Solved MSE and Internet Connection take over 1 minute to activate on boot

[Jamon]

I have Malwarebytes and MSE installed, I can't see any viruses or anything during scans, and everything seems to run fine with the computer with one exception.

When windows starts, the internet connection shows itself as busy, like it is trying to refresh, and MSE shows NOT PROTECTED. This continues for over 1 minute, possibly close to 2 minutes. Then they activate and everything is fine.

I have looked through my task manager, and I didn't notice anything odd, but this issue has me perplexed.

I am connecting directly to my router, this is a recent windows install (I did everything right).

Another thing I will mention, Intel RSTe also takes a little while to activate. Seems like it is not active for about 2 minutes, then it suddenly activates.

I searched, but everything I found had to do with performance issues, and that is obviously not my issue. The delay is the only thing that is burdening me, and I just want to verify that my computer is not compromised in any way.

Also, I have lurked for a long time here, this is an amazing forum with amazing people, thanks so much for all the help you've given me over the years.

 

[Pauly]

Do you have homegroup running i believe i have seen similar threads where this can cause slow network starts on boot although i dont think it would affect MSE ?

 

[Jamon]

I did, but I disabled it, and I'm getting the same issue. Yes, MSE and internet come active at the same time.

 

[Jamon]

Hrm, some very odd things...

I ran Hijack this 2.04, and got some odd errors. I couldn't copy the log file because it says it could not find an internet connection. Also, I got an error on the initial scan due to something about not being able to write to the hosts file. Here are the screenshots of the services and the error...

[Jamon]

Just curious if anyone has any info on this, I still can't find anything. Also not sure why Hijack-this is not working properly

 

[Jamon]

Still can't seem to find an answer to this. Driving me batty...

 

[Jamon]

Tried disabling Asus software on the startup, not connected to homegroup, I cannot see any malicious processes in the task manager when this problem is happening. Still not sure why it is taking so long to load.

I sit here for about a minute or more waiting to use the internet while it is loading and MSE is inactive. I cannot find any solution online. Everything seems to run normal with the machine.

 

[DavidE]

You could try booting in Safe Mode with Networking to see if the Internet connects faster.

 

[Jamon]

David,

This works, the internet comes up right away in safe mode. Did a scan while in safe mode, still no virii detection of any sort. The only other thing I think is worth mentioning is that when I'm in regular mode, during the time that MSE and the internet is stalled, when I go to task manager and click on the administrative 'show processes from all users' it also stalls until the internet and MSE become active. At that point, it shows many more processes than it shows by default, and I also noticed about 3 COM SURROGATE processes that terminated almost instantaneously as the window popped up to show all processes.

I'm thinking that I probably don't have a virus, but when I installed windows, I used a program called SMART32 to handle terminating services that I don't need in order to make the OS run quicker. I only used the light/safe modification option, but I'm wondering if this has something to do with it. If you would like me to try anything else, please let me know.

 

[DavidE]

Disabling default services in Windows 7 is not recommended and that may be what is causing your issues.
Can you undo the changes you made with SMART32?

That's the first thing I would try.

 

[Jamon]

The name is actually Smartv2.

This has actually been a proven utility to disable services via the registry for windows 7, but I will go back to default services to see if this changes anything. If nothing else, I know exactly what was changed and how to restore it, so this shouldn't be a big deal, but we'll see.

 

[Jamon]

Yea, I enabled the services that were disabled and it did nothing to fix the problem. Also, I now remember that this problem was occurring before I made changes to the services for tweaking purposes.

Is there some sort of diagnostics we can run to see all the processes occurring from boot until the internet/MSE activates? Just weird how everything else is fine, except for this delay.

The reason I didn't pay more attention to this when I first installed was because I was using the computer in a different room, so I was actually connecting this desktop via ethernet to my laptop's wireless card, so I just assumed that's what the delay was for. But now that I have it hard-wired to the router, I'm getting the same issue.

 

[DavidE]

Here is a tutorial by Brink for troubleshooting startup issues.

[Jacee]

Let's see if VEW shows anything ... download VEW by Vino Rosso http://images.malwareremoval.com/vino/VEW.exe
and save it to your desktop
Double click it to start it Note: If running Windows Vista or Windows 7 you will need to right click the file and select Run as administrator and click Continue or Allow at the User Account Control Prompt.
Click the check boxes next to Application and System located under Select log to query on the upper left
Under Select type to list on the right click the boxes next to Error and Warning Note: If running Windows Vista or Windows 7 also click the box next to Critical (not XP).
Under Number or date of events select Number of events and type 20 in the box next to 1 to 20 and click Run
Once it finishes it will display a log file in notepad
Please copy and paste its entire contents into your next reply

I did disable indexing when configuring win7, not sure if that's where these errors are coming from or not.

 

[Jamon]

Hrm, ok I disabled all the non-MS services, and just enabled MSE and MBAM, and it works fine. I guess I'll have to hunt and pick and see which service is jacking up my system, unless you guys can tell by that log I posted, but that was all greek to me.

Also, if you happen to see any other issue that may be problematic from that log, please let me know.

Well, at least now I don't have to wait on internet anymore. I have a feeling it was one of the ASUS services, but I'll check it out. Thanks for the help so far guys

Just as an 'off chance' this batch file might help .... let's flush the DNS cache and restore MS's Hosts file:

Copy and paste these lines in Note pad.

@Echo on
pushd\windows\system32\drivers\etc
attrib -h -s -r hosts
echo 127.0.0.1 localhost>HOSTS
attrib +r +h +s hosts
popd
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset all
netsh int ip reset all
shutdown -r -t 1
del %0

Save as flush.bat to your desktop.
Double click on the flush.bat file to run it.Vista and Windows 7... right click the .bat file and choose to run as Administrator. Your computer will reboot itself.

Now, let us know if your computer is working properly without "hunting and picking".

I did some more searching, as it turns out, it is indeed the ASUS AI software that caused the problem. I just disabled it, and now I'm not having any issues. ASUS sucks! Wish I would have gone with the EVGA SR-2 dual xenon setup, but oh well.

Thanks for the help and showing me a couple of those tricks.

I would also appreciate it if I could figure out how to remove the Asus software from my computer. Revo uninstaller and MS uninstaller can't see the software, but it is still shown as service options. Not sure how to cleanly purge it.
