You have it in a permanent location, which is good because it makes important backups that you may end up needing. However, to help you avoid clutter and to help ensure that the backups stay safe, I would like you to move it to a special location. Double-click on My Computer to open it and navigate to C:\Program Files. Right-click on the empty (white) space and go to New > Folder. Name the folder something like HJT and move HijackThis into that new folder. If you would still like to run HijackThis from the desktop for convenience, right-click on HijackThis and click on Create Shortcut. This will create a shortcut to the program; move the shortcut to the desktop. Please do a system-wide search on your computer for wmplayer.exe. You may need to enable hidden files and folders. Also, before you start the search, click on Advanced Search Options and then More advanced options, and make sure Search hidden files and folders is checked. Let us know the results of your search. I noticed that you have a lot of ActiveX controls for Internet Explorer. I'm not sure how much these could slow down your computer, but I'm sure they're not helping. We may want to look into this further. Open up HijackThis and close all other windows/browsers. CHECK the following entries... R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Connection Wizard,ShellNext = wmplayer.exe //ICWLaunch O2 - BHO: (no name) - AutorunsDisabled - (no file) O9 - Extra button: (no name) - AutorunsDisabled - (no file) O18 - PROTOCOL: AutorunsDisabled - (no CLSID) - (no file) R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 64.34.113.100:80 (If you or the administrator didn't set this proxy, then it should be checked.) O6 - HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present O6 - HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present (If you or your system administrator did not set these restrictions on Internet Explorer and Control Panel, then check these entries.) Go ahead and click on Fix Checked, then post back with the requested information and a brand new HijackThis log. Also...you should definitely ditch ditch Spyware Terminator. It's really not worth having. You're much better off with AntiVir...or better yet, AVG.Hi well i will do that but before i ditch spyware terminator i want to say avg spyware isnt free so then that would mean i wouldnt have any spyware programs in 30 days. tell me what i think thanks for the help!

I used them at one time to do streaming media and i may want to use PROXIES latter on is. Will this disable the ABILITY to do it again later? probably not right?Actually, AVG is free. When the trial runs out, the program is still fully functional. It merely disables two features: active scanning and automatic updates. It's a good idea to have the active scanner, but if you use a firewall (which you do) and perform regular scans, it shouldn't be an issue. As for that proxy...you don't have to remove. These can sometimes be set without a user's knowledge, but because you set it yourself, it's not a concern. If you did remove it, it wouldn't prevent you from setting another.ok thanks sound good i did really like avg spyware. Although i didnt like the virus one which i had before avira. i will do the hijackthis now and report back.
