    Hello, it's me again... to stop me from posting several topics for my problems, I'll just stick to this one new topic for all my problems from now and on the future.

    February 24 2007:

    I seem to have acquired a virus or malware or whatever again. My Trend Micro PC-Cillin keeps on showing something about MS04-011, and that it has been blocked and what-so-ever.

    =========================================
    Also, aside from that, I cannot seem to open my Windows Firewall anymore, and no, I don't have any other firewall so it must be the virus...

    =========================================

    Another problem is that whenever I copy, paste, rename or do something likewise, Roxio appears and does something weird:

    =========================================

    Here I will now post my HJT and AVG logs just as anyone would request me to do.

    MS04-011 is a Microsoft security bulletin. If you go to www.microsoft.com you will perhaps get the info you need from their knowledge base.

    Somehow I'm having a small problem. My browser won't seem to open any sites except specific ones...

    Your HJT log is clean.

    The reason you can`t get Windows firewall to work, is because you already have Trend`s firewall running, which is a hell of a lot better than the Windows firewall, so don`t worry about that.

    As far as your copy and paste issue with Roxio goes, uninstall and reinstall Roxio and see if that helps.

    Run Windows updates and install any security updates.

    Somehow I have doubts in my Trend... it never defended my computer from anything before...

    How about the sasser problem?

    And the sudden "can't open" some sites like microsoft. So far this is the only site I can open.

    This is taken from your HJT log. It quite clearly shows you are running the Trend firewall. This will have automatically disabled the Windows firewall, as it`s designed to do. It`s not recommended to run more than one firewall at the same time, so forget about the the crap Windows firewall and continue to run the Trend firewall.

    C:\PROGRA~1\TRENDM~1\INTERN~1\TmPfw.exe
    O23 - Service: Trend Micro Personal Firewall (TmPfw) - Trend Micro Inc. - C:\PROGRA~1\TRENDM~1\INTERN~1\TmPfw.exe

    The clue is in the filename TmPfw.exe=Trend micro personal firewall.

    As regards your lsass problem, not to be confused with the sasser virus. Do like I said and run Windows updates and install all security patches.

    Regards Howard :)

    Something new:

    I have this thing in O17 and it never disappears no matter how much I fix it. How do I fix it for good Mr. Hopkins?

    Oh... so it's from the Phone Company...

    Now I have an even bigger problem...

    EVER SINCE I UNINSTALLED THAT DAMN ROXIO PROGRAM, MY WINDOWS WON'T START ANYMORE!!!! DAAAAMMIT!!!! AND I HAVE TO FINISH SOMETHING IMPORTANT ON MY COMPUTER RIGHT NOW OR IT'S MY JOB!!!! >.<

    THE WHOLE THING GOES TO THAT PART WHERE IT LET'S ME CHOOSE BETWEEN SAFEMODE OR NORMAL, THEN WHATEVER I CHOOSE IT WON'T LOAD AT ALL.

    IF I CHOOSE THE SAFEMODE, THOSE FILES APPEAR AND THEN AFTER A WHILE, CLINK! NOTHING!

    IF I CHOOSE NORMAL MODE, MY LOADING SCREEN APPEARS AND THEN AFTER THAT, CLINK! NOTHING!!!

    I'M SERIOUSLY GONNA GO MAD AROUND THE HOUSE IF I CAN'T FIX THIS BY TODAY! X_X

    That`s not good.

    Try doing a Windows repair as per this thread HERE.

    Regards Howard :)
  11. kerespup Newcomer, in training Posts: 52

    One question, if I do the windows repair, do I lose all my files?

    And... hmm... get the windows CD huh?... 3 day boat ride from here...

    ..........

    Time to sacrifice family to the Computer God by burning them on the stake.

    Anyways, back to my first question...

    If I do windows repair... does that delete everything?
  12. howard_hopkinso Newcomer, in training Posts: 25,949   +16

    All you`ll lose by doing a Windows repair, is any Windows updates you`ve done since installing Windows. In other words, you`ll need to run windows updates again after you`ve finished. Obviously, as with any major undertaking, backing up your important data is a sensible precaution to take. However, since you can`t get into Windows, I realise this may be difficult or impossible.

    Regards Howard :)

    Oh thank you for the advice Mr. Hopkins.

    tweaks_sav from in another topic I posted helped me out :3 It actually was coz of my CD Rom since it still had Roxio in its mind... x.x

    Waaaaaa!!!

    My problem just got EXTREMELY bigger!

    Because of my neighbors' welding hobbies, they ended up flactuating the electricity and made my computer's power supply break ;__; what's more is that my uncle says it affected the hard drive a bit...

    Does this mean that all my files disappear??!?

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
  15. howard_hopkinso Newcomer, in training Posts: 25,949   +16

    I sincerely hope you haven`t lost your data. :(

    You need to open a new thread for this problem in the appropriate forum.

    Good luck.

    Regards Howard :)
  16. kerespup Newcomer, in training Posts: 52

    Okay, well, our files didn't go missing, but now I'm experiencing low speed and the like. Here's my HJT log.
  17. howard_hopkinso Newcomer, in training Posts: 25,949   +16

    Go and read this thread HERE and see if it helps.

    If it doesn`t, please open a new thread in our Windows OS forum.

    Can't seem to access certain sites like Google and such.

    Ummm, the previous thing was a problem with the ISP

    but ummm... just to ask, where do I ask for some files to be scanned?

    I received this file from my "friend" who claims to have made this AntiSpyWare program.

    I just want someone to scan it for me, to be on the safe side.
