I turn it on now and i get the "windows wasn't shut down properly last time, do you want to open in safe mode, last known config , or open windows normally screen" and its getting to the point that its takes several attempts to boot up.

Also my icons have disappeared in my notification area, icons like AVG, Sound, networking etc. Which i've googled and folk be sayin i got a virus in my BIOS - is this likely do you know Steve?

Kper · October 31, 2007

actually just to add to what i mentioned this morning, i just checked my task manager again and it looks like ive got about 40-45 processes running in the back (not counting the programs running currently), with a CPU usage of around 20%. is that normal? i could have sworn it used to be a shit load lower before.

Steve · October 31, 2007

I turn it on now and i get the "windows wasn't shut down properly last time, do you want to open in safe mode, last known config , or open windows normally screen" and its getting to the point that its takes several attempts to boot up.

Also my icons have disappeared in my notification area, icons like AVG, Sound, networking etc. Which i've googled and folk be sayin i got a virus in my BIOS - is this likely do you know Steve?

Cheers for the reply man.

Have a look in Event Viewer in the Administrative Tools section of Control Panel. See if there are any errors in there that relate to when you boot the computer, and if so, post a couple of them up. Sounds like something's fucking up and not loading at startup, but it's hard to diagnose over the web.

Lo - that log looks fine, although you can fix this one (make sure your browser is closed when you do): -

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {08C06D61-F1F3-4799-86F8-BE1A89362C85} - (no file)

It's quite a compact log, with not too many processes starting when you boot your computer. It's normal to have several instances of svchost.exe (I've got 7 running on my PC right now). Are you getting 45 running processes as soon as you boot up? If so, bring up Task Manager and grab a screen shot and post it up. You need to update Java too, which you can do by clicking HERE. Uninstall the version you have, then install the new one.

Kper · October 31, 2007

thanks for taking a look mate.

not sure if the 45 processes is on start up, will do a restart in a bit and double check.

can i get rid of the bonjour thing? i noticed that recently, and its some annoying iTunes related shit. I only use iTunes to transfer stuff to the iPod and i was sure i'd got rid of it

also can i get rid of this in Hijack? O1 - Hosts: 208.123.77.140 dev.gigacrate.com

i needed for some test on a mate's site a while back and kept forgetting about it.

Kper · October 31, 2007

yeah i get 41/42 processes right after start up, before i've launched anything. i've pmed you the jpg, not had time to up it anywhere yet. if you can have a gander thatd be wicked

You can fix that O1 hosts entry, that's not a problem.

The Bonjour service can be turned off with the TurnOffBonjour app available HERE. I'm not sure what impact it will have though, so use it at your discretion.

One thing you should definitely not do is try fixing that O10 entry for Bonjour. The Winsock stack is what makes your Internet connection function, and sometimes if you remove files from it, it kind of "breaks the chain" and you'll have no web access. There is a tool called LSPFix (available HERE) that's designed to remove files safely from the Winsock stack, but it should really only be used on infected files, because there is always a slight risk of damaging your system.

Unless there is an uninstaller in Add or Remove Programs, personally I would leave that Bonjour thing alone, just in case. You could go into Service in the Admin Tools section of Control Panel and try disabling the service to see what happens. At least it won't run then.

Kper · October 31, 2007

ta, will have a look. I think i tried to disable it before but it came back. doesnt seem to cause major issues, but its nagging me.

muzzell · February 2, 2008

hi steve

could you have a quick look at this.

Fix that one, then run CCleaner to clean up your hard drive. I assume you got a spyware infection that changed your desktop? That's left over from it.

You've got an infection called NetProject.

End the following tasks in Task Manager: -

sbmntr.exe

scit.exe

scm.exe

sbsm.exe

Run HijackThis and fix the following, making sure no browsers are running when you do it: -

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7C109800-A5D5-438F-9640-18D17E168B88} - C:\Program Files\NetProject\sbmdl.dll

Reboot into Safe Mode and delete the following folder: -

C:\Program Files\NetProject

You may need to enable the viewing of hidden/system files to see it.

If for some reason you can't delete the files, reboot your computer into Safe Mode with Command Prompt, log into an account that has admin rights, then type in the following exactly as they are written, pressing enter after each line: -

c:

cd\

cd program files\netproject

del *.*

cd..

rd netproject

You will have to say yes to deleting files after the "del *.*" line. If all goes to plan, the contents of the folder will be deleted, and the last command will delete the folder. Be very careful to type in the commands exactly as they are shown.

Whichever method you use to delete the files, once you've done it boot back into regular Windows and see if the problem is gone.

wicked thanks for te fast reply

how do i know if its worked?

i did what you said, but theres still an icon in the taskbar that says i have spyware and directs me to a website when i click on it or do any thing to it. should that be gone or does that mean its not worked?

i had trouble closing down the programmes you said at the beginning, they kept opening themselves after i closed em

Steve · April 18, 2008

Post another log man. It sounds like there's still some nasties lurking on your machine.
