HJT fresh start
« on: January 23, 2006, 06:01:52 PM »
Ok I formatted both my hard drives and installed windows xp professional with sp2 on my 76 gb 7,200 rpm hard drive which is drive D:\ and left my 34 gb 10,000 rpm hard drive blank (drive C:\). I installed all the drivers from my motherboard cd, all the updates at windowsupdate.microsoft.com, ati driver for my video card, and a couple of programs on drive D:\ including: AVG anti-virus free edition 7.1, Microsoft AntiSpyware, Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird, and all plugins for Firefox including Realplayer, WMP 10, shockwave, flash, adobe reader 7.0, java, and quicktime.

So, so far I'm using on drive D:\ for anti-malware (76 gb 7,200 rpm hd with windows XP pro sp2, ntfs file system):

Microsoft AntiSpyware
AVG anti-virus free 7.1
Microsoft Firewall

Is that good enough to stop most threats? And what should be loaded at start up, both Microsoft AntiSpyware and AVG anti-virus?

I dunno what to do with the other hard drive (34 gb 10,000 rpm hd with no OS, ntfs file system). I was planning on putting all my games on there since it runs faster than my 7,200 rpm hd. My friend said that I should put Slackware Linux OS on it, should I?

Anyway here's my HJT log:

Looks good
I would include SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 however
Make sure to regularly check for HighPriority updates from Windows updates

You are controlling entries on startup
Hard to tell what you have disabled
I see a few running processes running
that usually have associated runkeys
I wouldn't disable AVG's email scanner with msconfig or MAS's entries
That's part of your protections

OK here's a new log with all startup items, which ones should I keep, and how do I delete the ones I don't want from msconfig startup?

Check within the programs and see if you can disable them on startup

Eg... O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "D:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot

To disable tkbell.exe in the new version (1) Start RealOne Player (2) Tools - Preferences (3) Automatic services in the Categories pane (4) Uncheck all options and then OK

Then have hijackthis fix that item

I would leave this one running
Microsoft AntiSpyware

Thanks for your help.

Do you know why I can't view videos on the internet, even with all those plugins downloaded?
