Links not working in web sites using Internet Explorer 6.0

[amdm55]

My main problem is:- I used to be able to click on any links within any web site. Not any more.

I:sad: have Internet Explorer Version 6.0 & I have Windows XP installed, and last week I downloaded the Windows Service Pack 1 to try and fix this problem
as a friend said it might do the trick. It hasn't.

E.G. On http://control.fasthosts.co.uk/ , I am able to click on the first 4 links without any problem. On the 5th link, when I click on 'Click Here' link - nothing happens. The screen just freezes for 1 to 2 mins and it blinks once and then stays on the same page. There is no error message from Internet Explorer.
If I get into Task Manager to kill the Application Process, I see a message:- Internet Explorer Not Responding.

The same happens on another web site:- Racexpert.com , here I can click on the link and go on to the next page okay but on that 2nd page when I click any of the 7 or 8 links, the screen just freezes for 1 to 2 mins and it blinks once and then stays on the same page. This happens on other web sites.

It all used to work okay prior to February 13th 2004. Something happened . I can't remember installing or uninstalling any software that could have caused it. Everything else works okay on the computer except some sites are very slow - e.g. raceXpert.com . Now this site in particular is very very slow to even get its home page up.
Again, when Task Manager is called upon, I can see the CPU has shot to 100% usage causing everything to slow down to a snail's pace.

I have Norton AntiVirus installed - 2003 version.
Norton Utilities Version 7.00.22
I also have Norton Personal Firewall installed.

I thought it might have been Ad Blocking on Norton Personal Firewall. I have dis-abled it but the problem still exists. It used to work okay without me having to disbale anything in the Firewall at all.

I have just recently Un-installed IE and re-installed Int. Explorer but still no joy.
I then got a trial version of Registry mechanic , ran it and it found the following problems:-

4 problems in Custom Controls
1 problem in Shared Programs
1 problem in Add/Remove Programs
1 problem in Software Locations

Because Reg. mechanic is a trial version it won't fix the problems.

Please try and help me fix this problem - it is causing me a major holdup.
I have been to Microsoft who tell me that if I did not purchase this PC from them - they cannot help me .
What a load of rubbish Microsoft are. It's their OS and virtually all their software which is causing the problem but they point me to Hardware suppliers Fujitsu Siemens.

I have been to Fujitsu Siemens - was on their Tech helpline for 20 mins. - at 60p a mintue = 12-00
in cost and they were still unable to fix the problem. I had to stop at that point because I could not stay on endlessly incurring unknown costs.

Since, this problem has started, I now can't open the search option from the Start menu if I have several windows open - about 3 or more.
I'm not sure why this has recently started happening. It works fine if there
is no other window open. But my main objective right now is to get the above main 'Links' not working problem fixed.

I would be very, very grateful to you in you can help me resolve this problem.

Many Thanks in advance....

best regards...
Andy

No guarentees, as it could be a couple things, but please do these:

Download the latest version of Ad-Aware at http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/
After installing AAW, and before running the program, FIRST update the reference file following these instructions.
http://www.lavahelp.com/howto/updref/index.html
Now do the following:
- Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Scanning Engine:
check: "Unload recognized processes during scanning."
- Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Cleaning Engine:
Check: "Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."
Press "Scan Now"
- Check option "Use Custom scanning options"
- Check option "Activate In-Depth Scan"
- Press "Select drives\folders to scan"
- Select the active partition which is usually C:
Now press "Next" to let Ad-aware scan your drives...
It will find a number of "bad" files and registry keys.
Right-click in that pane and choose "select all"
Now press "Next" again.
It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.
Finally, close Ad-Aware, and reboot.

Then:
Download 'Hijack This!'. http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-328.html
Unzip (extract) it to a folder of its own. Then Doubleclick HijackThis.exe (in the new folder), and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, then Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents here. for hijackthis,most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.

OKay I'm on the case....have already downloaded Ad-Ware 6 and doing as recommended. Thanks a lot - I really appreciate your help.
Will get back soon.

The below is what was found by HijackThis.

Actually, you only posted half the information--you left out the Registry-entries list.

What you posted looks almost clean--except for the RunDLL32 entry, which usually indicates a problem. Please post the rest.

I should point out that there is a security issue with WinZip 8.1 and below, so update to v9.0, or use 7-Zip instead.

