| for some reason. internet explorer(I dont use it much) but it seems to slow down anything that connects to the internet, including AIM, but what it does is change my homepage on IE to about:blank but instead its like a search thing, and if I try to change it, it goes back everytime I reopen IE, that and no matter what, my computer is taking way to much cpu usage, the IE thing I thought was spyware until I did a scan with ad-aware, and spybot, neither finding anything, so right now im running a virus scan, so we will see what it turns up, but anyone know why this is happening, just incase the virus scan doesnt reveal anything aswell. | |||

You -DID- update the definitions, right?  Oh, and if you're not using the latest version of IE, get that. Otherwise I'd suggest either using a diffrent browser or trying a diffrent version of IE. *Xkeeper shrugs I never liked IE much anyway  Never had THAT problem, though  |

| It's spyware alright, though it might not be detected. Run msconfig and look for suspicious-looking entries. | |||

| Besides Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware the little, but very useful tool HiJack This! might help too. Run it, and post the entries, like in a .txt file which you link into a post from; someone who has knowledge about the entries might help you to sort out all unneeded information from the Windows registry. |

| I had that problem once. No matter what I tried, NO spyware program detected it. I had to manually go into the registry and reset everything myself. Luckily for me, I've messed with the registry before, so I had some clue of what I was doing. Hopefully, one of the posted links in here will work for you, so that you can avoid having to do that. |

| Most of that means nothing to me. However, I do see that you're using Norton. You need to get rid of that, and get either McAfee or Kaspersky. Symantic is no good. They're currently under investigation for creating viruses just to make sure that Norton has something to do. Once I got rid of Norton, I had more free resources, my PC stopped crashing all the time, and, most importantly, it stopped trying to go online on it's own. Turns out it was Norton trying to go online to download who knows what. It got so bad that I had set my dialup connection to NOT autodial. The worst thing is that it would do it everytime I booted up, or after I had left the computer alone for awhile. |

| so far, norton has been a lifesaver...no real problems for me....and it doesnt seem to hog up the pc.....but I might get something different later on or something.. well it seemed that eogbkaa.dll was the problem with IE....but i still dont know whats causing IE, and sometimes Explorer, or other applications to use so much memory....right now, EXPLORER is using 45000k and iexplorer is taking 34000k...so its very weird, but I got rid of the eogbkaa with hijack this....hopefully it wont come back.

Well, they are RAM hogs.  Originally posted by Elric No, NOT McAfee. It sucks a lot. I had it for a while (legit full version, came with the PC), it's basically like "OMG THIS FILE R TEH VRIUS GO KILL IT ONO". (That is to say, it never once removed or cleaned an infected file, just left it up to me to delete it.) Plus, after I reinstalled Windoze (ME  ) and did NOT install it again, after a few days, it somehow managed to install itself! (It was on the system restore CD which was in the drive, but still, WTF?)Get AVG, it's free and it pwns. |

| I have never in my life used a firewall, firewalls are for people that install stuipd shit on their computer and can't keep it running right the firewall stops more thing sfrom working, than it keeps from getting messed up |

| Sure, WinME sucks, but either way McAfee did not make any sort of attempt at all to remove the viruses. Quite stupid, really. (And mine didn't come with a firewall. ) |

I see a few questionable items on that list. MAKE SURE you GOOGLE these questionable items in Google first, because although I'm a bit familiar with HijackThis, I am NOTHING like an expert.Originally posted by Chaosflare NOTE 1: I am not familiar with that alberta.com thing or that hostilespace thing at all. If you didn't put those pages there in those settings, get rid of them. IERESET.INF is very suspicious. To fix, just check the check boxes of the list items I listed above, and hit FIX CHECKED. As always, google all of the files I suggested BEFORE you delete them, because I'm no expert. |

| atievxx.exe is ATI related, so its related to the people who made the video card for this computer, although, a website says its useless to 99.9% of users, and is sometimes a resource hog, so I can probably get rid of it, mdm.exe is Machine Debug Manager, so I can most likely get rid of it also.... I got rid of the eogbkaa when I first saw it, but, it keeps coming back as something else....so I keep deleting it with hijackthis....and I did a search, but no results the alberta and hostile space things are ok, I put those there... the zsearch bar wont go away, ill have to do a safe mode restart later to get rid of everything....including the eogbkaa |

Originally posted by HyperHackerHeh. I had the exact opposite problem: Notron either never found the viruses, or the few it did, when it tried to remove them, it crashed windows. McAfee, on the other hand, not only found them, it asked me what to do with them, and when I said remove them, it did, no problems. I have McAfee Professional Edition, which comes with a firewall (which I didn't use). It also installed a File Shredder, Safe & Sound (which works like the WinXP rollback feature), Script Blocker, and HAWK for e-mail. No LiveUpdate crap, no expiration of virus def updating services, etc. That was one thing I have ALWAYS hate about Norton: Having to pay them to subscribe to get their updated virus definitions. I don't pay to get viruses, so I will NOT pay to get rid of them. |

That's probably the problem then. Mine wasn't pro (didn't know they even made that), in fact it was some trial edition. (But if I reinstalled it, the trial restared too, hehe.  ) Not a good way to get a positive reputation, making trial versions suck like that.  All I ever got was "The file soandso.js is infected with the w32.soandso virus".  |
