| HJT Log System Slow Disk Busy
My laptop started to suddenly run slow. When it is slow the disk light is on constantly. I used the task manager utility to check the processed when this is happening. There is no process using very much CPU only the disk is busy and using task manager I am not able to find a process that is making the disk busy.
I have Symantec antivirus install and I ran a scan but found nothing. I ran Spybot S&D and it found DoubleClick, FunWeb, FunWebProducts, MyWay.MyWebSearch, MyWebSearch, Web Trends Live and Wild Tangent. I uninstalled Wild Tangent and let Spybot fix the other problems. I then ran Ad-Aware se and it found MyWebSearch and I had it fix that.
Then I ran the web-based McAfee antivirus and it found nothing. I ran the web-based Trendmicro Housecall and it found cookies and nothing elese. Then I ran CWShredder and nothing was found.
The problem persists so I ran HJT and this is the log that it produced.

| No hiding infection there :)
The MyWebSearch mostly likely came pre-installed on your Dell computer. It is best removed via the Control Panel under Add/Remove programs - although it is not harmful really,nor the cause of your symptoms. But the scanners did not completely remove it (possibly because you may have had your browser open during scanning). And some do not detect it because it is not harmful or malicious.
See if this is listed in your Add/Remove programs and remove it from there (with all browsed closed)
MYWEBSEARCH BAR
Then reboot the PC
After reboot, scan with HijackThis and if the following entries are still present, you can checkmark these two and press the *fix checked* button.
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [My Web Search Bar] rundll32 C:\PROGRA~1\MYWEBS~1\bar\2.bin\MWSBAR.DLL,S
Subsequently delete the following folder, if found:
C:\PROGRAM FILES\MYWEBSEARCH BAR
...........
And on a side note (not related at to your problem) is that your Sun Java is very outdated and security risk.
Old versions left on your pc, even after updating can be vulnerable to malware exploit. Go to Start / Control Panel and look in Add/Remove programs. Remove all old versions of Sun Java.
They will appear in the "J's" something similar to:
j2re1.4.2_05 or
JAVA 2 RUNTIME ENVIROMENT SE V1.4.2_03
JAVA 2 RUNTIME ENVIROMENT SE V.14.2_06
(or similar, and there may be more than one. Remove them all)
Then go get the latest up to date version here:
http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Here's why removing old versions of Sun Java is important:
Potential Vulnerability with Sun Java auto update
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,14738046
This is a vulnerability in that Sun Java new updated versions do not remove prior vulnerable versions. You will have to remember to do that manually whenever you update your Sun Java.
............
We could take a little deeper look to ensure there is nothing hiding with this free tool. Please post the logs it makes back here for review:
Download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS)
Save the file to your Desktop.
Note: You must be logged onto an account with administrator privileges.
[*]Close all applications and windows.
[*]Double-click on dss.exe to run it, and follow the prompts.
[*]When the scan is complete, two text files will open - main.txt [color=Red]extra.txt[color=Red](Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of main.txt and the extra.txt to your post. in your reply

| Thanks for the help on this problem.
I was stupid, I should have checked the hardware first.
The problem is that there is a bad block on the hard drive. As you stated at the top "No hiding infection there  ". This made me think about the problem and look a little deeper, but I should have done this first.
I do very much appreciate the time you took with this problem. I will also take advantage of the suggestions for updating the java runtime.
Thanks again, problem fixed. | |
