yes it is.....when you delete the prefetch, it will totally clean that out, and as a result, the next reboot will take about 30 seconds to a minute longer, but after that initial reboot, you're cool....give me a few (car blew up, dealing with fixing it) and I'll check your log shortly...

How's the machine running now?

Dealing with fixing it in safe mode, hijackthis, scan only, select 09 tool&button, fix selected, fixed, restart. Done
However i still get the shell32 change in avg, it might be becaue of windows updates-i dunno.

oh, the machine seems to be running ok

Thanks, Jake

It booted ok, the welcome screen must have shown for at least 30 secs


Thanks, Jake

that, my friend, is hitting the proverbial nail on the head. It's common for files like Shell32.dll (and Kernel32.dll) to be slightly modified by Microsoft updates, and when they are modded, then AVG will do it's job and let you know. That is most likely what happened here.

boot up normally, scan with hjt, place a tick next to the below and click fix checked.

reboot and post a new log, but it's looking pretty clean. Are you still using a lexmark printer?

thanks,

v

Ok, yes I am still using a lexmark printer. I also used a ccleaner program that I found, which is symilar to ATF cleaner which helped clean programs.

This is the site that i posted on first page that said somthing about windows updateds with AVG AVG Free Forum :: Other Issues :: Change message appearing???

Thanks, Jake

yup. I would follow their advice, press f3 to accept the changes and go on about your business.....do you clear that entry from your log, and if so, I do want to see one more log.....


thanks,

v

I can clear that other entry (below) later when I am back from school, then I will post another log.
