Pleasssseeee helpppppp..... :-|
. I "chatted" with the "Compaq tech." before, but...they seemed to be "clueless".

This happens to a lot of us

I've tried to reboot and reinstall my notebook so many times already, but none seemed to work. :sad: .

Reloading windows is not going to help as the Bios is written in a ROM CMOS chip on you motherboard .
You dont even need a OS install on you computer to axcess the Bios

I really need help from you, guys. I need to know the steps on how to get into the BIOS setup system so i can disable the BIOS shadow. . Don't tell me to press F10, 'cause i did that already and the BIOS setup system is not in there.

only thing I can think to cause this is you are starting to hit the f10 key to late into the boot ,what does happen when you hit the f10 key !

I have a 4 year old PC that I am giving to a friend. I had a "profesional" clean the drive and reload the system (ME). I took it to the friend and then started installing DSL software and getting her online. I had trouble and called the service provider for help. Turns our I cannot get to internet sites when I put the name in (www.yahoo.com) but it does work if I enter the numbers for the site in the address window. At that point the service provider told me it was a PC problem. Anybody have any clues what the problem might be?

Did you try goig to windows updates and update IE/in IE tool /windows updates .

This process will clean out your Temp files and your Temporary Internet Files. Please do both steps:

Step 1:Delete Temp Files
To clean out your temp files, click on Start and then run, and type %temp% and press the ok button.

This should open up the temp directory that your machine uses. Please delete all files that are found there. If you get an error when deleting a file, skip that file and delete all the others. If you had trouble deleting a file, reboot into Safe Mode and follow this step again. You should now be able to delete all the files.

Step 2: Delete Temporary Internet Files

Check all instances of new.net and 'osmim.dll' (and nothing else), and move them to the "Remove" pane.

You have new .net and need to unistall it first ,
follow instructions here .
http://www.newdotnet.com/removal.html
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Your copy of HijackThis needs to be in a folder of it's own. When HJT fixes anything, it makes backups of the original files in the folder it is in. Since Temporary folders are emptied now and then (the files are DELETED), it would not be a good idea to have your backups there. Those backups would be VITAL to restoring your system if something went wrong in the FIX process!


1. Please go to you're 'My Documents' folder, right-click and select 'New > Folder' then name the folder 'HJT'.

2. Copy and paste HijackThis.exe to the new folder.

3. Close ALL windows except HJT

4. SCAN with HJT

caperjack 875 I hate 20 Questions Team Colleague

i've done some research, after many more scans with many more programs, and found i have a problem


its called adsnp.dll

google yields very few results on this (less than 1 pages worth), but i will look through them and see if i can figure this out for myself :D

now, im not sure what creates it, but it didnt 'exist' on my PC in normal mode, so no anti-virus software could get rid of it, and i couldnt see it, so i couldnt delete it, also, renaming something to adsnp.dll makes that file disapear, so i cant even overwrite it, then delete that file.

i decided to go into safe mode, and sure enough, there it was, so i deleted it.
however, on restarting into normal mode, the DLL is still active, as my AV software is warning me of its existence every time i open a window, be it 'IE', or just 'my computer'

also, the "O15 - Trusted Zone: http://*.63.219.181.7" must have something to do with it, as every time i try to remove that, it reapears on the next scan, even if i do it right there and then.

feel free to give any suggestions, im gonna try and figure it out for myself, but hey, the more the merrier, right?

By the way I have 256 MB of ram.

256 is not really enough to have if you want to stop using paging file ,It would work but you would be always getting a message that resources are running low .or out of memory message .about 1gig of memory would be the best .
to change it you ,right click on mycomputer go properties/advanced /performance/settings/advanced /virtual memory /change /turn off paging file

Looks ok to me!
I would suggest installing the recomended program on this SITE

The Experts say that Hijackthis doesn't work up to snuff if Internet Explorer is open when you run the scan ,this shows you have not closed all browser windows when you ran the scan [C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
],
I would suggest you fix the ones Chrunchies said in his reply ,if they came back and empty the temp folder .Nothing should be running from a temp folder .

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ccregle] C:\DOCUME~1\Claudio\LOCALS~1\Temp\Project1.exe
,,,,
Also when i do a search for info on this one ,[O20 - AppInit_DLLs: PAVWAIT.DLL]this is what the Experts say about it ..fixing is up to you I quwss .,,,,,,,,,

CRACKLOC (added 7. september by Ayora from the French forum PCAstuces)

O20 - AppInit_DLLs: CLKERN.DLL

Sources :
Now what is this GREEN color for you might think.... well, Crackloc is not really spyware, but the program is for "cracking"
programs you have downloaded in time-limited trial-versions. I cannot support that kind of cheats

you are running msconfig in /auto mode which means that you may have selectively removed some items in the past from the startup procedure. This can be bad if they are malware, so we would like you to reenable those startup entries by doing the following:

Please click on start, then run, and type msconfig and then press enter. When the window opens click on the startup tab and make sure there are checkmarks in every entry. Then press ok until you are out of the program. If it asks to reboot, do not reboot.

Now please create a new Hijackthis Log and post it as a reply.

You can wait for Crunchie reply to see if he agrees !!
