Is a program running in the background?

I wouldn't worry about what Registry Mechanic found
Personally, I don't use it, but I would remove it

Here's a quote from PCTools

Same registry error re-appears.

Please make sure you have the latest version of Registry Mechanic. See How do I upgrade Registry Mechanic?

If this problem persists, it may be caused by recurring invalid entries, which can be created by the normal operation of programs (including the Windows operating system itself). For example, when a program is executed, it may create files and place entries into the Registry that reference these files. When the program is shutting down, it may remove these files from your hard drive but not the entries that reference these files from your Registry, thus creating invalid entries.

Please run a test in safe mode to determine if Registry Mechanic is working correctly:

   1.      Boot in safe mode
      *When the computer starts back up, begin immediately by pressing the F8 key repeatedly until the Windows Startup menu appears with various options.
      *By using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard, select 'Safe Mode'. Do not select 'Safe Mode with networking' or any other modes.
   2.      Run a Full Scan and Repair.
   3.      Immediately after step 2, run a second scan (without repair).

I wouldn't bother, first note, ensure your copy is updated, your using version 6 and Reg. Mechanic is up to version 9
Also note: You do have Adobe Speed launcher running on startup
We can take care of that, but first

Can you reopen OTL.exe and click on the Cleanup button
Reboot the computer when prompted
Back in Windows

Can you run a fresh Scan and save logfile with Hijackthis and post the new log

P.S. when saving a screenshot, it's probably better to save in Paint rather than Word
Accessed thru Start>>All Programs>>Accessories

Ran OTL and cleanup.
Thanks for the advice on saving a screenshot.
I'll uninstall Registry Mechanic when we're done here.
Here's a new HijackThis log:

Sun Java installs a Quick Starter service to run on startup, you may find there is no need for it
I open the Windows Control Panel>>Open the Java Icon>Advanced tab>Under Miscellaneous untick Java Quick Starter
Apply and ok out of it

For other entries running on startup
Try startuplite. this link is near the bottom of the page
http://www.malwarebytes.org/startuplite.php

Take note of what it can disable running on startup, and how you can manually check for updates to some of your software
Here is more info

I unchecked the Java Quick Starter
I uninstalled Registry Mechanic
I thought I was good to go, but now, all of a sudden, I'm being redirected while in IE. IE goes to this site:


http://holiday-spirits.com/go.php?id=2001-...26aad4b&d=1

and I get the 404 not found message then I get a window saying I have a virus and various error messages.

[guestolo]

After reboot and opening IE received a message that IE was not the default browser. I clicked yes to make it the default browser.

That's normal, not to worry

Looks like you have remnants of Symantec's still in your computer
Can you do the following:
Go to START>>RUN>>type in cmd
Hit OK

At the command prompt, type
ipconfig /flushdns

Note: Single space after ipconfig, just before /
Hit Enter on your keyboard then exit the command prompt

Open Notepad (START>>>RUN>>>type in notepad)
Hit OK
Copy the contents of the CODE box, not including the word "code"
Paste it to the empty Notepad file
In Notepad click FILE>>SAVE AS
IMPORTANT>>>Change the Save as Type to All Files.
Name the file as fix.reg

Save this file on the desktop
Ensure to copy from REGEDIT4 and down in the code box

 

Code: [Select]

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center]
"AntiVirusOverride"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\security center\Monitoring\SymantecFirewall]
"DisableMonitoring"=-

Double click on fix.reg and allow to add/merge to the registry at the prompt
You can then delete fix.reg

Download and save to desktop the [color=\"#FF0000\"]Norton Removal tool[/color]

Run it and follow the prompts
Reboot the computer

Let me know how things are now running

[jjccp]

Ran all the above instructions and everything went smoothly.

So far everything seems to be running quite a bit faster than before.

[guestolo]

Go to START>>RUN>>Copy/paste the next command in bold

Combofix /uninstall

This will uninstall combofix and it's components

Download [color=\"blue\"]OTC.exe[/color] by OldTimer:

• Save it to your Desktop.
  
• Double click OTC.exe.
  
• Click the CleanUp! button.
  
• If you are prompted to Reboot during the cleanup, select Yes.
  
• The tool will delete itself once it finishes.

That should do it, post back in a couple days and let me know how things are still running

[jjccp]

Will do and thanks again for providing such a great service.
Best wishes,

Jim

As your problems appear resolved, I'll lock this topic
