491511 2006-10-15 00:37:00 Every time I start up my computer (running XP Home Edition SP2) up comes a splash screen advising me that Windows cannot find the following file C:\WINDOWS\is-K3Fou.exe, have done a Google search on this file with no result, have run a virus scan (Kaspersky) and an anti spyware scan with no result, and a search of my computer with Search companion,still no result, any advice appreciated, tks. jimjam (3259)
491512 2006-10-15 00:44:00 Get hijackthis (www.merijn.org)

Unzip it then run it then click on scan and save a log. Post the log here.

Or/and get ccleaner (www.ccleaner.com)

Download, install, run then click on tools/startup. See if that entry is in here.

491513 2006-10-15 01:08:00 Nothing in the Tools section of Crap Cleaner but herewith the Hijackthis log, as you can see, C:\WINDOWS\is-K3FOU.exe does appear, is it safe to delete it ?, incidentally, a lot of the Software that appears in the log I thought I had removed,obviously Add/Remove does not clear everything out. jimjam (3259)
491514 2006-10-15 01:09:00 Post ALL of the log here Speedy Gonzales (78)

491516 2006-10-15 01:42:00 First I would uninstall all of those antispyware programs.

You dont need all of them.

And just use something like Spybot or Adaware.

Are programs actually working on this system? Or are u stopping them why, there's so many entries in startup, which look like theyre not installing or completing the install.
Speedy Gonzales (78)
491517 2006-10-15 02:05:00 Most of them I have, why Pest Patrol et al are still showing up I have no idea, I thought I had removed them some time ago. At the moment I am running Adaware, Spybot S & D, Spyware Blaster and an evaluation version of AVG Anti Spyware which I downloaded in order to find out if it could give me any info on C:\WINDOWS\is-K3FOU.exe (which it didn't), all appear to be running OK. I still have no idea what C:\WINDOWS\is-K3FOU.exe is and would like to delete it, but hesitate to remove it without expert advice. jimjam (3259)
491518 2006-10-15 02:28:00 I would run HJT again tick these entries and tick fix checked

Those entries in startup, look like something is screwing installs up.

And they're in startup to resume or something. Or there's something seriously
wrong with your system.
