I hope you can help. I have been in a Malware forum and I have been checked for malware and all is ok.

My problems started when downloaded free game from a web site. My defragmenter cannot fragment all my files and when I do a Mcafee virus scan it stops at $hf_mig$\KB896428\update\updspapi . I have followed all the instructions given me before posting this.

Trojan Hunt found nothing. Ad aware stopped at C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB867282$. AVG also froze at C:\WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$\syimchnn.zip:\com\m...\column.class.

When I reboot, the screen sometimes is over one side so there is no start button on view .

Mc Afee detected a virus WdHxB.exe and o9e4.exe but could not delete this.

This is my Ewido file

Click start then run, type prefetch then press enter, click edit, select all, right click any file, click delete, confirm

Click start then all programmes, accessories, system tools to run disc clean up, click more options, click clean up restore points, confirm

Click start then run, type %TEMP% then press enter, click edit then select all, right click any file, click delete and when it shows access denied, delete as many as possible manually

Reboot the PC

If you can access online scans, try here

http://us.trendmicro...call/v6.5/?us=2

Tick to accept the agreement then launch housecall

If you are unable to run an online scan

Get the trial of Tune Up 2006 here

Tune Up 2006 Trial

Run disc clean up then registry clean up then click optimize to run reg defrag, which needs a reboot

Those will help the defragmenting

The others are suggestions for maiking the most of the free trial

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to optimize the computer, select computer with an internet connection from the drop down menu, this also requires a reboot

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to accelerate downloads, select the speed just above your actual connection speed, this requires a reboot

After the reboot, click optimize then system optimizer to run system advisor

Hi Keith

I have followed all your instructions . There were 4 files I couldnt delete. After doing this I did a defrag and there were two files left. It appears to be in my documents and settings. 2 files...size 638KB.

I also tried the virus scan and set it to scan sub folders only and it stopped again at the same point.

I made a note of the 4 files in case that was useful.

Thanks, Susan

If you are absolutely sure the files are not needed

Try with either of these

This is for the original Move On Boot

http://www.snapfiles...moveonboot.html

This is for a new version by a different author, it has a higher rating but I have not used it

http://www.snapfiles...et/emcomob.html

Whichever one you use, they will delete the files so it is important you check they are not required

You could try renaming them or moving them to a folder you create in my documents then reboot and they should delete from the new folder

Also, if you run defragmenter straight after booting the PC, or perhaps run it in safe mode it will run properly

Hi Keith

Am not sure if I need these files or not. I did %temp% again and all the names were totally different from the ones I noted the day before. I downloaded the second snapfiles but was totally lost . I am thinking of downloading the first one but wanted to check about these files first. They are a mixture of numbers and letters at random so I dont think they are needed. Thanks , Susan

Click start then run, type %TEMP% then press enter, right click any file then look for a blue cross with delete file(s) on next boot, click that and the file will be removed. If you right click a file then press and hold down the ctrl key, it should highlight all the files you left click, if so, click as many as you want, release the ctrl key, right click while the mouse is still over a highlighted file then click delete files on next boot

hi Keith

I have just done as instructed. I have tried it three times but without success. I clicked on blue cross and then it came up as delete succeeded on next reboot. But they are not going. I tried a defrag and the virus scan and it still froze. These files seem to be in hidden files . The other files which are not hidden I can delete. I remember looking for hidden files before with no success .

Thanks, Susan

Can you install SpeeDefrag from my signature, click yes for desktop icon then tick launch SpeeDefrag when it finishes installing, click OK on the box, this will restart the PC, it will load most of the way to the desktop but stop at the defragmenter, you will get a box with scan analysis report with two figures, the red light on the tower should be active, so leave that run, when it finishes it will show a second line, then it will shut down the PC

Hopefully that will be part of it out of the way

Click start then search, click advanced options to include hidden and system files

I have had real problems as after a reboot I lose the start icon and I have to keep rebooting till eventually it comes back. In the search what am I to look for as I can find the files but cant delete them. I did a search yesterday as I was determined to delte them but got the same result as when I tried the other way with %temp%. I will give it another go with speedefrag but it is hard when the screen goes to the left or right or I get left with no start icon. Thanks, Susan

If you press ctrl + alt + delete keys together you should get task manager, click file, new task, type explorer.exe then press enter and you should get the start button

Thanks for that as at least should now get the start button. If I do search and then advanced search .. I brought up some of the files in hidden folders that I found when doing %temp%. But I could still not delete. It says these are being used by another person or programme.

If you right click the file, you should see a blue X with delete file(s) on next boot, go for the big ones, making sure you do not need them because these will not go to the recycle bin this way.

If you press and hold down the ctrl key, you should be able to click a number of files, they should highlight blue, then still holding down ctrl, right click then click delete file(s) on next boot and they will be deleted, reboot, check for the files, run tune up reg clean up

Yes I have just done that and the files seem to have gone. Or at least I can see them but it is saying file size 0KB. I have done a tune up and clean up. I then did a defrag but there are still some files not defragmenting. One says My documents and the other system volume information. In the past I tried perfectdisk etc but it did not help. Is there anything else I can do please ? susan

Try with SpeeDefrag again, or boot the PC and keep tapping F8 until you get options, choose safe mode then run disc clean up then disc defragmenter in safe mode
