    Did you try defragmenter I linked to?

    Any programs you installed are entirely optional for your removal. I cannot say which ones to uninstall as you may actually be using them :).
    Take a look at the list and decide on which ones you no longer use and uninstall.

    I am running diskeeper lite, Is it okay to let the defragmenter run for a whole day??
    By the way, did you discover any viruses attacking my computer in Combofix log??

    It is ok to let the defragmenter run all night.

    I would not uninstall any security updates, nor Java or .NET framework programs.

    Combofix deleted several files on it's first run.

    I really have problems for diskeeper lite. My parents WON'T LET ME to run the computer whole night and it need full version (which is needed to PURCHASE) to use 'set it and forget it' function. They don't know what is disk defragment and they thought it is a VIRUS!!!!! ARGHHHH! how should I explain to my parents??????

    The diskeeper I linked to is a free version. It tells you that on the download page.
    Explain to your parents that it is not a virus and that it needs to be run until the hard drive is defragmented. The longer the period between defragmentation, the longer it will take to complete.
    The alternative for them would be to reformat and re-install Windows :).

    Yes it is indeed a free version software with limited functions.........
    They won't believe what am I SAYING!!!!!! They will always thought that everything I do is to HARM the computer, not MAKING THE COMPUTER FASTER!!!!!!!

    Now I am running diskeeper now....... without letting my parents know.........
    From 12.15p.m till now, the progress just reached 19%, and it frees up SOME hdd space.... :)

    sorry for my late reply. I've run diskeeper, and done some registry editing, now my computer is running better than before. Since I'm thinking to buy a new computer next year, so i don't think I'll do anything again. And I'm using Internet Explorer 8 instead of Google Chrome, as google chrome eats up a lot of space........

    Most importanly, wuauclt.exe is now working in normal parameters (76K-300K)^^ and I think my problem is solved.......

    thanks crunchie~

    You are welcome :).

    To remove all of the tools we used and the files and folders they created, please do the following:
    Please download OTC 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.
