner, and that has HELPED somewhat, thanks. but things still run horrifically slow at times. most of the time actually. don't know if this has anything to do with anything, but checking the task manager, when things are running at or near 100%, the main taker is a program "svchost.exe" - what is that and can i just get rid of it? and last (and again, could be completely unrelated), as i am a goof and have somehow managed to lose my cellphone recharger, today i plugged my phone into my computer via a usb cable to recharge it that way. then i noticed my phone started making calls! forgive my complete naivetè, but was that some spyware thing trying to phone home? thanks so much. Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here or here Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application. 
 ---------- Also let me know how things are now.here's the malwarebyte's log: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.18 Database version: 875 0.36.11 25/06/2008 mbam-log-6-25-2008 (00-36-11).txt Scan type: Quick Scan Objects scanned: 39982 Time elapsed: 30 minute(s), 19 second(s) Memory Processes Infected: 0 Memory Modules Infected: 0 Registry Keys Infected: 0 Registry Values Infected: 0 Registry Data Items Infected: 0 Folders Infected: 0 Files Infected: 0 Memory Processes Infected: (No malicious items detected) Memory Modules Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Keys Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Values Infected: (No malicious items detected) Registry Data Items Infected: (No malicious items detected) Folders Infected: (No malicious items detected) Files Infected: (No malicious items detected) I find it really hard to believe it didn't find anything....things are not so good. I'm constantly getting kicked offline, and when I try watch a video or something like that, things get really slow. I'm praying to win something on a lottery ticket, so I can just go out and buy a Mac, and be done with this silliness... perhaps I was impulsive by doing this, but I've found that after I run Fixwareout, things run exceptionally well...for a little while. I just ran one now, and here's the log for that too, if this helps: Username "user" - 25/06/2008 0.48.51 [Fixwareout edited 9/01/2007] ~~~~~ Prerun check Svuotata la cache del resolver DNS.
