Hijackthis Log ?

[Mags]

Hello,

I run Windows XP, used to have Norton, but removed it and now have free Comodo firewall and free Avast Antivirus.

Hijackthis appeared to be ok ... until recently ..... recently I removed Avast, downloaded free Avira ... I can't believe these actions produced this possible problem, but I ran Hijackthis and have the O15 entries, which the Log Analyser site at the Log Analyser site which I use http://www.hijackthis.de/ says that some of the O15 Entries are nasty....

Every time I get Hijackthis to Delete them, they return straight away. Have been to other Log Analyser sites.... some agree with the above, but one site said everything was ok....

Computer appears to be working ok, but it's been a bit slower since I downloded Comodo and Avast.

And currently, as I have been unwell, I don't think I have the mental energy to Reinstall Windows, etc etc....

Thanks... Mags

Heya Mags!


In Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options, and then Security.

The look under Trusted Sites, then Sites.

What shows there?

edit: and Mags, this article covers how to manipulate the My Computer entries; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/174360

This HJT tutorial covers the entries you are seeing; http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tuto...2.html#O15Diag

Also, you seem to have Comodo Internet Security, not just the Comodo firewall..Comodo Internet Security includes an antivirus, so with Avast and Comodo running you may be getting slowdowns and conflicts..it's never good to have two antivirus programs running at the same time.

[Mags]

Oh .............. dear .................... blush .............. blush ............. I've since realised an essential key was missing ....HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap

I think I may have deleted it, thinking it was something to do with Spybot that I had on ages ago .... so I re-Merged it .... and oh .... dear .... blush..... blush ........................

I have worked very hard the last few days to try and sort this and had a few sleepless nights, so this will teach me not to mess with the Registry so much !!!

A log analyser now says that my HJT log is clean ..... !!!

And no, I don't have Comodo Antivirus, only the Firewall, but that with Avast Antivirus still seems slow ... other people have same problems.

Thanks guys ....

Exits left ..................................

Comodo Free Firewall is bundled with the free version of Comodo Internet Security. I've got it, but only for the firewall, I disabled the other features, it runs smoothly alongside Symantec Endpoint Protection.

But yeah, deleting random registry entries you think might not be important is what led to one or two of my computers dying... <.< >.>

[Ferrit]

Do you have a router?
If you have a router I cant imagine
why you need a software firewall.
Deleting registry keys is a very very very scary proposition.
