Answer» Here is the log for Eset.
Windows XP System Restore Guide or Windows Vista System Restore Guide . ---------- Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.
---------- Important: You Need to Update Windows and Internet Explorer regularly to protect your computer from the MALWARE and other security threats that are on the Internet. Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates. If you are running any Microsoft Office version go to the Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed (Free) Microsoft Office Update. ---------- Please keep these programs up-to-date and run them whenever you suspect a problem. A number of programs have resident protection and it is a good idea to run the resident protection of one of each type of program to maintain protection. However, it is important to run only one resident program of each type since they can conflict and become less effective. That means only one antivirus, firewall and scanning anti-spyware program at a time. Passive protectors, like SpywareBlaster can be run with any of them. Here are some great FREE tools to help you keep from getting infected again. These tools use little or no resources so won't slow down your PC. Concerned about Browser Security? Consider using Mozilla Firefox 3.0 with Adblock Plus and NoScript To prevent unknown applications from being installed on your computer install WinPatrol 2008 * Using Winpatrol to protect your computer from malicious software I suggest using SiteAdvisor. SiteAdvisor rates sites on business practices and spam. Safety ratings from McAfee SiteAdvisor are based on automated safety tests of Web sites. SpywareBlaster - Secure your Internet Explorer to make it harder for ActiveX programs to run on your computer. Also stop certain cookies from being added to your computer when running Mozilla based browsers like Firefox. * Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware * If you don't know what ActiveX controls are, see here Check out Keeping Yourself Safe On The Web for tips and free tools to help keep you safe in the future. Also see Slow Computer? It May Not Be Malware for free cleaning/maintenance tools to help keep your computer running smooth. How is everything now?I created a new restore point and cleaned out the old ones. I attempted to use Secunia and got this error message: CiceroUIWndFrame: iexplore.exe - Application Error The instruction at "0x0303418e" referneced memory at "0x0332ec30". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate. When I clicked on OK another error message came up with new numbers. If I clicked on OK again it went back to the original message and they just keep repeating themselves. I have to logout to get rid of them. I probably will not use IE much anymore as a browser. I am using Flock, which is a newer version of Firefox. Will the programs you suggested to use with Firefox work with Flock? One more question: Is the Microsoft Security program strong enough to use, if updated regularly, or is it better to disable that and use other security programs such as you suggested and/or the ones I already use. I currently have Security Shield 2008, Superantispyware, will reload Spybot and I also have PC Registry Cleaner. I understand to use only one primary of each at a time. I will also LOOK at the programs you suggested and download them. I really want to thank you for your time, help and suggestions. I know it must be a job to sit there and analyze and suggest remedies for all the people who are using this forum. Kudos to you. Quote Will the programs you suggested to use with Firefox work with Flock? No. Most programs will work only with IE and FF. Quote Is the Microsoft Security program strong enough to use What program? Quote I also have PC Registry Cleaner. Where did you download this from? Quote I understand to use only one primary of each at a time. One firewall, one antivirus and one real time antispyware. Spyware Blaster will work with all of them as it doesn't run in real time. The Microsoft Security program I was referring to is Windows Security center found when you use Control Panel. My registry cleaner is PC Tools Registry Mechanic. Sorry for not being more precise.Leave the Windows Security center as it is. PC Tools Registry Mechanic is fine to keep although the functions in CCleaner are much safer in my opinion. It's your choice.Right now I have the Windows Security Center firewall off since I have Security Shield on. Same with the antivirus. I will use CCleaner since I have it downloaded. I'll look at the other programs you suggested also. Thanks again for all the help.Just tried to get into my EMAILS. G mail will not load at all and Yahoo mails are all blank.Run the F-Secure Online Scanner for Viruses, Spyware and RootKits. Note: This Scanner is for Internet Explorer Only!
