1463585 2019-09-04 09:36:00 Do you guys still check HJT for issues and advise what to remove?

Computer has been lagging to the mouse for the last 3 - 4 days .. wanna see if theres anything in there causing the problem

1463586 2019-09-04 20:52:00 It sure remains a useful program. Post your log. piroska (17583)
1463587 2019-09-04 22:34:00 Its old and no longer updated. Doesnt properly support Win7,8,10 , you'll get some strange results
Its still usuable though, possibly not as useful as it once was.

10's Resource monitor might show whats causing high CPU use/ HD access . Also add/remove programs & MSCONFIG can be a good start for de-cluttering

Is it only the mouse thats lagging . If you use the kb only (eg win key + I ) does that lag ?

1463590 2019-09-04 23:12:00 CryptoTokenExtension whats this .. I just spotted this while doing a reset of the browser Lovelee (6586)
1463591 2019-09-04 23:12:00 Its google chrome not responding :(

Chrome has a reset to default option. Do that first

I would remove IOBIT to start with .

Uninstall Winzip. Its not the same as the Winzip that we used to love. Its often flagged as Malware/PUP's
O23 - Service: WinZip Compression Smart Monitor Service - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\WinZip\WinZip Smart Monitor\WinZip Compression Smart Monitor Service.exe

Install Malwarebytes & do a scan. Then uninstall it. Make sure your AV is disabled while doing a Malwarebytes scan.
I'd bet your machine is full of PUP's . Hijackthis was the tool I used to run last after a cleanup.

1463592 2019-09-04 23:53:00 Ive been using OBIT for years .. in fact just updated it and run it .. I also run Advanced system Care .. just run that too

CryptoTokenExtension whats this?? It shows in the reset option for extensions .. but I cant find it anywhere else .. about to reset browser
Lovelee (6586)
1463593 2019-09-05 00:08:00 "Advanced system Care .."
say..no..more..
these sort of programs are generally garbage (just my opinion)


Reset Chrome
Run a Malwarebytes scan , get ready for a a shock as to what it finds
Dont waste your $ on IOBIT (my opinion)
1101 (13337)
1463594 2019-09-05 00:30:00 OBit uses the Bitdefender scan engine (thats a good point).
So could be better off just using Bitdefender, than than a AV/Malware protection product that just rebrands another brands product in a pretty wrappy

Also
"snake Oil" was mentioned :-)

If you're having issues, you need to Clean up things and remove bloatware and scamware .
