Re: Possible Infection Affecting Internet

Hello, Wheezy. Can you connect to the internet now?

------------------------------------------------------

Please uninstall the following via Start->(or My Computer)->Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs if it still exists:

Viewpoint Media Player<<This is considered foistware instead of malware since it is installed without users approval, but doesn't spy or do anything "bad". Please read here and here

If you decide to uninstall it, also delete the following Folders if they still exist:

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Viewpoint

------------------------------------------------------

I see you have WildTangent Web Driver installed on your system. Although not technically spyware, it does have built-in components to update itself and collect information about your computer. We recommend uninstalling it. Please read here for information, removal instructions, and a link to an automatic removal tool.

If you uninstall it, delete the following Folder if it still exists:

C:\Program Files\WildTangent

------------------------------------------------------

Go Start > Run and copy/paste the following single-line command into the Run box and click OK:

cmd /c Vfind -ltf "%systemdrive%\winlogon.exe" >log.txt&log.txt&del log.txt

A Notepad file will open. Post the contents of log.txt in your next reply.
