ok here are the results of hijackthis...
I have installed MSE on this computer and I am doing a full scan.
Good move.
However, you may want to hold off on the scan (if it still has a ways to go) until you do the following, since MSE will then have less to scan...
Task I:
Once again, please run HijackThis, and Scan
Check box for the following entries:

Select: Fix checked
Close out of HijackThis.
Task II:
Please go to the AdwCleaner Download
Save to the Desktop.
Close all open programs.
To run the program, right-click AdwCleaner.exe and select: Run as Administrator
Click on Delete and confirm the prompt.
After the program finishes, the computer is restarted.
A text file report opens after the restart.
Please attach the content of the C:\AdwCleaner[S1].txt in your reply.
Task III:
Also use the Junkware Removal Tool Download
Save to the Desktop.
Make sure you temporarily disable your AntiVirus, Firewall, and any other AntiSpyware applications.
These programs may interfere with the running of JRT.
Right-click JRT.exe and select: Run as Administrator
The tool opens and starts scanning the system. Please be patient as this can take a while...
When done, a report, JRT.txt is saved on the Desktop.
Please post the contents of JRT.txt in your reply.
Task IV:
Last, let’s check the system security status with the following:
Download Security Check:
http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/
Save to your Desktop.
Double-click SecurityCheck.exe
Follow the onscreen instructions inside the black box.
When done, a Notepad report opens automatically, called: checkup.txt
Please post the contents of the checkup.txt in your reply.
Note:
SecurityCheck may produce some false warning(s). Please do not take any corrective actions!
the jrt.txt file never created. but the summary still says that it has stability issues 10 programs, and the registry has 221 errors. Also I have to use another computer to download the software and put it on a thumbplug. Every time I try to download anything from the internet, I get a yellow pop up on the bottom of the screen that says, "couldn't download".
Did the above behavior just started happening, or has it been that way for a while?...have to use another computer to download the software and put it on a thumbplug. Every time I try to download anything from the internet, I get a yellow pop up on the bottom of the screen that says, "couldn't download".
Also, can you be more specific on what the pop-up says?
I believe this has been happening for a while. But just noticed this last night. Tried to download the Security Check.exe and it says: "Securitycheck.exe couldn't be downloaded. Retry Cancel View downloads." I even tried with any other download like a file from my email, and same thing.
GilV37,
You are probably at work now, so will see you later when you provide the following:
The downloading problem may occur if a certain Security option in Internet Options is checked.
So, let's see what you have...
In IE, go to the Menu bar (at the top), and select: Tools > Internet Options
In Internet Options prompt, select the Advanced tab
In the Settings area, scroll down to Security
Make sure the following is unchecked: Do not save encrypted pages to disk
File downloads in Internet Explorer require a cache, and, if IE is configured to not save encrypted pages to disk, a cache file is not created making the download fail.
If the above is already unchecked, right-click the IE icon, and select: Run as Administrator
Can you download as Administrator?
Can you download using another browser, like Chrome?
hey cottonball. I just realized that I don't see my post to the IE issue. I did what you have instructed, and still can't download anything. I even uploaded a photo. did you get it?
