Explorer started successfully OTMoveIt2 by OldTimer - Version 1.0.4.3 log created on 07312008_173152 Looks good. The next log won't be needed. I think you are finally malware free Final steps. Let me know if you have any questions. 1. Double click OTMoveIt2.exe to launch it. Vista users right click and choose Run As Administrator 2. Click on the CleanUp! button. 3. OTMoveIt2 will download a list from the Internet, if your firewall or other defensive programs alerts you, allow it access. 4. Click YES at the next prompt (list downloaded, Do you want to begin cleanup process?) 5. Once complete exit out of OTMoveIt2 ---------- Set a New Restore Point to prevent possible reinfection from an old one Setting a new restore point AFTER cleaning your system will enable your computer to roll-back to a clean working state if needed.
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 ---------- Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.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. Use only trusted security software like the programs listed on this page. Trusted security tools & resourcesEvilfantasy, Thank you sooooo much for getting me to this point but I do have a question. After I created the New restore point you say to Go to Start > Run and type Cleanmgr Click OK When I do this I do not get an option to Click More Options tab Instead I get a pop up box that says: Select the Drive you want to clean up: What do I do here? Thank You No problem. It's a little different for XP Home. Disable the System Restore Utility to prevent re-infection from an old one 1) Right click the My Computer icon on the Desktop and click on Properties. 2) Click on the System Restore tab. 3) Put a check mark next to Turn off System Restore on All Drives 4) Click the OK button. 5) You will be prompted to restart the computer. Click the Yes button. Now re-enable System Restore To re-enable the System Restore Utility, follow steps one to five and on step three remove the check mark next to 'Turn off System Restore on All Drives'. 1) Right click the My Computer icon on the Desktop and click on Properties. 2) Click on the System Restore tab. 3) Remove the check mark next to Turn off System Restore on All Drives 4) Click the OK button.Evilfantasy, Thank You I disabled and re-enabled the system restore per your instructions. So if I need to go back to a clean working state I will have my Restore point that I created. Hopefully I won't need it though....But I will definitely utilize all your suggestions to keep my computer clean from the bad stuff. I will definitely recommend this site to all my friends and I think you all do a wonderful thing here in helping all of us out who would not know any better. Thank YouNo problem. Glad we got you cleaned up! Safe surfing.............@mthomas: Now back to the original problem - is your computer running faster?My computer is running faster indeed....I still need to use the compressed air to clean out the inside....That is definite, but Internet explorer moves faster from website to website and just an overall great improvement on speed. I have another issue but I will post a new thread for this one. Thank You |
