Multiple problems including freezing, scan & update failures

Unread postby Pete Nolan » September 4th, 2011, 9:08 am

Hi there, I have been struggling with a number of small problems for some time but
cannot seem to get to the bottom of them. I am a novice when it comes to computers!

My problems are: lap top freezes- hard shut down is my only remedy.
scan failures-i am running Avast and it keeps stopping (maybe during System 32 scan?)
update failures-Microsoft.NET framework updates, 5 in total keep failing
blue screen-occasionaly a blue screen appears, filled with txt, but it disappears and
restarts before ican read it.
I am also running Spybot SD, its scan works perfectly.

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Peter.

Hi and welcome to MalwareRemoval.com, sorry for any delay in answering your request for help, the forum is really busy.
My name is Diver79, and I will be helping you with your malware problems. I am currently in training at the Malware University. All of my instructions need to be checked and approved by a teacher, which may lead to a slight delay.

Before we start please note the following important guidelines.
  • The instructions being given are for YOUR computer only! Using these instructions on a different computer, can make it inoperable!
  • If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
  • Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans whilst I am helping you.
  • Please DO NOT install any other software (or hardware) during the cleaning process.
  • Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
  • Note: No Reply Within 3 Days Will Result In Your Topic Being Closed!
Note: If you haven't done so already, please ensure you have read the following article. ALL USERS OF THIS FORUM MUST READ THIS FIRST where the conditions for receiving help here are explained.
Please be aware that removing Malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.
Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.
How do I backup my files and folders in XP?
How to backup your data - Vista/Win7

Researching your logs now. Will post instructions soon.

Hi Pete,

In order to receive support at this forum you must remove utorrent. Downloading from p2p applications is a sure fire way to get infected.

Remove P2P Programs
  • I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Peer to Peer) File Sharing Programs on your computer.
    utorrent
  • Please read the Guidelines for P2P Programs where we explain why it's not a good idea to have them.
  • 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.
  • Click on the start button
  • In the Search Programs and Files text entry box please copy/paste appwiz.cpl Then click enter.
  • Press the "Remove" or "Change/Remove"...button to uninstall the programs listed above (in red) and any other P2P you have installed.
  • Take care when answering any questions posed by an uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into keeping the program.


Check Hard Disk For Errors
Open an Elevated Command Prompt
  • Press the Image button
  • In the Start Menu search box area type:
    cmd
  • Right click on cmd.exe (at top of the menu)... click on Run As Administrator.
    A black screen will open. You should see the elevated command prompt open to C:\Windows\System32
  • Copy the following command line (including the quotes):
    chkdsk c: |find /v "percent" >> "%userprofile%\desktop\checkhd.txt"
  • Go back to the open (black screen) command prompt.
  • Right click on the title bar at the top of the window where you see the text; "Administrator: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe". A menu will appear.
  • Select Edit... then choose Paste. You should see the chkdsk command string you copied, in the black window.
  • Press Enter ... Chkdsk will now start checking your hard drive. DO NOT CLOSE the Command Prompt window!
    The Chkdsk process can take a while, depending on the size of your hard drive.
    A file named checkhd.txt will appear on your desktop while Chkdsk is running.
  • When your hard drive light stops flashing constantly... Open the checkhd.txt file.
    You should see totals of bytes on the drive, bytes in files...etc. If you do not see these totals, Chkdsk is still running, close the file, wait a little longer.
  • Please post the contents of the checkhd.txt file, in your next reply.


OTL Scan
  • Download OTL to your desktop.
  • Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed to let it run uninterrupted.
  • When the window appears, underneath Output at the top change it to Minimal Output.
  • Under the Standard Registry box change it to All.
  • Check the boxes beside LOP Check and Purity Check.
  • Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
  • When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
  • Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post it with your next reply.

For your next reply
  • Confirmation of P2P removal
  • Checkhd log
  • OTL and Extras.txt logs

Hi there,
Yes, please close this topic. I cannot complete your last instructions as i am currently using utorrent to download and it
will take a number of days to finish.
I am terribly sorry for wasting your time.
Can i open a new topic with the same problems?
Thanks & apologies again.

Hi Pete,

Yes you can resubmit the post at a later date, provided you remove any p2p software from the computer

You should also be aware of the below policies before requesting help.

Peer to Peer software
Use of "cracked" programs

Due to continued use of P2P software, this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
