Okay thanks. I'll block everything that is unfimilar to me...this is so confusing I don't know what to let through and what to block...ugh.

And Sygate dissapeared from my icon tray and I couldn't open in at all...even through the desktop icon or through "run"...

So I uninstalled it and re-installed it....was that the right thing to do? Would you know any reason why is dissapeared and it would not have let me open it?

just post them at one reply, separate each with their respective titles. You can also post them separately by the add reply button for each log. :tazz:

Should I delete the AOL software off of my computer. And just use AOL.com to check my email? Would that possibly fix some of my problems?

secure32.txt.... this seems to be a virus I have.

AVG is not getting rid of it...even after ran in safemode.

I searched the net, there is nothing really clear on it.

Here is an updated HiJack This shortly after my AVG scan in safemode.

alongtheway,

you missed some of the logs I requested. Please post them. Logs will explain better what infections are residing on your system rather than explanations. :tazz:

Disclaimer
This service is by no means 100% safe. If this scanner says 'OK', it does not necessarily mean the file is clean. There could be a whole new virus on the loose. NEVER EVER rely on one single product only, not even this service, even though it utilizes several products. Therefore, I cannot and will not be held responsible for any damage caused by results presented by this non-profit online service.

Also, I am aware of the implications of a setup like this. I am sure this whole thing is by no means scientifically correct, since this is a fully automated service (although manual correction is possible). I am aware, in spite of efforts to proactively counter these, false positives might occur, for example. I do not consider this a very big issue, so please do not e-mail me about it. This is a simple online scan service, not the university of Wichita.

Scanning can take a while, since several scanners are being used, plus the fact some scanners use very high levels of (time consuming) heuristics. Scanners used are Linux versions, differences with Windows scanners may or may not occur. Another note: some scanners will only report one virus when scanning archives with multiple pieces of malware.

Virus definitions are updated every hour. There is a 15Mb limit per file. Please refrain from uploading tons of hex-edited or repacked variants of the same sample.

Please do not ask for viruses uploaded here, unless you work for an anti-virus vendor. They are not for trade. This is a legitimate service, not a VX site. Viruses uploaded here will be distributed to antivirus vendors without exception.

I know. My cable modem went out as of around 1pm eastern time sept 5th. I work third shift so I usually get home at 8am eastern time. In my area there was a large a large outage but it was fixed and of course mine is still out as off 11:30pm Eastern time. So someone is comming to look at it on the 7th.

Panda scan is not supported on my browers...weird I use FireFox

I have succesful logs of the silent runner and the Ewido.

So I will post then when I'm back online (I am currently at work right now)

Now my AVG virus scan picks up that there is a virus called "Secure32.txt" on my computer. I don't know if this effects anything...as far as my cable modem. I don't think it should providing I have been online for over 1 day knowing that that virus is on my computer. AVG, I feel has been making my computer run poorly.

Comcast offers the "latest and greatest" Mcaffe Virus scan for free to their comcast customers. I'm going to get rid of AVG and get the mcaffe when I'm up and running again. Also, I'm probably going to get rid of all the AOL software on my computer, just to free up some space.

Any suggestions?

Once again, thank you for being so patient with me. I'm sure you know that computer troubles can be VERY frustrating, so I have the upmost respect for you for trying to help people like me. :tazz:
