For the junk file you typed netstat -RN instead of  netstat -ES.  Can you try it again?

 

Your adwcleaner results are interesting. 

 

We could look at the registry entries in regedit and see if they have a permission problem but if AdwCleaner can't remove them you would have to take ownership to change the permissions.  Let's get FRST again and use a fixlist to unlock them so we can see them.

 

 

Download the attached Fixlist:

 

[*]Get FRST from
You need to download the appropriate tool for your PC.  If you don't know if you have a 32 or 64 bit system get them both.  Only one will work and that's the right one.
 
[*]Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer. 
[/LIST]
 
Press Fix.  You will get just the one log. Please post it.  We are just trying to look at the registry entries on this pass.  Don't want to remove them until I know what they are.

I copied and pasted the command in the box but it says it can't find the specified path

 

I attached a screenshotCapture1.PNG

 

I can't figure out how to add the fixlist to FRST64

Two problems.

 

One: you have to use an elevated command Prompt:

 

Win 7:  Start, All Programs, Accessories then right click on Command Prompt and Run as Admin.
 
By default the elevated command prompt will start in C:\Windows\System32 and not in c:\users\yourlogin\
 
Two:  you have a space after the \ before the junk.txt:
 
 \junk.txt not \ junk.txt

Yes the forum has some problems with replies. We complain to admin and he fixes it for a while then it comes back.  I've hidden the extras.

 

Your netstat -es does not show any problem with TCP/IP.  You have a lot fewer retransmissions than I have on my PC.

 

The services don't look all that suspicious to me.  I expect if you ran adwcleaner again it could now delete them.

 

When exactly does your PC feel slow?  On boot, opening a browser, surfing the net, typing in notepad?

 

Which browser are you using if the slowness is during surfing?

any browser I use. when I click to go to the web, the little wheel spins for a while before anything happens.  then the yahoo page or any page for that matter opens but is unresponsive for about 30 seconds. also. playing flash games in facebook, sometimes they get so slow, they just hang up for a few minutes.

 

I have uninstalled flash player and reinstalled it but the same problem persists.

 

should  I run adwcleaner again?

You can run adwcleaner again.

 

Let's try Speedy Fox:

 

http://www.crystalidea.com/speedyfox

 

 

Download, run it (close all browsers) Optimize.  I usually run it several time until the time that it reports is about the same time each run.

 

This should make Firefox & Chrome start up a bit faster.

 

Open an elevated Command Prompt

 

Type:

nslookup geekstogo.com > \junk.txt
notepad \junk.txt

Copy & paste the text from notepad.

 

Are you connecting with WiFi or an Ethernet cable?

Go to http://www.metageek....port/downloads/

 

and click on the blue button in the bottom right that says InSSIDer 4 windows.  That will start the download.  Doubleclick on the downloaded file to install it.  

 

If I remember correctly it will start automatically (if not it's under All Programs, Metageek, inssider).  Click on the Network tab.  

 

You should see your network at the top of the list on the left and in a lot more detail on the right.  What is the signal strength? Is there anything after Overlapping?  

Look in the bottom left.  The blue is your wifi.  Is there an orange under it?  What level is the orange?   Does it recommend (near the top) that you switch to a different channel?
