Computer Running Slow - HJT Log Posted
My computer has been running very slowly recently. I've updated my virus definitions and Norton 2004 has found nothing. I updated AdAware and it found nothing as well, but the computer is still running slowly. My HiJack This log is as follows:

Hi mrhuntman,

Please update HijackThis, you are using an outdated version:

Open HijackThis, click Config > Misc Tools > Check for Update online

Or download a copy of version 1.98.2 at:

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

Post a fresh log with this new version.

Also....

You are seriously behind on Windows Updates. This leaves your computer open to many threats. You will just get infected again if you don't install these! Please update Windows and Internet Explorer. Download each critical update one by one, rebooting when necessary.. Repeat this until you get the message "no critical updates available". http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/

Tom

mrhuntman,

You need to download (at the very least) Windows XP Service Pack 1 and Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 and all the additional critical updates that relate.

I DO NOT suggest downloading Windows XP Service Pack 2 until your computer is clean and after you perform a full backup of you personal data!!!!

I will check over your log tomorrow.

Tom

I have an educational version of Windows XP and don't have a serial number so I can't upgrade to SP1.

You might want to print these instructions for reference or copy and paste them into notepad and save them on your desktop, as you will be off the internet while using HijackThis.

If you have any questions before starting the fix, please don't hesitate to ask!

You are running Wild Tangent. Though technically not malware, it is foistware. If you installed it on purpose, I recommend that you remove it unless you feel it's something you really want and need. If you didn't install it deliberately, then definitely get rid of it.... To do so, go to Add/Remove Programs and remove it there. Also, go to your Control Panel and delete the Wild Tangent icon there. Remove the associated items in RED below.

Next....
