100% CPU usage freezes computer (HJT Log)

My machine usually stops after around 20 mins but this morning it would not complete the boot-up. Eventually I did 'get in' and run High Jack, but machine running very slowly.

I have also noted for some months now I cannot start my Internet Browser unless I wait for 2-3 mins after initial computer bootup.

Scans with AVG and Microsoft Anti-Spyware software are clear.

I have been advised via the Windows XP section of WindowsBBS to post the result of my High Jack Log in this Forum for further technical assistance.

Many thanks for your attention,
Ian.

Hi,
Looks like you did a good job, hang in there and one of the specialist will be with you a soon as they can...

 

You have Instant Access installed on your system. I recommend downloading both Spybot and Ad-Aware, both can be found on the Quicklinks page.
Update them both, do scans with them. Then please post a new HJT log.
More on what this is below.
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/dialer.instantaccess.html
It isn't a bad idea to uninstall Logitech's Desktop Manager, just take a look at all the protocols it has put on your system.

 

Hi, nargh.

Here is a link to detailed instructions for using Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware to scan your computer and remove malicious stuff.

http://www.windowsbbs.com/showpost.php?p=196764&postcount=3

 

That Instant Access is part of the Textbridge software, which is associated with a scanner if I remember correctly. Not a problem.

Please open Add/Remove programs and uninstall Logitech Desktop Messenger, unless you are fond of it and would rather keep it. Reboot.

Open HijackThis to the misc tools section and check the two boxes next to the Generate Startup List button, then generate a startup list and post the contents.

Please provide details of what other steps you have taken to correct this problem, as well as any other problems that may exist, even if you don't think they're related.

 

100% CPU usage freezes computer (Updated HJT log)

Hi Gents,

Many thanks for your help. I have done as suggested and downloaded and run Spybot & Ad-Aware. I have also, as suggested, uninstalled the Logitech Desktop Manager.

However I am still in trouble with either a very slow computer or at times (I am unable to determine why) a machine that stops working all together. Even the mouse arrow will not move across the screen. For some reason it is working OK now and allowing me to type this reply. I had to reboot twice to get this message completed.

Further help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Ian.

Here is my latest log file, which is now much shorter:

Hi Ian,

Sorry about the delay. I forgot to track this topic and failed to realize you posted.

The startup log looks pretty normal. Only one thing there that I question, and that would be a PendingFileRename entry in the registry. It's associated with Yahoo. Did you recently install or update Yahoo Messenger or Yahoo Mail Client? This type of entry is not usually present after such an update/install and a subsequent reboot, and may be a leftover. I doubt that would be causing the problems you described though.

Please click Start>run, type msconfig and hit enter. Click the Startup tab and uncheck everything except the AVG entries, click Apply and OK. Allow it to restart. Do the problems remain?

Have you opened up the case lately/ever and cleaned out the insides, including the fan(s) blades, with compressed air?

Is there an extremely long delay in any other programs starting upon logon, or is it just IE?

 

100% usage....

Hi noahdfear,

Many thanks for your reply. Presently I am unable to work on my computer as it is being repaired due to another (related?) problem. The display seized in a completly different way - strange patterns on screen but mouse control OK. Following an attempted recovery the machine would not reboot. When it is returned I shall be very interested to find out if it is completly repaired.

I shall keep you posted on results...

Regards,
Ian.
