Your hijackthis log shows that you did not reboot after running MBA-M. You should do so in order for MBA-M to complete it's process. You need to paste your logs into your reply too so that we do not have to download your files.

It's ok PhilliePhan, some ppl think they know better than the manufacturers :).

Sounds like your power button might be stuck on to me.

Make certain that you have the memory sticks in the correct dimms for them to work in dual channel :). Usually, but not always, the same colour slots are the same channel. If you do single tasking mostly, have the RAM ganged. Otherwise put them into unganged. The following tells …

Sounds like the thermal protection is kicking in. Is the cpu fan spinning up to maximum? Looks like a bios flash might be in order too, judging by the date there :).

In addition to what tux4life has said, do not use chatroom speak. Use correct, complete English words and sentences as per the forum rules. Thank you.

As well as downloading MBA-M, you need to [b]update[/b] it [i]and[/i] [b]run[/b] it :). Remove anything it finds and reboot. Try again to connect. Try safe mode with networking to see if you can connect.

Get the update from here [url]http://www.gt500.org/malwarebytes/database.jsp[/url] and manually install it.

Technically speaking, cmos battery is correct. This battery supplies power to store the BIOS settings whilst the pc is shut down :). Did you go into the BIOS and set the correct time after changing the battery?

That DSS scan looks like it was run last year? Without updating, MBA-M is next to useless in removing the latest infections.

Shouldn't be using combofix anyway without instruction. It can mash your whole OS if you do something wrong. [url=http://microsoft-autoplay-repair-wizard.en.softonic.com/]Microsoft AutoPlay Repair Wizard[/url]

Doing a repair only will not delete the files. Only a reformat will do that. If you want to format, remove the hard drive first and hook it up to another pc and transfer the files you want to save.

An hijackthis log is (usually) the first thing we ask for.

The faster RAM will just default to the slowest RAM's speed. Having said that, ideally one should have matching sticks.

Better off advising an on-line scan rather than loading up extra AV's. I gather Kaspersky are up to that.
