Hijack This stops responding

I have been trying to run Hijack This on one of my computers. It starts the scan and then stops responding. Anyone have this problem? Any suggestions. I had run Hijack This on this computer before, so it worked at one time.

re-download hijackthis and see if that helps:

www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/hjt.zip
Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log, load it in Notepad, and copy its contents here. Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, don't fix anything yet.

Hi irelynnmisses,

Well, thanks for trying to help. It must be my computer that I am using. I have tried everything. I have downloaded and redownloaded. I even tried it in safe mode. Ran online virus scan, nothing. This computer I am using is old. I want to use it for helping with Hijack this logs and download all the tools on here, but I think I might just reformat the hard drive and start with a clean computer. The computer is hanging for some reason. Maybe I need to grab one of my other old computers and try. I am not really good with hardware issues but maybe that could be the cause. Who knows.

Hi, Could one of the experts please view my hijackthis log and let me know why I am getting popups,my computer is running slow and I am having a hard time connection to internet. I have run cwshredder, ad-aware, spybot and spywareblaster. I have run a security check on the symantec website and it said at one time that I had trojan.byteverify but after I ran some of the programs I mentioned, it comes up clean now according to symantec but I am still getting the popups and other problems I mentioned. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!! Thanks Sheri

Hey Sheri,

I know you didn't mean to use the caps. Smile

I will help you.

I may have given you the wrong link by mistake. I will quick check though.

taz71498 · Posted: Fri Apr 23, 2004 7:25 pm Post subject:

Sheri,

Your Hijackthis is still running in a temporary folder. You need to move it to, how about, My Documents. Run the program from there. The reason for this is that Hijackthis cannot create backup files while it is being run from a temporary folder.

When you do get the log please post it here:
http://www.computercops.biz/forum67.html Just before the messages start there is a button that says NEW TOPIC. Click on that and post your log there.

Thanks. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I don't know that much about computers. Sheri

I had the same problem when I first got HijackThis. The problem with mine was that my registry was a mess w/alot of corrupt files - turns out that somehow, in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE folder a file generated that disabled programs like hijackthis and ad-aware etc. I don't have the name of it anymore but it was in the form of .dll. I simply used a registry scanning application that professed to be top line at registry maintenance and cleaning and had a freeware trial version. It was 'CleanMyPC - Registry Cleaner 2.16'. If you Google for it you'll have more options to choose from as to what to use. But it solved everything and I have had no trouble with HijackThis since.

Good luck - hope it all works out for you.
