winlogon.exe virus & 100% CPU usage

[sanchezmp]

Hello everyone,

I am working on a WIN XP SP1 computer (emachine). it started running slow and i tried to clean it up with Ad-aware & Spybot. it helped a little.

I noticed in task master that IEXPLORE.EXE was running yet there is no browser open. i was able to load AOL security plus and ran the McAfee virus scan. it showed a virus on Winlogon.exe but was/ is unable to clean or delete the file. Sometimes it tries to delete the winlogon.exe but i don't have a system disk to load to replace the file. (i only have a restore disk).

Now the computer is running at 100% with the IE open, there also is CSRSS.EXE running at a high CPU usage.

I also do not have IE working, i think that is a seperate problem. i do have internet access via another computer in the home.

I have a Hijack this log file. i have never used HJT before so i hope i saved the log file correctly.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

The family got very impatient and opted to reformat and reload the operating system.

i was hoping to save the settings but could not hold off the hounds.

thank you and happy computing!
