i too thought it is ok to have Mcafee and AVG alone as there is no reduction in system speed as well.
Reduction in speed is the very least of problems caused by running two anti-virus programs at the same time on the same computer. Though I cannot imagine there has not been at least some loss in speed. Those two anti-virus programs, at the time of the scan had 13 processes running on the system. Remove one of those programs and that would, at the minimum, remove 6 processes running all the time on the computer, maybe more with the various svchosts.exe files probably running too in connection with one or the other or both. Your CPU usage must be enormous.
The problem comes with program conflicts, which can, and very often does, lessen protection rather than increase it. One program might see the other as a threat, and will create a conflict on the boot process...like who goes first?
Or it may just see the other antivirus as a competing application and try to disable one another, or one may find a virus with it's scan process, try to remove it and the other will stop the removal process because it only sees the fact that files on the computer are changing. So the infected object is not removed. You certainly can SCAN with more than one anti-virus program and quite often this is recommended, however, this generally is recommended using an online scanner, like the ESET scanner we recommend in our sticky for instance and your ONE installed anti-virus program.
I use utorrent only. Do u feel it is the one created the Bitdownload.
Yes I do absolutely. µTorrent is a BitTorrent
client for Windows. BitTorrent is a Peer-to-peer file sharing protocol. A
BitTorrent client is any program that implements the BitTorrent protocol. BitTorrent itself is not illegal—it is the use of it to copy copyrighted material that violates laws in some locations, which is of course a key issue. But one concern with P2P file sharing is, as you have found, the possibility of infection. There were three entries noted in your MBA-M connected with this BitTorrent download, including the one in the registry. One other concern people should look hard at is this; BitTorrent protocol does not offer its users anonymity. It is possible to obtain the IP addresses of all current, and possibly previous, participants in a swarm from the tracker. This may expose users with insecure systems to attacks. So participating in activity like this really opens a lot of doors many who use P2P are really not aware of.
The stuffs you explained about DNS server seem to be a little technical which Im not clear about it. Sorry for that. Can u kindly explain me in a little more detailed way.
This may be an odd analogy, but maybe this will make it clearer:
You must meet friends at a restaurant where you have never been with the address 123 Green St. You call a cab (a server). A cab (server) picks you up. You tell the driver you want to go to the restaurant at 123 Green St. What you don't know is this really isn't the cab (server) you called, but actually a cab (server) that works for another restaurant. The cab (server) takes you to a restaurant, you get out of the cab, don't look at the address because you naturally assume the cab (server) has taken you to the address you wanted. But actually the cab (server) has taken you to the restaurant the cab (server) works for at 132 Green St. You are totally unaware that you have been taken to the wrong restaurant until the cab leaves and your friends don't arrive.
The LOP infection does the same thing...the normal server for your computer has been hijacked by another server to take you to the website IT wants you to go to NOT the one that you want.
This is why I asked you where you were located. The O17 entries in your log can be a sign of a LOP infection, we KNOW you have one on the computer because of the findings of the MBA-M scan. Now it removed the offending files but I need to know your location in case the O17 entry does not point to your provider but to the hack server. This one indicates it is for BSNLNET in New Delhi. Is this your provider?
