  Original title: cleaning your pc

  I need to learn how to remove trojan my computer files and the registry. There is a financial has now attached ittibu or something. and how to remove the event source errors and all that is connected to this.

  If you make financial transactions online and feel your system has been compromised, the more experienced people will recommend wipe you your HARD drive and reinstall your XP from scratch, but that is not always possible and of course is up to you depending on how you feel about this (you need to feel good about it).

  If you still think your system may be achieved a malware, I would do these things before you start any troubleshooting effort:

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:

  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  Download and run Hitman Pro here and during installation to be 100% sure to refuse the installation of toolbars, decline any e-mail options, nothing to do with Bing or MSN, perform a scan time, accept no e-mail and activate the free license:

  http://www.SurfRight.nl/en/downloads/ (make sure you get the free version)

  Download and run TDSSKiller from Kaspersky:
  http://support.Kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?QID=208280684

  The scans by operating clean, then to solve any problems.

  If you still think that you have any questions, then proceed as follows:

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  What is your Internet browser and version?

  Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  Do you see that you think not you should see and when you see it?

  What do not you think that you should see?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  If you need help interpreting your logs in Event Viewer, follow these steps:

  Here is a method to display specific information about individual events.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  The most interesting newspapers are usually the system and Application logs.

  Some newspapers such as security and Internet Explorer may be completely empty or have just a few items.  The default settings for XP wants do not connect all this activity, unless you need to solve a problem in these areas.  If you enable logging for them the papers fill up quickly and could adversely affect the performance of your system with all the extras (often unnecessary) activity.

  If you have Microsoft Office installed, it has its own newspapers, and they can be empty or occasional boring activity very little or, if there is no problem with your desktop applications.  It's normal.

  Not every event is a problem, some are informational messages that things work very well, and some are warnings.

  However, no event should defy reasonable explanation.

  Each event is sorted by Date and time.  Errors will be red Xs, warnings will have yellow! s.
  Informational messages have white is.  Not every error or warning event means that there is a serious question.

  Some are excusable at boot time when Windows starts.  Try to find only the events to the date and time around your problem.

  If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

  When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

  If you paste an event, it will look something like this annoying system startup event:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Service Control Manager
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 7035
  Date: 14/07/2010
  Time: 17:54:18
  User: Jose
  Computer: computer

  Description:
  The Remote Access Connection Manager service was sent successfully a starting control.

  To get a fresh start on any log of the event viewer, you can choose to clear the log (the log backup is available), and then reproduce your problem, then just look at the events around your show and troubleshoot events that are happening when you have your question.

  Hello

  • What were the changes made before the problem occurred?

  I recommend you perform the clean boot.
   
  Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

I try to avoid doing a factory reset:

  1. Cleared all caches the app using a cache clearing app application
  
  
  
  2. Updated all the apps
  
  
  
  3. A open the back and cleaned the contacts on the SD card and SIM card
  
  
  
  4. Tried different computers (mentioned above). In other words, it must be the phone itself the cause of the problem
  
  
  
  5. Motorola installed and updated the Device Manager
  
  
  
  6. From unknown sources in Android installation permit
  
  
  
  7. Ran an Android updates in the section of Android

  5. Put the SD card back in the phone
  
  
  
  6. Switch the phone off and on again
  
  
  
  7. Access the menu drop down. There should be parameters asking you if you want to use the SD card to the phone alone or other devices. Choose other devices.
  
  
  
  8. Reconnect the phone on the pc. You should now be able to access your files from SD card again.

  When I boot I get a box telling me to remove a reference to the START. EXE from the registry.

  Hi BARRYWHEATON,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

  3. What is the full error message that you receive at startup?

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

• The safest way to recover deleted music files - without the risk of my computer.

  My daughter deleted inadvertently about 200 songs from the computer hard drive... is it the software file recovery from Microsoft or from an outside source who would not compromise my Vista operating system, or other data of non-musique lost?

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• While the research on how to correct an error in the observer of events, W32 tried merging a .reg file and got an error message saying could not access the registry, why?

  Hello, I'm under win xp pro svc pk 3, ie 8, x32bit.

  I received an error in the Event Viewer system for time synchronization W32. Help box said not to worry if it's a computer for the home user, but I'm tired of doing all the time, every day, so I tried to find a way to get rid of it. On bing, I found the above Web site and tried to merge the nist servers in my registry but I kept getting msg. :

  Impossible to import c:\doc and set\adm\dsktop\timeservers.reg: the specified file is not a registry script. You can only import binary registry files in the registry editor.

  the first msg not acceding, and I guess it was because I had the registry open at the same time. Anyway after that I couldn't import, just add the items in the registry manually.

  My question is, really, was performed correctly by the copy of the list of servers of time in the text, paste it into a file and you try to merge?

  Appreciate any assistance with this issue.

  Just for info:

  If you see a message similar to the following:

  Impossible to import c:\Documents and Settings\Jose\Desktop\enableit.reg: the specified file is not a registry script.
  You can only import binary registry files in the registry editor.

  That means either that your registry import file is missing the top line (or it's the wrong syntax):

  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

  or the file you are trying to import is not a valid registry import file.

  It's a pretty popular mistake these days and sometimes easy to get running, but you also want to figure out how it happened.  I always suspect Symantec/Norton products with this error, but we'll see.

  If you currently or have already had a whole isntalled Symantec/Norton products, what are the names and versions (if you know).

  Other variants are:

  STOP: c0000218 {Registry file failure}
  The registry cannot load the hive (file): \SystemRoot\System32\Config\SECURITY or its log or replacing. It is damaged, missing, or not accessible in writing.

  I would start with a chkdsk/r since the recovery CD of Console you make (see below) and please answer a few questions...

  Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

  Please provide additional information on your system:

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  Fill in the blank: my system was working fine until this happened: _.

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  I decided to implement the points for a new puppy instead of a pony!
