ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? My original post was March 19th. It is now April 24th. I've received no replies and no helpful hints on my hijackthis log. What is this site for?



Goodbye forever...

Here's the problem. All of a sudden the IE tabs function stopped working. I've made sure and set options to allow tabs, but when I right click on a link, the only option available is to open in a...

Somebody told me this site was helpful...they were wrong. More than a month and still not a single reply. Thanks for nothing.

Hey,

It's been a few days and No relies yet. I am still having these problems and could really use some help.

Thanks

Hey all,

I am having a problem that I cannot seem to fix using standard virus scans and spyware/adware programs.

1) IE no longer allows me to use tabs. When I right click on a link it does...

I looked at the list and I didn't recognize gcasDtServ.exe and exec.exe. Everything else looks normal I think.

My computer is running really slow. The cpu usage is getting stuck at 100%. I am trying to listen to itunes while I work and it keeps skipping like a really scratched cd. I'm sure its because of...

I've tried my other spyware adware scanners/sweepers, but they all read my system clean. I'm pretty sure something is wrong, so I thought I'd try a hijackthis log check. Thanks in advance.

Any ideas on power management items that may be causing my problem? Also, does anyone have any ideas why registry mechanic fixes the problem, but the problem does not stay fixed. I have to run...

I didn't know spyware, etc. had been ruled out as a problem...sorry about posting in the wrong place. As requested, I downloaded the cpu-z program and ran it. What do you want to know from its...

Under control panel I click on the system Icon and the box that pops up shows me the processor speed and the mbs of RAM. When I startup my computer it reads 513mhz. After I run registry mechanic it...

Here's the latest update. I downloaded Registry mechanic, ran it, and it found something like 200+ problems. After I had it fix them, it seemed like my computer ran noticably faster and control...

A friend of mine mentioned it might be a BIOS problem and suggested I restore the default settings. I did so, and that is the only change to BIOS I have made. I really wouldn't know how or why to...

My computer is running extremely slow. It used to show 1.6something Ghz and now only clocks 513, and used to have 768 RAM but now only shows 704. I have posted a hijackthis log if it is anything...

I entered setup during boot up by pressing F2 as prompted. There were no options to set bios defaults. There was an option to restore all setup defaults, which I did. It made no change in the...

Does anybody have any other suggestions as to why my computer is running so slow (513 mhz instead of 1.6 ghz), other than hijackers, adware, or spyware. Everything seems to come up clean on scans...

I tried what you suggested, but I was not ever able to find an option to set BIOS to defaults. Can anyone think of anything non spyware or adware that might be cutting my processor speed in half...

Sorry, but I'm not sure how to do that. What would that do and can you guide me through it? At this point I'll try anything!

Removed everything you suggested and it looks like poon.exe is now gone, but computer still seems slow. Now showing 645 mhz instead of 513 but ram still at 192. Any other suggestions?

Logfile of...

Here is a new HijackThis log. I thought I got rid of poon.exe with a housecall online virus scan, but it seems to have reappeared. Also, I no longer use netzero for internet service and I see that...

I've done everything suggested. Housecall found poon.exe and got rid of that and all the deleted entries don't reappear on HijackThis scans. BUT the computer is still running slow and only at...

OK. Did everything you suggested above. Performance seems a little better, but processor is still only clocking at 513mhz and 192 ram instead of 1.6 and 256 it should be. Here is the Hijackthis...

I did all that you requested. Adaware only found one problem and Spybot found 5 DSO entries. While the computer was shutting down after using adaware, I got an error message that said something...

I am having a problem with my system running slow. I have run fully updated versions of spybot, adaware, norton, and avast, but none have picked up anything. My laptop has an athalon 2000+...

I am having a constant and repeating problem with IE explorer. When I startup my computer it works fine for up to two hours, then all of a sudden I get a cannot find server error message. If I...
