Hello evan_r_crane,

Go to Start > Run and type cmd - hit enter.

Type sc stop lsass and hit enter.

Type sc delete lsass and hit enter.


Next, please reboot your computer in SafeMode by doing the following:
  • Restart your computer
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.
Then delete the following file:

C:\WINDOWS\scvhost.exe

Reboot into normal mode and post a fresh Hijackthis log.

ok i did what u said but there were a few things that got in the way. when i did the cmd thing and entered the two service things it would say "the specified service does not exist as an installed service" is that what it should have read? also im not an administrator on my computer so u just went into my dads and deleted it. i have a feeling it didnt get rid of it for me so im gonna make myself a administrator and then do the same thing i did before and post a log but this is the log i got now.

Hello evan_r_crane,

To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

(Windows XP)
1. Turn off System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

2. Reboot.

3. Turn ON System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
