Answer» OTM asked to reboot directly after processing.. hence, this log came from notepad that popped up afterwards, not from results window: All processes killed You should be good to go now. 1. Double click OTM to launch it. Vista users right click and choose Run As Administrator 2. Click on the CleanUp! button. 3. OTM 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. When finished EXIT out of OTM. ---------- Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.
---------- Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates. ---------- I suggest using WOT - Web of Trust. WOT is a free Internet security ADDON for your browser. It will keep you safe from online scams, identity theft, spyware, spam, viruses and unreliable shopping sites. WOT warns you before you interact with a risky website. It's easy and it's free. 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 Protect yourself against spyware using the Immunize feature in Spybot - Search & Destroy. Guide: Use Spybot's Immunize Feature to prevent spyware infection in real-time. Note: To ensure you have the latest Immunizations always update Spybot - Search & Destroy before IMMUNIZING. Spybot - Search & Destroy FAQ 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.I still need to confirm a few things - about multiple programs that has been installed so far, is it safe to delete/uninstall 'em? here is the list: - TFC - HJT - CCleaner - malwarebytes - superantispyware coz isn't it better to have just one anti spyware/malware to avoid slowdown? which one do you recommend so far: malwarebytes, superantispyware, spywareblaster, spybot - that I should use? I ran Secunia: Detection Statistics: 0 Programs Detected in Total 0 Insecure Versions Detected 0 Updated Versions Detected and installed WOT and GOT TuneUp utilities from my friend. {it should be sufficient to have all-in-one maintenance tool} Quote coz isn't it better to have just one anti spyware/malware to avoid slowdown? Update and run both SAS and MBAM now and then. The free versions don't run in real time so they won't interfere with anything. You can uninstall HJT. TFC is very good for cleaning out temp files. Use CCleaner daily (or so) and use TFC once a week or every other week. |
