| 423257 | 2006-01-23 11:23:00 | Ah ok then. Just make sure u install the motherboard drivers FIRST. Before u install any other driver. Some devices may or wont work properly without them. Whats the hardware in the system?? (ie: motherboard/PCI cards etc). And the CPU/speed, and amount of ram in the system. If it still freezes, it could be the hardware. Motherboard Chaintech Zenith ,CPU AMD Athlon xp 2200+ ,Ram 512, Card Nvida GE Force FX 5200 ultra. Also used HiJack as suggested to remove shost.exe as suggested but as soon as I delete it it appears again in Sys 32 and I cant appear to get rid of it also used McAfee Stringer 259 downloaded from McAfee to check for worms etc but it hasnt found any thing in c:which appears clean |

| 423258 | 2006-01-23 20:14:00 | have you tried an online anti-virus scanner, such as Trend micro's housecall (housecall.trendmicro.com/), or Panda ActiveScan (http:)? | Agent_24 (57) | ||

| 423260 | 2006-01-23 20:48:00 | Does anyone other than me think this is dangerous too? I rank this one right down there with BonziBuddy and Webshots: Incredmail |

| 423261 | 2006-01-23 23:30:00 | what's wrong with webshots?? i've never had any problems with it | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 423262 | 2006-01-24 02:59:00 | Webshots just burrows into the system and calls various things in to keep it company...like pop-ups, pop-unders, advertisements and little nagging things that tell you that there are "11,968 Registry Problems on your computer...just click here to repair it all" I removed Webshots from a friend's dual 'puters last week..it was a real mess...almost wanted to forgo it all and do a clean install. Almost as hard to clear out as AOL. :cool: Although they vehemently denied it, and I really believe that they don't cruise gamer sites, they had a robust dose of WildTangent there too..and guess what? I ain't gonna tell you that Webshots brought it in..cause you won't believe me anyway. :yuck: |

| 423263 | 2006-01-24 03:34:00 | Perhaps there is a new version of the webshots software that includes a lot of junk. I got mine over 3 years ago and i'm pretty sure its clean. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 423264 | 2006-01-24 04:55:00 | That shost entry may belong to this (www.sophos.com) Thanks for the help so far have used memtest result no errors done reinstall with just basic programs reinstalled used stringer a worm checker from McAffe no problems, full system scan with Kaspersky Virus latest version no problems used Hijack and tried to remove Shost.exe but cant remove iy.Havnt had a freeze up since I posted my thread Breaking down but think if it starts up again I need to have computer hardware checked. Have program called SANDARA which does hardware test of hardware. Would this help and perhaps show up if I have a hardware problem or is there better programs to check hardware before I start replacing items Thanks Speedy Regards Ron |

| 423265 | 2006-01-24 05:06:00 | No probs . Umm nope Sandra tells u whats in the system . It doesnt tell u what maybe 1/2 dead / dead / failing . I would check device manager see if any entries here have a X or ! beside them . And see if shost appears in control panel / admin tools/ services . If it does disable it . Then boot into safe mode and see if u can find shost . exe . Delete it . |
