Re: Not-A-Virus.Monitor.Win32.Ardamax.ae

Hi.

As i have already mentioned above, my system seems to boot very slow and operations also little slow. But it was too good a few months before. I ran that ATF cleaner too. Its removing the cache but Im did not see any considerable change. My system is totally free from viruses, spywares and all. I have installed AVG and Mcafee and daily they are updated and no virus has been detected. But still my system is slow. Can you suggest me something. Please. !!

Try defragmenting your drive and see how that goes.

Re: Not-A-Virus.Monitor.Win32.Ardamax.ae

I just made a quick look in google search about the defragmentation. But looks like it will take very long time to get it done !!! My hard disk capacity is 160GB. How long it will take. ? Around 80% of my disk is full. So I think it is recommended to do defragmentation. But please help me to do tat without causing any loss of file. Since i could not back such large amount of data up.

Go to Start | All Programs | Accessories | System Tools and click on Disk Defragmenter and when it comes up, select the Defragment now option.
It is a perfectly safe operation. You would be best served to start it before retiring for the night just in case it takes a long time.

Re: Not-A-Virus.Monitor.Win32.Ardamax.ae

Hi I did Defragmentation. It went on well without any problem. Thanks. But Sorry to say, still I didnt notice any considerable improvement in the performance of my system. Even now some of my windows applications take time to open (like Internet Explorer, MS Office applns and so on). Is there anything else to do for a better performance.. Please help me !!

Re: Not-A-Virus.Monitor.Win32.Ardamax.ae

Hello Sir,

I am back after a long time.. Recently I have a problem. When I do google search, I am not able to go access the search results. I am directed to some link related to "Antivirus 2009" when i click the search result. The link is
http://main-scanner.com/2009/9/_freescan.php?aid=880501

Its saying that my system is infected with sever spyware and asking me to install Antivirus 2009 software to remove those. I made a thorough scan using AVG and Mcafee. Results are clear.

Here I have attached the screen shot showing what I got after clicking on the search result link. Please help me to get rid of this.

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (http://www.majorgeeks.com/Malwarebyt...are_d5756.html) to your desktop.

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* At the end, be sure to checkmark the Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform full scan, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad.
* Post the log back here.

Make sure that you restart the computer.

The log can also be found here:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt

Post new HJT log.
