Hi, the Title and Description pretty much says it all. SFC /SCANNOW seemed to fix a little bit of the sound issue (it still does have the problem just not as much), and I want to be 100% sure I don't have any malware issues on this system. I don't trust Norton but that's what we had to get. I keep it latest updates 99% of the time, they are at latest defs as of writing this.

Hi there,

Sorry for the delay. Our helpers have been very busy.

You're right, I don't see any traces of malware. If you want, we can take a deeper look with DSS.

Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.

• Close all other windows before proceeding.
• Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
• When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply. Note: It's likely that the two logs won't fit into one post. If so, please post extra.txt in a separate post.

Hi Tal, and thanks for taking a look at it. I'm not near my laptop right now but I will run DSS as soon as I'm there. Thanks.

[Tal]

OK, you're welcome. I'll reply here as soon as you post.

Thanks!

[Beli]

bump, still waiting for another reply for many days! Thanks.

[Tal]

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. I had many logs going on and you must have slipped through the cracks

Anyway, the logs are clean. Any specific issues you can point out?

[Beli]

I think I'll take the issue to the Hardware forum, since this really isn't a malware issue (at least I now know that it isn't.) Thanks, Tal. (Wow, you live in Tel-Aviv, Israel! Very interesting.)

[Tal]

You're welcome. Below are some suggestions on how to keep your PC clean I will leave this topic open for a few days for any additional questions or concerns you have.

(Wow, you live in Tel-Aviv, Israel! Very interesting.)

Not really Tel Aviv, but close. I just put in Tel Aviv for clarity's sake

We have a couple of last steps to perform and then you're all set.

First, let's reset your hidden/system files and folders. System files are hidden for a reason and we don't want to have them openly available and susceptible to accidental deletion.

* Click Start.
* Open My Computer.
* Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
* Select the View tab.
* Under the Hidden files and folders heading UNSELECT Show hidden files and folders.
* CHECK the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
* Click Yes to confirm.
* Click OK.

Next, let's clean your restore points and set a new one:

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs from changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)
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. Restart your computer.

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.
[/list]
System Restore will now be active again.

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programs:

• SpywareBlaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place.
• IESpy-Ad to block access to malicious websites so you cannot be redirected to them from an infected site or email.

You should also have a good firewall. Here are 3 free ones available for personal use:

• Sygate Personal Firewall
• Kerio Personal Firewall
• ZoneAlarm

and a good antivirus (these are also free for personal use):

• AVG Anti-Virus
• Avast Home Edition

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To keep your operating system up to date visit

• Microsoft Windows Update

monthly. And to keep your system clean run these free malware scanners

• AdAware SE Personal
• Spybot Search & Destroy

weekly, and be aware of what emails you open and websites you visit.

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klien: So how did I get infected in the first place?

Have a safe and happy computing day!

Tal

[Beli]

Thanks Tal, and those suggestions are great! I run Norton already (I don't trust it but it has kept the computer clean with weekly scans). I also already run the MVP HOSTS file and various other things.

By the way, I work at Protonic.com as a computer support technician, and I could have looked at the logfile myself, but I wanted a true second opinion. Thanks!

[Tal]

You're welcome
