Hi. My computer is running slowly and I would like to eliminate unnecessary processes, as well as any malware you see in my log. In particular, I would like to know what BroadJump and Client Foundation (cfd.exe) are, and if cfd.exe can be safely removed. It looks like spyware to me, but neither AdAware nor Spybot removed it.

My log will be in the following post.

Thanks in advance for your help. :-)

I just wanted to clarify the discrepency between my Geeks to Go user profile (which says I am running Win 98 SE) and the HJT log I posted above (which says I am running XP). I have Win 98 on my home computer, and the above log is from my work computer.

...but you probably already knew that... :tazz:

I would like to know what BroadJump and Client Foundation (cfd.exe) are

They're installed by your ISP to monitor your Internet connection quality. Not malicious.

The following are not necessarily spyware/malware, but we suggest you place a check mark next to the following entries, as these programs may be taking up system resources.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] \"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe\" -osboot
(Description: RealPlayer scheduler. Completely unnecessary. Removing this entry will free up a small amount of system resources.)

O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE
(Description: Microsoft Office startup assistant. Not necessary. Removing this entry will free up a significant amount of system resources.)
