I was under the impression that sasser only auto shutdown the machine when you were connected to the net - I have never seen or heard of it shutting down the machine before it even boots into windows.... I agree the fault lies with Microsoft - they enjoy testing unfinished software on the...

Underscores are good too!

A few I'd say, Sysclean from www.antivirus.com - you will need to get the latest pattern files also. Ewido - this is an evalution version but should get rid and could be worth a buy. Trojan Hunter - as above TDS 3 - wierd but good Spybot, adaware, hijackthis etc all have thier place too...

Some form of toolbar is the only info I could find - I agree with Erik - get rid :) Kes

Managed to access the registry with the reglite tool and all other suggestions were very useful too! Thanks guys Kes :)

And remove this also: O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [New.net Startup] rundll32 C:\PROGRA~1\NEWDOT~1\NEWDOT~2.DLL,NewDotNetStartup -s Not sure what this is: Can't find any info on it - do you recognise it? O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [tons ref axis flap] C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\bits...

Here you go :) http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn

Have you run antivirus software on your machine first? How does it perform? Some Worms attack anti-malware software like this in order to avoid detection.... Kes :)

I take it back about Bit Defender, though it does pick up a lot of stuff, it is very buggy and was stopping email coming in and generally making machines flakey. Kes :)

Delete these: O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [popuppers64] C:\WINDOWS\a64sddd.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Dvx] C:\WINDOWS\system32\wsxsvc\wsxsvc. O15 - Trusted Zone: *.media-motor.net O15 - Trusted Zone: *.popuppers.com And I would be very suspicious of these also, unless you have any idea what they relate...

Thanks guys I will give all of your suggestions a try except for the spyware/virus/service pack thing cos that has been done already :) If I have no joy I will ask for more info - if I fix it, I will let you know the results :) Kes

Thanks guys - I shall give all of your suggestions a try this afternoon - hopefully I will be able to get around the problem - I will let you know.... Kes :)

OK - I am working on a machine that was extensively infected with trojans, spyware and adware - I have removed the majority of these but cannot get into the registry to do a final clean up as I get an error messages saying Regedit cannot be found or doesn't exist etc. The machine is running...

Ok - have checked the speed on the network and it is running at 100 FD. Memory, disk space and temp file space all seem fine. Next I am going to try transferring a large file over the network to check performance to and from that machine and I will shorten the length of the cable too, which has...

Maxtor do a generic low-level formatter called 'max llf' - we use it all the time on all kinds of different drives - I agree that the company sound as they are just fobbing you off with BS and sound like they don't essentially wish to support thier product. Is it a large company? Kes :)
