I have had to start another thread because nobody replied to the one I submitted last week. I am very worried about my pc. It's taking forever to boot up, then it takes ages for all the programs to get going, then once all thats done it's running like a sack of potatoes, really slow and struggling. Anti-Virus scans are picking up nothing. Here's my hijack log:

You are running 2 antivirus programs (Kaspersky and AVG)
I suggest you run only one of them and uninstall the other. They tend to fight against each other.

You may wish to print out a copy of these instructions to follow while you complete this procedure.

Please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put a check mark in the boxes, only next to these following items :

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{2957BB99-4352-4499-AFCE-3C59908DA77A}: NameServer = 69.50.177.204 85.255.112.25
O17 - HKLM\System\CS1\Services\Tcpip\..\{2957BB99-4352-4499-AFCE-3C59908DA77A}: NameServer = 69.50.177.204 85.255.112.25
NOTE: If these are not dns servers from your ISP check them for removal

Click on Fix Checked

If you would please, rescan with HijackThis and post a fresh log here.

[dogbiscuit]

Those entries are only there when I'm online. I tried removing them once before and they just came back when I reconnected. I don't think they are my ISP's DNS servers.

[Linkmaster]

Run the new HijackThis log then:

Download Silent Runners
Save it to the desktop.
Run Silent Runner's by doubleclicking the "Silent Runners" icon on your desktop.
You will receive a prompt:
Do you want to skip supplementary searches? click NO
You will see a text file appear on the desktop - it's not done, let it run (it won't appear to be doing anything!)
Once you receive the prompt All Done!, open the text file on the desktop, copy that entire log, and paste it here.
*NOTE* If you receive any warning message about scripts, please choose to allow the script to run.

[dogbiscuit]

Those entries just keep coming back everytime I connect to the internet.
Here's my hijack log and my silent runners log:

I couldn't do that as these lines are only there when I'm online, as soon as I go offline they disappear. Here is my hijack from safe mode as I thought it was showing a couple of entries which aren't there in normal mode, I could be wrong though.

Tell me that these DNS lines don't mean I'm connecting to some pirate's server and racking up some shadey internet bill?!?

[Linkmaster]

Now lets check some settings on your system.

In the windows control panel. If you are using Windows XP's Category View, select the Network and Internet Connections category otherwise double click on Network Connections.
Then right click on your default connection, usually local area connection for cable and dsl, and left click on properties.
Click the Networking tab.
Double-click on the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item and select the radio dial that says Obtain DNS servers automatically
(Check to see if those entries are there and remove them)
Press OK twice to get out of the properties screen and reboot if it asks.
(That option might not be avaiable)
Next Go start run type cmd and hit OK
type
ipconfig /flushdns
then hit enter, type exit hit enter
(that space between g and / is needed)

Run another Log if you would.

Right here's the new log. I think we zapped em! I did this log while I was connected.

Great !!
I also noticed you uninstalled one of the antivirus programs !! Good !!
How is your system running now ??

Congratulations! Your log is CLEAN

Here are a few tools that I recommend for protecting your system and keeping your system clean !!

Real Time Prevention
SpywareBlaster

Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
Consumes no system resources.

Download, run, check for updates, download updates, select all, protect against checked. All done. Check for updates every couple of weeks. If you have any errors running the program like a missing file see the link at the bottom of the javacool page.
IESpyad : This will add several hundred Restricted Sites to the Restricted site zone in IE.

Cleaner:
CCleaner is a good app to clean out temp files, cookies, recent folder(win2000) and Prefetch folder(XP), etc

Spyware Scanners:
Ad-aware SE Scans your system for spyware and other threats
a² Scanner : Scans for Malware and Trojans on your system.

Good Free Antivirus Programs:
AVG
Avast!

Windows Update:
It's also very important to keep your system up to date to avoid unnecessary security risks
Windows Update

Firewalls:
If you have an "always on " internet connection, such as DSL or Cable, I recommend a firewall:
Sygate
ZoneAlarm

These next steps are optional, but will provide the greatest protection
Use ANY browser besides Internet Explorer, almost every exploit is crafted to take advantage of an IE weakness.

Alternative Browsers:
FireFox
Opera

Sun's Java. It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine .

It's okay to delete the HijackThis folder if everything is working okay.

Remember always use just 1 antivirus program at a time. Using more than one causes a conflict between the programs !!

Using these apps, your system will be thoroughly protected from future threats.

Cool, my pc seems to be running good now. Thanks very much.
So what does it mean that I had those DNS servers in my log? Does this mean I could have been racking up one of these huge internet bills by connecting to the wrong place!? I sincerely hope not!
Thanks for all those reccomendations. Is there a particualr browser that you would reccomend? There seems to be so many now. I've been told firefox, would you agree with that?
