Log File Review....Problems with CPU Usage Overload 100%
Can someone please take a look at my log file and help me....my computer is riddled with problems....I have been using CA EZ Armour Antivirus and it has been extremely poor. My computer began running very slowly and my CPU usage was peaking at 100%. I decided to try Kaspersky Anti-Virus and my computer came up with approx. 60 different trojans and viruses. I seem to have that under control thanks to Kaspersky....currently running another full system scan that seems to take a few days with Kaspersky.
I was hoping someone could help me clean up my log file and make some suggestions. I used Hijackthis to generate the log file and don't want to delete things that might cause me more problems.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I currently use Spy Hunter....is Lavasoft ad-ware a better product???
I have not used Spy Hunter before. I like Ad-aware because it seems to work well and it is free. I don't know how it compares to Spy Hunter, though. Were you able to remove the entries marked as nasty?
Jeremy....yes I was able to remove them......my CPU usage charge is way down.....jumping between 30% and 70%....so we are definitely on the right track.....my applications are opening extremely slow.....any other suggestions?
Thank you very much for your time and help!

There may be some processes still running that is causing a slow down. If you aren't running any applications the processor usage should not be that high. Try starting in Safe Mode to see if the same problem happens. You may also want to scan your system for viruses and spyware while in Safe Mode. If the same problem does not happen while in Safe Mode then there is a service or process that is still consuming the processor time.
After scanning for viruses and spyware in Safe Mode, run HijackThis again and post your log file again.

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
