TV show playing in background, HJ Log

Unread postby clguy14 » July 27th, 2009, 1:45 am

Periodically, audio will start playing in the background that sounds like some sort of TV show. It was a cooking show one time, something about finances and then something about a criminal trial later. They may be some sort of ads, but only a brief snippet plays before they stop. I had been having problems with a virus last week and ultimately reformated my computer, a Compaq Presario. It's been running smoothly since for the most part, except for the audio stuff.

I'm moving tomorrow so may not be able to reply for a day or two, but will try to check in tomorrow night.

Thanks for your help!

Here's the log:

We're sorry, but it is necessary to close your topic because you have replied to it prior to receiving a response from a helper.

Due to adding on to your topic with your second post it is highly unlikely that you would have received a response. Our helpers are looking for topics with zero responses. When you post replies to your own topic, it no longer has zero responses, and so it appears that you have received help when in fact, you have not.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Malware Removal forum and wait for assistance. Please do not run additional programs and/or post additional logs. Just your HijackThis log to start with is adequate. Your helper will ask for additional logs as needed. DO NOT reply to your own topic until you have received a response from a helper. Be patient. There are others who have been waiting longer than you, so do not expect an immediate reply.
