Joe I have downloaded the Hijackthis scan,when i got to use it do I do a System scan only(this brings up files etc and boxes next to them all unticked)or do I do a scan and save log file?
I have had a bit of a play with it,but unsure if I should tick any boxes?
Apoligies for so many questions Joe but I dont want to put myself in more trouble if u get what I mean.....Thanks again I will continue with the pre work instructions......regards Andy

Joe hopefully i have done this right and scan results are attached Ewido found 14 problems which i removed hope that was right thing to do...Thankyou....PS I also answered my question from previous post about hijackthis scan.....lol i should read instruction b 4 I use things....AndyScan report_20051218.txt.txt

Don't worry about asking questions , thats what we are here for.

Youre hjt log looks good , only this one to fix:


O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE

Putt a tick infront of it and press "fix checked".

But there are 2 things in the Ewido log that needs checking.


Please go to add/remove programs and uninstall NewdotNet. If you don't have that option or if you have difficulties then please follow the instructions on this site


Please Download RKFiles.zip

Create a new folder C:\Antispyware\RKFiles
Extract the contents of RKFiles.zip into the new folder you just created.

Next, Create a new Folder on Desktop. Name that Folder QOOLOGIC
Please download Findqoologic into the new Folder, and then unzip it into the new Folder.

Restart to safe mode. (tap f8 key during bootup)

Open the C:\Antispyware\RKFiles folder
Double click on RKFILES.BAT

Give it time to run. this may take a while.

Save the text file it creates.
It should save by default to C:\Log.txt

Next, open the QOOLOGIC Folder and Locate and double-click the Find-Qoologic.bat file to run it.

Wait until a text file opens, safe the contents.
It'll take a while to run a full scan so please be patient.

Restart into regular Windows mode and post the contents of C:\log.txt and the find-qoologic results.

Hi Joe I have ticked O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Alcmtr] ALCMTR.EXE and clicked fix.

NewdotNet, I could not find it in my add/remove programmes so I went and done it from the site as per intructions.
In regards to the RKFILES.zip do I create a new folder in C: drive or on my desk top?
Also I can not seem to get into Findqoologic,it tells me page is unavailable,check browser settings etc, I have tried numerous times with the same result.
Many thanks again Joe......Regards Andy

Sorry for the dead link , i will update my canneds. And here is an working link:

http://downloads.subratam.org/Find-Qoologic.zip

And for the folder location , please use the suggested locations that i posted , that way my follow post will still point to the correct places on youre pc.

Joe hopefully the attached file is the one u wnat for the RKFile, I ahve not doen the Qoologic one as to yet as when i try to start in safe mode now I get the following come up

Select Boot device
!st floppy Drive
SM-HL-Dt-ST DVDRAM GSA-4163B
PM-ST380013AS
IBA Fe Slot OS40 v4116

My comp starts no probs in normal mode but the above is all new?
As afr as I know I have no boot device,this system came with no dics as all is loaded into comp being Packard Bell????

Try it like this; start/run/msconfig/boot.ini tab , putt a check infront of "?safeboot , press apply and let it restart youre pc.

Once in safemode run both scans.
