Hi all! Hijackthis log review please!

[peku006]

Hi xDDd120

Why ESET Smart Security Suite 4.0.424.0 doesn't detect that? Everytime I run a scan, it goes with 0 detected threads.

there is no security program which is able to identify all the different types of threats

Could this virus damage my anti-virus protection or create a hole in it

no it is not possible......

If I want to fix some registry entries (I currently have Registry Booster 2) what program would you use? Should I un-install Registry Booster 2 to install a better one?
Is CCleaner any good? Or would you use another program similar to CCleaner but better?

I don't personally recommend the use of ANY registry cleaners. Here is an excerpt from a discussion on regcleaners

Most reg cleaners aren't bad as such, but they aren't perfect and even the best have been known to cause problems. The point we are trying to make is that the risk of using one far outweighs any benefit. If it does work perfectly you will not see any difference. If it doesn't work properly you may end up with an expensive doorstop.

Thank you and have a nice day!

Hi xDDd120

What defrag software would you use and why?

I use the JkDefrag, because it's free and very effective program

Congratulations, your log looks clean!

To remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created do the following:
Delete Flash_Disinfector.exe from your desktop

• Double-click OTMoveIt3.exe.
• Click the CleanUp! button.
• Select Yes when the "Begin cleanup Process?" prompt appears.
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes, if not delete it by yourself.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Disable and Enable System Restore-WINDOWS XP
This is a good time :

Turn off System Restore

• On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
• Click Properties.
• Click the System Restore tab.
• Check Turn off System Restore.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.
• Reboot.

Turn ON System Restore

• On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
• Click Properties.
• Click the System Restore tab.
• UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
• Click Apply, and then click OK.

This will remove all restore points except the new one you just created.

Here are some free programs I recommend that could help you improve your computer's security.

Spybot Search and Destroy
Download it from here. Just choose a mirror and off you go.
Find here the tutorial on how to use Spybot properly here

Install SpyWare Blaster
Download it from here
Find here the tutorial on how to use Spyware Blaster here

Install WinPatrol
Download it from here
Here you can find information about how WinPatrol works here

Install FireTrust SiteHound

Install MVPS Hosts File from here
The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.
Find Tutorial here : http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm

Update your Antivirus programs and other security products regularly to avoid new threats that could infect your system.
You can use one of these sites to check if any updates are needed for your pc.
Secunia Software Inspector
F-secure Health Check

Visit Microsoft often to get the latest updates for your computer.
