HJT Log for Friends Laptop

[HumanMage]

Ok, my friend asked me to check his computer for "viruses/things that would make his computer run slow" I could only find one thing that raised my eye, and that was this process "crss.exe" I looked it up on Google and i read it to be a virus/trojan/worm etc etc. Is that what this is? I couldn't get it removed with a Ccleaner scan or a Spybot scan..anyway, heres the log from HJT, its not that big, but I did get several messages like "denied access to host file" and "modMain_checkother1item()", which I didn't know what that meant..so heres the log:

Is that csrss.exe? If so, it's a legitimate file

I did get several messages like "denied access to host file" and "modMain_checkother1item()", which I didn't know what that meant..

That can happen if you run HijackThis from a Limited Account, but it won't affect HijackThis' ability to give us a log.

There's only one questionable item in your log, which is Viewpoint Manager.
Viewpoint Manager is considered as foistware instead of malware since it is installed without users approval but doesn't spy or do anything bad. It is known to be intrusive, but there is some possibility that it is now being used by those companies to give them info about your habits. It is not considered spyware since this is not clear, but I would not tolerate it on my machine if I didn't install it.

I suggest you remove it. To do so, click on Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs. Click on Viewpoint Manager and click Remove.

That aside, your logfile appears to be clean.

Hmm thats a relief...I guess I got worried over nothing. Reason I was worried, is because we both "share" that computer for school projects and stuff ( I.E. power point, excel, etc etc) as well as other items of personal use to both of us. I didn't want anything harmful to happen to those files. But by the looks of it, and from what you say...its clean. Thats a big relief off my shoulders haha...I'll be sure to tell him to keep an eye on what he views on the internet...Thanks very much for your help Ceewi, its nice to have people like you, and everyone else who helps on this section around just in case

P.S I did delete that one file as well.
