lovely. Yes, Comodo was quite the adventure when I tried it. I loved the control it had so much, especially the learning feature, but it drove my brothers crazy. Luckily, you seemed to anticipate...

Thank you all, very very much =]. Oh I do play safe, this was caused while I was away and not on my own computer, and I will be having a little chitchat with the culprit, though it's still unclear...

done =]. Post new logs?

Everything seems to be running fine :icon_smile:

ah, no worries. Take your time, I'm headed to sleep in a moment anyways. I'll check back tomorrow morning and see how things are going.

Thank you very much for your help, I was thoroughly...

Yay. Briefly scanning over the results I liked what I saw. I recognized a few of the startup values I had disabled a few days ago in the deleted section. Still I am no expert (or beginner for that...

ok it detected rookit activity and rebooted. Should I put it back into safe mode or should I let it start up completely. And is that it? or will it keep running. Or do I need to start it again? ...

its running in safe mode now, thank god, but I'm getting a message that says:

"Combo Fix has detected that this machine does not have the windows recovery console.

It would be in your BEST...

I found the entry and deleted and was getting ready to start the ComboFix when the computer froze. I restarted and it hung on the welcome screen twice before the third reboot got it back to the...

Ok, I got MBAM to install, but it was like pulling teeth. I renamed the file and was surprised that it even opened, because before, the process would register but I wouldn't even see a window. This...

Ok, so I have a computer mysteriously and quite interestingly infected with the Spyware.Ispynow . The usual "Windows Security Center" Pop-up shows, and when you try to close it, IE7 comes up but...

sorry... didn't mean to post here:-O

eff. ok so you know what I hate. I was doing this stupid college kid and the computer in question a favor by cleaning what I did. And so when I arrived monday to run that scan and post the new...

sure, I'll have to wait until monday to do so. Does it matter the user profile I run from?

ok so in addition to the posted Malwarebytes Log above, I have another that I ran today. I noticed looking through the logs that most of the problems were showing on the other user profile that I...

fair enough =]. Here is the Log file as requested. Is the logfile for symantec or the housecall necessary as well?


...

quite certainly, though I'll have to wait til tomorrow around noon-ish. Noon-ish central time if I'm feeling ridiculously specific =p. But I shall, and thank you for you time.

Hi, I've been trying to fix a pretty badly infected computer over the past few days, and I've run out of luck. This computer had no security of any kind, whether it be anti-virus or spyware, etc....

I have a bit of a problem here that may involve several languages, but i think the problem (and hopefully the solution) lies in the ASP.NET portion. Forgive me if I have posted in the wrong forum.
...

clever =p
I like it.
I managed a semi-workaround using some extra CSS, but I think I may switch over. I think the problem was that the content above the footer had no actual size, so I gave it a...

Hi, I'm currently developing a master page for an ASP.NET web site. I would like the page to have a footer that "sticks" to the bottom of the page, but can move downward if the content above it gets...

oh i know... i specifically set up a wiping disk because i want all of the data, no matter where it is on the disk, to be as unrecoverable as possible and I am required to make the data as...

VernonDozier is correct as to why your program won't compile.

This however, is not why I am commenting, as it has already been stated. I am here to state that once you do said corrections, you...

oh i know =]
like i said, i've done reinstalls before, just never full wipes
this time... a full wipe is kind of more like a requirement.

thank you though for you patience, help, and willingness...

ok, thought of something

i was considering multiple partitions, but i'm not really sure if i need them/have the space.

right now i have two partitions, one FAT that's about 32MB and then my...

I'll try to make this short and concise:

Two computers, \\DESKTOP and \\LAPTOP

both in the same configured workgroup, running off a NETGEAR Router configured with WEP.

The Desktop runs...

sweet
i that's all i was looking for

thanks very much

i'll post if i run into anything else along the way

peace

i recently obtained a hard drive with... lets just say a lot of extraneous information from someone else that i don't ever want. A friend of mine showed me a program to wipe the entire disk with so...

hi, i'm currently working on a school project, and i've been given some information that could possibly be beneficial to my cause if i could understand it. Besides, i'm one of those people who just...

thank god

ok so i finally got the disk i needed and ran the SFC and thank god, it worked!

No more bad image errors and all system functions are back online, i just had to replace the start...

yeah, that's what i've been trying to do only i wasn't quite sure what disk my friend's computer needed. It's really odd, cuz i'm almost positive they have XP home edition (not sure how to check...

oh GOD, now i'm confused to death.
I've been reading forums on kaspersky, because i was wondering why when i pulled explorer.exe out of backup, it was no longer infected.

Turns out that there was...

alright alright, i had the time to look up the error messages.

the system tools that won't work are:

Security Center
Backup
Character Map
System Information
System Restore

ok so i'm working on a friends computer running XP.
their explorer.exe file was infected by a worm and they accidentally deleted it instead of cleaning it.
luckily the file was in back-up, so they...

never mind stupid question =p

ok well i got a player up and running, but i need to know if there is a way to link the xml file with a web address, because as of right now, i cannot upload either to my server, and thus, the xml...

ok i've done everything you've said and i'm thinking i'm kinda getting the hang of it. i guess this would be a good way to start learning my next programming language, so thanks everyone for all...

good, cuz i use 7zip for everything

okay, so let's pretend (this would be on source forge) that the "architecture" is platform-independent and the "source form" is .bz2. all i really know is that i can unzip that =p.

sorry if this...
