need advice with antispywere
I think I got few spyweres on my PC and I need suggestion which antispywere to install on my PC just to check out. from time to time, my PC processor jumps to 100% at random, I am pretty sure it's the virus\spywere\something something evil of doom\ problem. my HDDs are also nearly full (roughly about 10% total is free) but I doubt that causes this problem. It's not a big problem, but it gets pretty annoying when PC slows down for a few seconds (specially when you are kicking your girlfriends ass in multiplayer )

Re: need advice with antispywere
haven't used d0w$ in years, but I always used to use; http://www.safer-networking.org/en/spybotsd/index.htmlhttp://www.ccleaner.com/also, low HDD space can cause fragmentation, thus slowing down I/O.... ...defrag your HDD.

Re: need advice with antispywere
thanks. I think I should go for HDDdef first, or simply install fresh XP, it's been a year now since I install this one.

Re: need advice with antispywere
With firefox and NoScript I only get som harmless tracking cookies. I'm just with my security. fuego wrote: Firefox with NoScript Avast Comodo Firewall SpywareDoctor (realtime) SuperAntiSpyware All free and no problems. Extras: Advanced System Care Professional fuego wrote: PS: I think SpyBot is outdated... and I read somewhere that u shouldn't use teatime function (can't remember why now?). Quote: Spybot - Search and Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behavior to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies.
Instructions - Install Spybot (Do not install the TeaTimer or SDHelper), select "Update", "Search For Updates", "Search", check the box next to each update and select "Download Updates". When this is finished go to "Settings", "Ignore products", "All products" Tab, right click on "Product", left-click on "Deselect all". Finally select "Search and Destroy", "Check for problems" and after scanning is complete "Fix selected problems". Tough to remove Malware requires a more thorough scan. Reboot your computer into safe mode by pressing the F8 key down during boot up and selecting "Safe Mode" from the Windows Advanced Options menu. In safe mode do another Spybot scan and remove the remaining Malware infections.
Advanced - For better detection but at the risk of false positives you can enable Beta updates: Go to "Mode" - "Advanced Mode", "Settings" - "Settings", "Web update" and check "Display available beta versions". Then run through the update steps again and run another scan.
Notes - The TeaTimer is a resident tool which perpetually monitors the processes called/initiated and changes to some critical registry keys. This is redundant to Windows Defender's superior and less intrusive real-time protection. The Immunization feature will cause IE8 to load slowly. (Microsoft) http://home.comcast.net/~SupportCD/MalwareRemoval.htmlI don't think the guide is updated anymore...

Re: need advice with antispywere

I installed few antispies, and they report few errors, but nothing serious. I think I found what is the problem, but I can't fix it, no antispywere detect it as problem. it's ekrn.exe file, this seems to be Nod32 setup file, but can also be a trojan. Not sure, checked the registry, it seems ok, but sometimes it uses 99% of CPU which is strange, it should use only 1% by default. I am lazy to reinstall windows, but I should do it soon, it's about 1 and half old installation.
