Re: Help!! CPU running slow, yellow triangle w/ exclamation pt and constant pop-ups

Hello and welcome to TSF

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad in order to assist you when carrying out the following instructions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please follow all instructions and in which order they come,if you have any questions,please ask before proceeding.

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

P2P

P2P - I see you have P2P software <Ares 1.9.7,BitTornado 0.3.9,BitTorrent 3.4.2>) installed on your machine. We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It may be contributing to your current situation. This page will give you further information.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spywareguard

Please disable Spywareguard, as it may hinder the removal of some entries. You can re-enable it after you're clean.
  • Right click the running icon of Spywareguard located in the system tray
  • Go to Menu > File > Exit and confirm the programs close.


Ewido

*Open Ewido by double-clicking the yellow 'E' icon in the system tray.
*In the 'Your security status' section, toggle the Ewido Guard realtime protection 'off' by clicking 'active' which will then change the protection status to 'inactive'.
*When you reboot, Ewido will prompt you as to whether you would like to "Restart the guard?".
*Reply 'no' and set it to 'inactive' for the duration of your cleanup.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Downloads

You may want to print out these instructions for reference, since you will have to restart your computer during the fix.

Please download FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/file...Fixwareout.exe

Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

Once the desktop loads a text file will open (report.txt), you can close it - the file has already been saved.

Open Hijack This and click on 'Do a System Scan Only'. Check the following entries if found (make sure you do not miss any)

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{9A8263D9-14C4-47C3-85CB-BB6E08033BE1}: NameServer = 85.255.114.27,85.255.112.89
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{F191F77D-DE21-46B2-8C44-C9B6A0810F41}: NameServer = 85.255.114.27,85.255.112.89
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\Parameters: NameServer = 85.255.114.27 85.255.112.89


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