Suspected Malware Slowing PC

Unread postby tonksy » May 3rd, 2010, 7:06 pm

PC (with Vista 64 bit op) has been running very slowly the past week or so, and (perhaps not linked) keeps dropping internet connection. RAM monitor is showing high activity (thought to be much lower previously, and CPU little activity). Firefox is extremely slow to load pages, and often I have to go to task manager to close windows as it often does not respond when attempting to close windows or switch to another Firfox tab etc. Outlook stopped shutting down and remained in tray, again perhaps not linked (I fixed this by un checking all COM Add-Ins).

Re: Suspected Malware Slowing PC

Unread postby NonSuch » May 3rd, 2010, 9:20 pm

I see from your HJT log that you're using a 64 bit operating system.

Unfortunately, the tools we use to analyze and remove infections do not work properly on a 64 bit operating system, and their results cannot be relied upon. Because of this, it is almost impossible for us to correctly diagnose problems, and the fixes we might offer could potentially do as much damage to your computer as any infection you might have.

Due to the above stated reasons, we do not at this time offer support for 64 bit operating systems. We are sorry that we are currently unable to assist you.
