The above said, you
were next in line, sooo....
There are no obvious "nasties" indicated in your log, so the crash may not be infection-related. If you want to do some more in-depth cleaning just to be sure, please do the following:
You will need to close/quit all web browser programs and disconnect from the Internet for much of the following, so you should print out these instructions or save them into a text file with Notepad.
1. Download and install the following utilities:
CCleaner -
www.ccleaner.com
ewido anti-malware (14 day free trial) -
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
- Open ewido. In the main screen, click "Update" and click "Start Update". After the update process completes, exit from Ewido.
- Open MS Antispyware beta. Make sure the "AntiSpyware Autoupdater" feature is enabled, and that it has downloaded the most current antispyware updates. Close the program after you've verified this.
- Open AVG and use its online update feature to make sure that it has the most current virus definitions installed. Again- don't scan yet, just close the program once it's updated.
2. Reboot into safe mode (you get to the safe mode boot option by hitting the F8 key as your computer is starting up).
Open CCleaner.
- Go to Options-> Advanced: Uncheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours"
- Go to Options>CustomFolders>Add Folder>Navigate to these folders (click on
bold file once and hit OK) :
* C:\Windows\
Temp
* C:\Windows\
Prefetch
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\
Temporary Internet Files\ (This will delete all your cached internet content including cookies.)
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\

* C:\Documents and Settings\<any other user's Profile>\Local Settings\
Temporary Internet Files
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other user's Profile>\Local Settings\
Temp
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\
Cookies
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\
Cookies
Hit
OK
- In left pane, scroll down to
"Advanced, Custom Folders", put a check in
Custom Folders
- Click on
Run Cleaner
It may take a while for the program to perform its cleaning, so be patient. Close the program when it has finished.
- Run AVG, MS Antispyware, and ewido; have the programs fix all malicious items they find.
When ewido finds the first malicious object on your system, it will ask you if it should clean it. When it asks this, put a checkmark in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections", then choose clean and click OK.
Save the log file that ewido will create after it finishes scanning; you'll be including that log in your next post here.
4. Empty your Recycle Bin, reboot normally, run HijackThis again, and post the new log. Also post the logs that ewido generated.
