Hi All,

my IE hangs my computer by using up 100% CPU whenever I try to open any webpage. I have run the hijackthis utility and attached the log file to this post.
(Also, yahoo messenger takes up 100% CPU when ever its open. both these problems started happening around the same time).

Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Hi Kritius,

Thanks a lot for the link.
I have gone through all the information and steps provided on these links.

In the whole process, no tool gave my any indication of any problem, but again, I am no expert. So, I will leave that for experts to figure out.

In the meantime, the problem that I am facing persists.
Anything other than Mozilla Firefox and Skype on my laptop that tries to connect to internet (IE, Yahoo Messenger, Adobe Updater etc) eats up all my CPU cycles (99%), leaving my laptop stuck with no control over it.

Hope these logs give some clue.

Thanks for all the help.!!

did you install

If not, then take steps to remove the programs located at C:\Program Files\Rational

Your AVG Anti-Spyware needs to be configured to take actions for things discovered, eg:
:mozilla.111:C:\Documents and Settings\mfasi\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\mfasi\cookies.txt -> TrackingCookie.2o7 : No action taken.
This is just a cookie, but you're going to want to act upon anything discovered

ComboFix has evidence that you have run VundoFix
and there are residuals from it and perhaps other things that may need attention:
\Temp\Perflib_Perfdata_7fc.dat
\WINDOWS\system32\tmp.reg
\Temp\hsperfdata_mfasi
\Temp\VBE
\Temp\plugtmp-3 and -1

you have Remote Desktop enabled and port 3389 is open
[HKLM\~\services\sharedaccess\parameters\firewallpolicy\standardprofile\GloballyOpenPorts\List]
"3389:TCP"= 3389:TCP:mad:xpsp2res.dll,-22009​
did you intend this?

you need this VundoFix to remove
