Extremely Slow Computer - Please help, log included

[CathyOne]

Hi
Please help, this is my Mum's computer, a few months ago (maybe longer) it was fine, and now it's unbearably slow, and I don't know what she's done. It could be filled with viruses as she tends to just click around. I have put a few suggested programs on that I had recommended from a helper on this site, but my Mum doesn't update them or scan much... My HiJack This! log is below...

Thank you so much for reading.

[Dakeyras]

Please note that all instructions given are customised for this computer only, the tools used may cause damage if used on a computer with different infections.

If you think you have similar problems, please post a log in the HJT forum and wait for help.

Hi CathyOne and welcome to Malware Removal

I'm Dakeyras and I am going to try to assist you with your problem. Please take note of the below:

• I will start working on your Malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
• The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine!.
• The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
• If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
• Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
• Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
• It may prove beneficial if you print of the following instructions or save them to notepad as I post them.
• 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.

Multiple Anti-Virus Applications:

Presently installed on your Mothers computer are the following:

Avira AntiVir
eScan Anti-Virus

This is not safe as a system conflict will occur and it actually lessens online protection. I propose you uninstall one of them, preferably eScan Anti-Virus unless it is the paid for version. If this is the case then remove Avira AntiVir instead.

Now please go to Start >> Control Panel >> Add/Remove Programs and remove the following (if present):

eScan Anti-Virus
MyThings Toolbar <-- and anything else named My Things, this is Adware related.
ALOT Toolbar <--As Above.

Note: Take extra care in answering questions posed by any Uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into keeping the program.

Next:

Lets carry out a more in-depth scan of your Mother's computer first before anymore proactive measures OK as follows:

• Please download Random's System Information Tool by random/random from here and save it to your desktop.

Please make sure that RSIT.exe is on the your Desktop before running the application.

• Double click on RSIT.exe to run RSIT.
• Click Continue at the disclaimer screen.
• Once it has finished, two logs will open:
  
  • log.txt will be opened maximized.
  • info.txt will be opened minimized.
• Please post the contents of both log.txt and info.txt.

When completed the above, please post back the following:

• Any problems encountered and or further symptoms?
• Both RSIT logs. <-- Post them individually please.
