I have a windows xp installation disk but I'm unable to reinstall it so I decided to give it another shot and finally was able to install and open Hijackthis. Anyways, everything is fine until it gets to 04 Registy and start Menu auto runs. It becomes unresponsive. Then I get a popup that says, "the action cannot be completed because the other application is busy. choose 'switch to' to activate the busy application and correct the problem". Then hijackthis freezes. If hijackthis scan did not complete, would a log still be saved somewhere?
My computer is incredibly slow. I can't use the internet. I did recently install a new ram stick. I removed it to see if that was the problem but the problem was still there after the ram stick was removed. And as I said before, I was drunk the night I was messing with services.msc. The only thing I remember is trying to remove bonjour and not being able to. Then I proceded to download some program that I can't remember the name of. I assume it is a virus though. I also downloaded winutilities on the same night. The problems began the next morning after I turned on my pc.
Also I'm currently trying to install mbam. I will write my rkill log out somewhere in this forum once I am able to open it. Combo-fix won't open btw.
