4. Go ahead and post a HijackThis log for us to review; it might yield some clues.


TOO LATE!!!!! :cry:
I had placed the folder in my wastebakset and waited for a reply from here. I got one, but it couldn't tell me anything about the item in question, so. . .since the machine seemed to be working better, I deleted the thing :o but I still have problems. My machine is terribly low on memory, so I know that something's churning in the background, and interestingly, I can't go on safe mode. I tried this morning and the computer acted as if I had performed an improper shutdown. So, exhausted, I just went to Panda's activescan and tried that. I couldn't do it so I bought their little antispyware software because I run on Win ME and I cannot get the new things you suggest, only AboutBuster. Thanks for trying to help me. I don't post a HijackThis log because since Adaware can't see it, and Norton can't see it, and Shredder is no longer picking up on it, I think I have cut off part of it and that's why it doesn't show up and I might be wasting your time by posting a log.
I always appreciate very much the help I get here.
I hope you have a good 2006.
God bless!
