Introduction to Anti-Malware & Cleaning
Welcome to the Technician's Corner forum here on GuildWarsGuru!
This snippet of information comes from my own website. Consider this an introduction to Anti-Malware, PC Maintenance and what to do for help with HijackThis.
Before you post your logs please go to this PC Maintenance page to clean your computer. There you can choose a set of directions to clean your computer. They come in both a Lo-Fi (meant for Dial-Up Networking users) and a Standard version for high-speed users.
Follow all of the instructions and upon completion post your log here in the following format:
Username - HijackThis Log #
Should you have further problems you will be asked to do certain things such as running any/all of the applications again and then reposting your log. In this case you would post a reply to your own post with the new log.
By omitting* the running of the contents of the Anti-Malware package(s) when posting a log you risk wasting valuable time that could be spent assisting other users.
Startup optimization is also included after all the spyware/adware has been cleaned from your system.
*Note: Windows Defender only works on the following: Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or later, or Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, or Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 or later. If you do not have one of the listed Operating Systems, you do not have to worry about skipping that step.
Good luck!
