Hello and welcome to Malware Removal Forums

IMPORTANT

Whatever repairs we make, are for fixing your computer problems only and by no means should be used on another computer.
To make cleaning this machine easier:-
  • Continue to respond to this thread until I give you the All Clean!
  • Please DO NOT uninstall/install any programs unless asked to. It is more difficult when files/programs appear or disappear from the logs.
  • Please do not run any scans other than those requested and do not post any logs/reports unless specifically requested to do so.
  • Please follow all instructions in the order posted.
  • If you have any questions or do not understand instructions, please ask before continuing.
  • Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.


MRU P2P Policy
IMPORTANT I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Peer to Peer) File Sharing Programs on your computer.

BitTorrent DNA
BitTorrent

I'd like you to read the MRU policy for P2P Programs.
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the programs listed above (in red).
Run a new HJT scan when finished and post the log back here.


Note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.

P2P programs also open up access to the computer on which the program is installed. The computer's settings are more often than not changed in a manner that renders them insecure, and access to the computer is left open even when the program is not in use. Therefore, the system's security is compromised.

So be aware that it's not just what's downloaded with P2P programs that creates problems, just having the program installed is like leaving all the doors to your house unlocked.

Once the above is done Make an uninstall list using HijackThis
To access the Uninstall Manager you would do the following:
  • Start HijackThis
  • Click on the Config button
  • Click on the Misc Tools button
  • Click on the Open Uninstall Manager button.
  • Click on the Save list... button and specify where you would like to save this file. When you press Save button a notepad will open with the contents of that file. Save the file to your desktop.


Please post this log on your next reply.

Please reply with:-
  • Uninstall list
  • New HJT log

Hello!

Multiple Anti-virus Programs
You are operating your computer with multiple Anti-virus programs running in memory at once:
    AVAST
    AVG8


Anti-virus programs take up an enormous amount of your computer's resources when they are actively scanning your computer. Having two anti-virus programs running at the same time can cause your computer to run very slow, become unstable and even, in rare cases, crash. Please remove one of them NOW.


You appear to be missing critical Windows Security Updates. Please run the below diagnostic tool.

WGA Diagnostic Tool

Please follow this WGA troubleshooting procedure:
  • Download and install the WGA Diagnostic Tool:
    http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=56062
  • Click Run and Run again
  • Click Continue, click Copy
  • Next open Notepad, in the empty pane right click and select Paste

Please post (reply) with the results.

Hello!

Unfortunately the WGA Diagnostic Report shows that your version of Window XP has not passed validation and as per forum rules I will not be able to continue cleaning your machine.

The same problem appears to apply to your installation of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007.

"The policy" wrote:
It is this forum's policy to decline help to those who are either using illegal copies of software and/or are attempting to circumvent the software's restrictions in order to use said software without lawfully purchasing the product, in violation of the EULA (End User License Agreement).
To do otherwise would put us in the position of aiding and abetting an unlawful act.
The forum's policy on invalid copies of Windows or Other Software is here : http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic.php?t=550

As the information you have posted indicates that your system falls into this category, we are unable to offer assistance until it can be conclusively demonstrated that this situation has been rectified.


In light of this, this topic will be closed.
