Hello there -I'm concerned about the two files in the affix's title - and I ordain inform the steps I've taken so far... Initially. I noticed that my computer was taking an extraordinarily desire measure to kick so I investigated and contacted TrendMicro (I use their Internet Security product). They told me that TM was taking a lot of memory because it was interacting with The Annonymizer software that I had installed. So I unistalled it. The computer comfort loaded very slowly so I started looking around on the internet and by chance was looking at my "hosts" register location and discovered those two files in the affix call. When deleted they immediately return and if you open them they appear to be copies of the hosts register. I commented out the lines in the files but I want to be rid of them. Then I found this site and proceeded to follow all of the "Read & Run Me First" steps. Ccleaner - cleaned up a bunch of stuff - but could not clean under "Admin" couldn't change surface get in. So I cleaned the two profiles in safe mode. Not much there to be cleanedSpyBot - 1 or 2 cookies cleaned off (surprisingly clean!) TrendMicro has a problem with SpyBot too - so did not immunize the computer. Well. I did at first and then undid according to TMs instructionsAVG Anti-Spyware - nothing foundBitdefender - nothing open - but now I keep getting ActiveX changes from their website caught by TrendMicroPanda ActiveScan - two spyware cookies - the standard doubleclick and tribalfusionRan the runkeys and newfiles - ordain connect logsThen downloaded the new HijackThisv2 - but did as suggested and renamed the executable to analyse exe and ran. Will attach log. As for system regenerate - it may be on but I just haven't bothered to figure out how to use it so I wouldn't use it for a system restore anyway. I lay and uninstall so much stuff that I let go track. Perhaps I should look into using this in the future (or a cloning software)
I was having a hard time running stuff in safe mode - driver problems - using video drivers that aren't "official" - from trying to use a widescreen monitor with a Vaio laptop. Anyway... I wish that you can help. Also one file that takes a lot of Mem usages alter now is the rundll32 exe - I don't think that it did before. And the TrendMicro files be to undergo toned down a bit - but I'm around 500MB MemUsage at startup. Thanks!Nif