[amdm55]

Hi,
Just got back.
..............I din't see any Registry-entries list at the time.
I've just found it.....I think these are the ones...? are they...?

** Also where can I get the Win Zip 9.0 ? or Win-Zip 7.0 ?

** What can I do with RunDLL32 entry ?

** Also, Please can you advise....Windows regularly send me automatic Updates
and there is one lot waiting right now for me to install.
Do I go ahead and install these , especially after my links are working now....?
( Don't really want to 'fix it if it ain't broke' ....now !!! )

Now for the result of what I have done so far.
1- All the Links that were not working previously have amazingly started working.
2- There were 3 main sites that were very important to my work and they were
NOT linking and they either used to freeze and they were extremely slow.
3- Now - All the the 3 main sites are working great and with lightning fast speed.

I will of course try out other websites in due course but I now have to face the wrath of my wife....!
She has just noticed that 3 games are not working :-
Spider Solitaire, Solitaire & Freecell.
I have no idea why or how Ad Ware or even HijackThis has got rid of them.
Any idea if they can be re-stored ?
I am not sure if they were causing the problem.
I have never played them - I'm only on my PC for serious work.

Can I just say a Very Big Thank You to the 2 Techies - Guru Techie & The Moderator
for their help which has definitely solved this.
I've been to Fujitsu,
I've been to Microsoft,
I've been to Symantec,
I've been to my ISP,
I've been to several others......
and none of them could help me.....
then you two came along......and it's all working
You've definitely made my day and I salute you both.

Thanks - I will await the answers to the few questions I have posed.

best regards...
Andy

Run hijackthis again, save the scan to txt file when finished then open the txt file, copy the entire contents & paste that info here.

Hi ,

Thanks for that...
I have done exactly as advised.
Just one thing not too sure about :-
I cannot find :- C:\PROGRA~1\GAMERI~1
All I can find is GameRival on the 'C' Drive under Program Files.
Do you want me to delete this...?
If I do delete this , does that mean that no games can be played on this PC ?
My Wife & kids are the ones who normally play the games mentioned in my last reply.
Anyway, after re-boot here is the new fresh log:-

Delete the gamerival folder. I didn't know the full name as it didn't show in the log.
This has nothing to do with solitaire etc. If you go to Add/Remove programs choose windows components & reinstall those games that way. Hopefully you have your CD if needed.
HJT should not have damaged them in any way, nor the other removal tools. Never heard of it happening B4.

It's a good idea also once you are clean to create a new restore point on your system, then do your M$ update.

Hi there.....:lol:
Have now done the above - deleted GameRival. Have set a meaningful Restore point and kept it in a safe place. Re-booted and installed the latest Windows updates okay.
Just 3 questions for you:-
1- Do I run Ad Ware 6.0 regularly , and if so, how often ?
2- What about HijackThis , regular , if so, how often ?
3- Can I get rid of a Registry mechanic softawre now from my PC ?

Lastly, I will await your answers on the above before closing this off for good.
I want to say Thank You big time , you have helped me tremendously.

best regards...
Andy:p

I run Adaware at least once a week, first checking for updates. Spybot is another excellent program that works hand in hand with Adaware. You can get it here Update it B4 scanning. Go into settings & have it check for Beta releases also & download if available.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it.
HijackThis is only for those times when your in trouble & Adaware & spybot don't fix it.
Registry mechanic I know nothing about & so cannot comment.

Anyway, I am glad to have been able to help.

Moved to the (brand spankin' new) Security forum, as that is where we're now concentrating security/spyware/adware/etc.-related threads.

Hi guys,
I have learnt a lot and have taken heed of your advice above.
Hope I will never get this problem again, and if I do , I will try
and solve it myself first.
Thanks a million........you've all been great.
best regards...
Andy :confused:

[Icarus_Night]

I have a similar problem that started this thread. (Not quite as severe!) Thanks to all of you working so hard, I think I can help myself fix this thing.

[larbec]

Can someone help me on the same subject. I tried the same thing and below is what I get after running the hijackthis: What do I need to do next??

larbec, if ya could, simply start a new post. Although the topics may seem similar, they're generally more different then they appear.

So, if ya could start a new topic, it'd be great.:D

Thanks.
