Hello there!
I have recently been getting a lot of crashes on my PC. I was gone for a week and let my brother use it, didn't notice anything suspicious when I got back, but now it's crashing quite a bit, so I'm suspecting Malware/Virus of some kind. I've run AntiVir and Spybot S&D scans but nothing has shown up.
Here is my HJT log. I have used HJT before but it was quite some time ago and only for analysis, I didn't actually use it to disable anything that showed up. I'm unsure of what HJT actually does if you select stuff to disable, although some of the entries I can see in my own log look sort of strange to me like: O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5C255C8A-E604-49b4-9D64-90988571CECB} - (no file) for example.
Anyway thanks for looking at this for me!
