I have followed previous posts about removing the system integrity scan wizard, but could not find the files that were mentioned in the walkthrough. I have run AVG and Avast antivirus, but neither found anything. I have installed both CCleaner and HijackThis and have enclosed the log file from HijackThis.
Could somebody please tell me which files are the ones I need to remove.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
PS: I have a file in task manager called: xcvehczo.exe Is this anything to do with it??
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1
Scan saved at 17:10:49, on 20/04/2008
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6000.16640)
I will preface this by saying that we (along with other like-minded sites) are experiencing a shortage of spyware fighters. You may have a long wait before your log will be seen by anyone of them. With that in mind, and you wish to proceed, I will help you as far as I'm able.
First, run your HJT log through the Detective and follow any instructions you're given. You'll find the link to Detictive upper left on this page under Main Menu.
Second, you may havee some slow-down problems due to the number of programs you have running in the background (04 entries). Please do not change these through HJT as I do not know the HJT procedures. Instead, go to Start > Run > type in msconfig > OK > Startup tab > in the 'Startup Item' column you'll see boxes with check marks in them, these programs are running in the background and using up your RAM and slowing you down. In my opinion, you really only need your anti virus, firewall,and maybe one or two other programs running. Start at the top, do a search in google of that item and look up the process information on each item. It should tell you if the program is needed or not, however it goes a little deeper than that. For example, it will probably say that a graphic card (ATI etc) is needed, but in fact, unless you're a heavy game player and need to adjust your monitor settings all the time, it's not needed at all .. you'd uncheck the box. As I say, go through the list and figure out what you really need. Remember, when stopping these processes running, you are not uninstalling these programs, they can easily be activated by going through Start > All Programs or through a shortcut on your desktop. Also. at any time you can go back into msconfig and check the program again if you feel it needs to be running.
After unchecking the boxes, >OK and then reboot your PC. When rebooted, a configuration window will open, check the box 'do not show this message again' or words to this effect > OK and your done. From this point, you should see an improvement in boot up time as well as a general increase in PC speed.
If you have any questions in regards to some of the running background programs, give us the Startup Item (in list form) and we'll give you our advice.
