Looks like these 5: check the boxes next to them, select fix checked, then reboot and post a new log. You may want to wait for someone else to confirm this before you do it.

Also- two things:

1. You are running an older version of HijackThis; please download and run the latest version (1.98.2) and post the new log it generates.

2. You are running HJT while Internet Explorer is still running. Close all instances of any browser programs before running HijackThis; HJT cannot perform all of its fixes while browsers are running.

[dlh6213]

One more thing before you post a new log. Right now you are running HJT from your desktop, it should be in a folder so it can safely save backups. A folder on your desktop will work, like C:\Documents and Settings\The Big G.THEBIGG\Desktop\HJT\HijackThis.exe (instead of C:\Documents and Settings\The Big G.THEBIGG\Desktop\HijackThis.exe)

I applogize, i wasn't aware a new version came out at all yet. Here is the new log, from the newer version of hijackthis.

I haven't changed anything yet, since the newer version may have took in something new that i should change. Thank you for what every help you may be able to provide.

Close all browser windows, scan with HJT, and have it fix the following entries:

That's all I see, anyone see anything else?

CTHELPER.EXE

From sysinfo

CTHELPER is a background task that is a plug-in manager for Creative drivers. The theory is that 3rd party manufacturers can use the CTHELPER plug-in interface to produce drivers, add-on features, and fixes that will integrate with a tighter fit with Creative’s sound drivers and utilities. Given its purpose CTHELPER would normally be classified as a "leave alone" background task. It also allows Creative speaker setup to be synchronized with Windows Control Panel speaker setting. Without it running that check box in Creative speaker setting is not functional (settings are not in sync). Unfortunately there are often problems with CTHELPER, most notably that it can use 100% of CPU time so it's best left disabled unless you need it

Have HJT fix these:

Aside from cthelper, you also have a few other programs starting up automatically that, while not malicious, don't need to be running all the time and using system resources. Disabling them is your choice:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [UpdReg] C:\WINDOWS\UpdReg.EXE
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Yahoo! Pager] C:\PROGRA~1\Yahoo!\MESSEN~1\ypager.exe -quiet

A general "slow" feeling about your computer can be caused by things other than "nasties", of course. Systems do get "ragged aroung the edges" after a period of use, so it might be time for some general routine maintenance:

- Clear out the contents of your Cookies, Temp, and Temporary Internet Files folders.

- Use the Add/Remove Programs control panel to uninstall any programs that you don't need or never use.

- Since you seem to have Norton Utilities installed, run Disk Doctor, Speed Disk, Win Doctor, etc. and see if they can clean things up a bit for you.

As far as I can see there's nothing "nasty" in the new log.

Wait for crunchie, dlh6213, or caperjack to give your log a second review before we sign off on it, though.

Are you still experiencing the problems you noted before? As I said earlier, "nasties" aren't the only reasons that your system can feel slow or sluggish.

[crunchie]

Nothing bad, though I would consider again disabling CtHelper if you are still experiencing problems.

Thanks for the quick follow-up Chris. :)

download/update/run adaware, I saw it in the guy's profile above me, you got spyware.
example->getright.exe

p.s. defragment if your comp needs it that'll help a little.

Getright.exe is a legit download manager .

[Danniboy]

damn beat me to it, i too was gonna advise against getright, tht should b detected by adware i think and in taks manager u can sfaely and gladly end that process getright.exe? get out more like...

[caperjack]

its been A long time since i used getright ,but a search shows you could be right ,if this is the free version ,,The registered version isn't spyware if you don't install the Aureate/Radiate software.
