Simple poll...

I uninstalled BlackIce 2 days ago and I haven't locked up since. I'll just settle for using the Bit Defender firewall.

No processes. Here is where I am so far...

The reason I was getting the auto-protect error in the event viewer was because there was still a service for it on automatic and it was looking for...

Yup. I've deleted anything to do with Symantec or Norton from anywhere that I could find it.

I've checked & rechecked. If I missed something then its hiding pretty good.

I can't use the norton removal tool on my version (corporate)

1GB RAM


My PC locked up about 5 times yesterday, and now about 4-5 times again today. In the event viewer, this same error shows up at the time of every crash:

I'm running WinXP with a 250GB HD. I have the HD split into 2 partitions, (C: and L:). Well recently I realized that I have about 70GB of unallocated space, so I decided I was gonna add...

One of my computers has been freezing up a lot today. I checked the even log and it always happens after these five events:


Any ideas? This is on WinXP.

I've found a simpler application. I just wanted something simple and easy to use. I didn't really want to start tweaking my computer.

Thanks

So to solve this problem, I have to either wait for the next SP, or contact MS? Wow.

Thanks

Thanks but when I try to use the this I get an "Access is denied" error. I'm the admin on this computer.

Sorry I wasn't sure exactly what section to post this in.

I'm looking for an application that will allow me to schedule an application to start at a certain time. For example, if I wanted an MP3...

I ended up trying SoundForge and it worked out a little better. It didn't cut the background "buzzing" out completely, but its enough to where I can put it on CD and listen to it without getting...

There wasn't any forum here for this type of tech question, so I figured I'd put it here.

I got a couple of informational cassette tapes from a friend and they are really good, and I'd like to...

OK I've had this problem for quite a while. I frequent several websites in which I have to log into them again every time I re-visit, and every time I put in my username and password, it asks me if I...

I've done a little research on it, and decided its not harmful. Actually that link you gave me to liutilities says it has no spyware or security risk. I guess I'm just lazy and would rather just...

Thanks DMR, here is my new log:

OK that latest fix solved the problem. I find it odd that the ZServ process didn't appear until the 2nd HJT scan, and the hkmtauvn.exe file reappeared only once. Nevertheless... thanks for the help.

Strange, not sure why that hkmtauvn file reappeared after the first fix and deletion, but not the 2nd time. That ZServ may have killed the pop-ups. I'll report back soon with results.

Yeah, I'm usually able to keep my computers pretty clean. My wife however is very computer illiterate and very gullible.

I did all that you suggested with the following exceptions:

No, I searched several sites and found nothing about it. Doesn't even get a single hit on google.

My wife was browsing the other day and clicked on an ad about earning extra income from home. It took her to a site that led to another then next thing you know a dozen or so browsers keep popping...

I'm having the same problem. I bought this new computer and its the first time I've ever had this problem. Anytime I enter a password, IE asks me if I want Windows to remember it. Every time, I...

Dump AOL, that's your biggest problem.

I figured out the problem. I can't get to it through my router.

Yeah, I'll probably do that. Thanks guys.

Just started having this problem yesterday. I go to hotmail, and I enter my username and password... it just goes to a blank white screen and after a few minutes it errors out. I have 3 different...

On their website, it says that x.x.x.1-32 is reserved for static ip addressing. I assume it would only be a problem if someone else tried to use the same ip I did.

Well I got it to work. I just set my router up on a static IP. I'm probably wrong, but I'm assuming the router had a problem obtaining an IP automatically. Oh well, wasn't exactly what I was...

Yeah, I've reset it, rebooted the router, modem, pc... but can't get out. Thanks though.

I've got this router that I've used in the past and it worked fine. Recently I've tried to use it again, but something isn't right and I can't put my finger on it.

Its a D-Link DI-604. I'm...

Ouch.... how did she pull that off?

I have 512mb RAM.

Yeah, I had most of that stuff disabled in msconfig... I only enabled them all when you told me.

All of that is already as you said.

Do you mean the codes on the blue...

Thanks again. BTW, yesterday it BSOD'd on me about 4-5 times. Seems like its getting worse...
