Desktop Freezes and more


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

I followed the directions in the Slow PC start here topic, and my computer still has the following issues:

when you right click anything, it freezes the window that you right clicked in. The menu shows up after a period of time

Programs sometimes dont open when clicked on the start menu

Programs freeze and wont open randomly

Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

the only thing with high usage is the system idle process, which (based on my understanding) is just how much of the proccer is not being used (i think)

  • Root Admin

Please run the following scanner and send back the logs.

Download DDS from one of the locations below and save to your Desktop

dds.scr

dds.com

Temporarily disable any script blocker if your Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware has it.

How To Temporarily Disable Your Anti-virus, Firewall And Anti-malware Programs

Once downloaded you can disconnect from the Internet and disable your Ant-Virus temporarily if needed.

Then double click dds.scr or dds.com to run the tool, on Vista or Win 7 right click and select Run as administrator

Click the Run button if prompted with an Open File - Security Warning dialog box.

A black DOS console should open and run for a moment.


    When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:

    1. DDS.txt
    2. Attach.txt

  • Save both reports to your desktop
  • Please include the following logs in your next reply: DDS.txt and Attach.txt
    You can ignore the note about zipping the Attach.txt file in most cases.

If .com will not run either then your computer is almost certainly infected or at least damaged from an infection.

Here are the steps needed to get your computer cleaned....

OPTION 1

As we don't deal with malware removal in the

, you need to start a topic in the

  • Please read and follow the directions here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete.
  • After posting your new post, make sure under options, you select Follow this topic and choose Instantly,
    so that you're alerted when someone has replied to your post.

NOTE: Please do not post back to (bump) your topic within the first 48 hours.

Replying to your own posts changes the post count and helpers are looking for topics with zero replies.

If you reply to your own post helpers may think that you're already being helped and thus overlook your post.


    • If there is no reply from any experts after 48 hours, you can reply to the topic, asking for help again.
      Or
    • You may send a Private Message to a Moderator asking for assistance.
