lilia 0 Posted February 5, 2005 First of all, my computer seems to always be running. That is, it's as if a program is running even when nothing is. (It's making that sound.) I had Kaspersky Antivirus installed, but it started to have problems scanning (it would stop at around 4% and I would get a message saying it has to close). Now I have Panda Antivirus. I had another problem just a moment ago. Upon turning my computer on, I got the black screen stating whether I would like to restart in normal mode or safe mode. When I chose normal mode, the computer would automatically restart. I tried this several times and the same thing happened. Eventually, I tried the safe mode and windows xp loaded, but I cannot use the internet in safe mode. I waited about an hour and tried to restart it in normal mode again and it worked! I was able to log into windows and get on the internet. I'm not good with computers, so I don't know why all of this was happening or what I could have done to make it happen. Any help is greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post

Wilhelmus 1 Posted February 6, 2005 Also download Hijack this. See the hijackthis quick start, for how to use it. Paste the log file here, when you have scanned your system. Download McAfee AVERT Stinger, utility used to detect and remove specific viruses. Share this post Link to post
Matt747 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Hi. I too have been suffering from a very slow Windows XP. I downloaded "Hijack This" and these are the results - any ideas anyone?
