SysFader Freeze [HJT Log]

Every once in a while, Windows Explorer will crash and when I get to task manager, it shows (Sysfader) not responding and any folder I have open as not responding also.

As soon as I end SysFader, my computer unfreezes.

How can I disable SysFader or how can I stop the problem?

 

Wondering why

I do not have NVidia Graphics Utility.

I have ATI


To get rid of this problem all you need to do is this:
Press Windows Flag (Windows Key) + Pause break key. If you don't have the Windows key (most keyboards should have this - right beside the Alt key) just right click on My Computer and click Properties.
Go to the 'Advanced' tab
Under 'Performance' click on 'Settings'
Under the 'Visual Effects' tab uncheck the first four check boxes
These 4 boxes are "Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing ", "Fade or slide menus into view ", "Fade of slide ToolTips into view" and "Fade out menu items after clicking ". Please note that if you are running other localizations of Windows XP (for example Windows XP Portugese) you have to find the options that somewhat describe the options mentioned above, since they might not be the first 4 options.

I did that, although: if I go back into the settings they are checked again automatically

 

I am still looking at that thread.

I should also mention I have have IE 7.0 but mainly use Opera.

 

So many

So many **** threads, confusing, they all say pretty much the same thing.

And when was the last time I posted a hjt log?? I doubt I would really have spyware or a virus. I am running Spybot anyway

Of course, type sysfader crash into google and several come up but I would like stay with support from this thread because I looked at many of the others.

 

Spybot did not find a thing just like I thought

 

Requested

I did not do the online scans but will post HJT Log. I don't know what you mean by my signature

LOG REMOVED BECAUSE HJT WAS PLACED ON DESKTOP.

 

Wondering

Earlier today, SysFader crashed again and I ended SysFader. I did not restart computer so if it was something that ran in backround, I am not sure if it would or would not be in hjt log

 

ok

Later on today, I am going to run those scans and we will continue my thread then

For now, I must go eat my carrots

 

Slow Internet

I have a really slow internet at college is it ok to run just AVG ANTISPYWARE TRIAL

 

Well this is strange

While running AVG AntiSpyware Scan

A Found New Hardware Wizard bubble came up and said that it found MEDIA

It has been awhile since I installed windows so this is oddly strange

 

Well well well, looks like I did have a trojan

While scanning, NAV Corporate Tamper Protection kept recognizing AVG as dangerous so I mustd disable tamper protection.

 

Hi, sniper.

While you're waiting for expert malware removal guidance, please move HijackThis.exe (HJT) into a folder on your hard drive (such as C:\HJT\) instead of your desktop. Then run HJT again from that location and post a fresh log.

HJT reportedly must be in a new folder on your hard drive so it can create backups of its changes that you can restore in case things go awry with using HJT to fix items.

CAUTION: DO NOT have HijackThis "fix" anything without carefully following expert guidance. Otherwise, you might render your computer unstable or even unbootable.

 

It seems you never followed up on your previous HJT post.

By now, ms1033, you should know the procedure for keeping your PC clean after all of the HJT logs you have posted in the past several years here, G4TechTV, TechTV and other boards.

 

HJT Log in foler on drive c

Looks like even after removing that trojan, I still have the problem, it happened right before I logged in

Whiskeymany has pointed out that I still have reminants of aim crapware on my system, I am now using aim 6.2 but any

gets to confusing running 2 threads at the same time so I think we shall stick with the latest and if an expert sees reminants of aim, then we take care of it.

I can become paranoid but not always
