Hi,

Multiple instances of svhost.exe running is normal and necessary for the proper functioning of programs and services. I do see remnants of an infection here, let me know if there is any improvement after running this tool.

Download and unzip BFUzip from http://www.merijn.org/files/bfu.zip
Run the program and click the Web button as shown here:

Use this URL to copy into the address bar of the Download script window:

http://metallica.geekstogo.com/MediaGateway.BFU

Make sure all IE windows are closed.

Execute the script by clicking the Execute button.

If you have any questions about the use of BFU please read here:

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

I want to make sure I'm seeing everything going on. Please go to Start>Run type msconfig press Enter and enable all startups by selecting Normal Startup - Load all Device Drivers and Services, reboot and post a new log.
