smadams9602,
That Blacklight log is good.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Remove Programs Using Control Panel
From Start, Settings, Control Panel or Start, Control Panel, click Add/Remove Programs.
Highlight each Entry, as follows, one by one, if it exists, and choose Remove :

The Shield Deluxe 2008

Take extra care in answering questions posed by any Uninstaller. Some questions may be worded to deceive you into Keeping the program.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Please download the Registry Search Tool from here (scroll down-there are also other tools on the page):
http://www.billsway.com/vbspage/
Unzip it to a convenient location such as your Desktop.
Make sure that your Antivirus / OS allows the use of the .vbs scripts. If prompted, make sure to allow the script.
Double click regsearch.vbs
Copy / Paste the following line into the Search Box:

avp.exe

then hit Ok
It may take a while to run.
It will tell you when it's done and offer to have you look at the file.
Say Yes, and when it opens copy/paste the content in your reply.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Now to Locate the file:
Press Start->Run, copy/paste the following command into the box and press OK:
cmd /c dir C:\*.* /L /A /B /S|Find "avp.exe" >> "%userprofile%\desktop\look.txt"

A file called look.txt should appear on your Desktop. Please post the contents of this file.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Download just one of these free anti-virus program installers and save it to your desktop. Don't Run the Installer yet.
Turn off Internet Explorer and DON'T DO ANY SURFING UNTIL I SEE The Registry search log and look.txt

I am not sure if I am doing something wrong! After I put the code in the box and it asks me if I am sure that i want to excute and I click the yes button and then a error box appears. The error says Invalid registry syntax in command. "HKEY_Users\Software\Microsoft\Windows Current Version\Explorer File Exts\.txt\Open With List|a"
Onlyregistry keys under the HKEY_Local Machine hive are accesible to this program.
Skipping Line (Registry valued deletion mode).

This is what the error is telling me. Not really sure what is wrong.

That was my fault . Avenger starts before those registry entries are even built. Do it this way.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Copy/Paste/Run a Registry Edit
Copy/paste the following quote box into a new notepad document:
Code: Select all
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-839632358-3558580749-2944874349-1009\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.txt\OpenWithList]

"C:\\Program Files\\PCSecurityShield\\The Shield Deluxe 2008\\avp.exe"=-


Make sure there are NO blank lines before REGEDIT4
Make sure there IS one blank line at the end of the file.

Save it as File Type All Files (not as a Text document, or it won't work).
Save it to your Desktop as fixme.reg
Double click fixme.reg on your Desktop, and merge it into the registry when asked.

Open Notepad, paste the following code box contents into the text.
Code: Select all
sc stop AVP
sc config AVP start= disabled
sc delete AVP


Use Notepad's File, Save As to save it to your desktop as File type All Files (not as text file or it won't work), and file name FixSvc.bat
Exit Notepad and double click on FixSvc.bat
A Command window will flash on and off.

REBOOT your machine. Sign in to your usual account.

Using HJT, check the following O23 line and choose Fix Checked.
O23 - Service: The Shield Deluxe 2008 (AVP) - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\PCSecurityShield\The Shield Deluxe 2008\avp.exe" -r (file missing)
-----------------------------------------------------------
I would remove WildTangent and Gaming squared using Control Panel, Add/Remove programs, but that is up to you.
I don't see any additional malware on your system. You should be good to go.
Heads up using P2P and Gaming apps!

askey 127,

I have a few questions/problems. When I reboot my system I am still getting a pop-up from avast saying that there is incompatible software running. It says that standard shield is running and it asks me to click on the ok button to disable the shield deluxe program. I do click on ok but i still think that shield deluxe program is still installed. When I got to programs the shield deluxe 2008 is still on there. The other problem that i am having is i removed the gaming squared program that you reccommended that i remove but when i try to remove the wild tangent program my computer freezes. When i click the change/remove button nothing else happens after that and i can not click on anything else on that screen. I have to click on the icon on the bottom and close the screen out. I am not sure what is going on.

askey 127,

I forgot one other problem that i am having! When i got to website that have mutiple pages and click on the arrow to go to the next pages it will not go to the next page, or when i try to click on a link sometimes it is not reading to go to next link. I noticed at the bottom of the page in the left, where it shows if something is downloading or done it usually says something to do with Javascript. Sorry to send you some many different questions and problems at once!
