Hijack log want to remove some startup clutter

Hey Tom,
Want to remove what I do not need. I think the colored entries may be bad. May be more that I do not need. If so let me know. Hate the time it now takes my computer to start up. Can I just check them and run "fix checked" in the hijack this tool. I thought I removed these things and they keep returning.
Thanks

i can't be stuffed looking at all that


http://www.sysinfo.org/startuplist.php


open up msconfig (start>run>msconfig). Select the startup menu.Type in a search on sysinfo.....work with the startup names. It'll come up with possible matches...generally first one relates. Then use look at the table (Status column) and use this key:


* "Y" - Normally leave to run at start-up
* "N" - Not required - typically infrequently used tasks that can be started manually if necessary
* "U" - User's choice - depends whether a user deems it necessary
* "X" - Definitely not required - typically viruses, spyware, adware and "resource hogs"
* "?" - Unknown
Once done editing, select apply and click ok. Reboot, and your done.

hello Bigbulldaddy.

Please do not try to fix any entries on hijackthis your self. it is not recomended. We will go over your log and post suggestions for a fix shorly. Please have patience while one of the forum regulars take a look over the log. thankyou

OK I will wait. I appreciate all of your efforts and am in no hurry. You guys do a great job. Thanks again.
Kris

Hi bigbulldaddy,

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!

Please move or unzip HijackThis to a permanent folder such as C:\HJT or C:\Program Files. It is important that it is in it's own folder as it will make important backups of what we will fix.

Please go to Start > My Computer > double-click your C:\ drive > click: File > New > Folder > name it HJT and put HijackThis into that folder.

Next...

Please go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove programs and remove:

BestPopUpKiller < it is considered bogus software. Google toolbar is much safer and free!

toolbar.google.com

Next...

It appears your PCTools Spyware Doctor has a problem. If you still use this program consider reinstalling. Otherwise please fix the item below marked in RED

Logoff your internet/network connection. Run HijackThis, click scan, place a checkmark next to the following items. Close all browsers and any other windows or the fix may not work! Click "fix checked".

It is OK if some of these items are no longer listed.

These are resource hogs that can be fixed also:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

This is a registration reminder that several companies use. It's considered a resource hog.

O4 - Startup: PowerReg SchedulerV2.exe

If you removed BestPopUpKiller, please fix this line too.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [BestPopUpKiller] C:\Program Files\BestPopUpKiller\BestPopupKiller.exe /startup

Next...

Boot into Safe Mode. Restart your computer, start tapping F8 when your computer first starts booting, there will be a menu displayed > select Safe Mode.

Make sure your computer is configured to show all files and folders.
Click Start.
Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View Tab. Under the Hidden Files and Folders heading select Show Hidden Files and Folders.
Uncheck hide extensions for known file types.
Uncheck the Hide Protected Operating System Files option.
Click Yes to confirm.
Click OK.

Search for and delete the following files:

C:\WINNT\morphstb.exe

c:\winnt\system32\hkvlaa.exe

Reboot normally.

Next....

Please download CCleaner:

http://www.ccleaner.com

Install the program and run it.

On the Windows tab, click Run cleaner.

On the Applications tab, click Run Cleaner.

Please post a fresh HijackThis log.

Tom
