Default Please help-computer is running really slow, virus?

Let's clear out the programs we've been using to clean up your computer, they are not suitable for
general malware removal and could cause damage if launched accidentally and will help secure the work you have done.
.
  • Click START then RUN
  • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox
  • Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /u
  • Then hit Enter.
.
.
The above procedure will:
  • Delete:
    • ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
    • VundoFix backups, if present
    • The C:\Deckard folder, if present
    • The C:_OtMoveIt folder, if present
  • Reset the clock settings.
  • Hide file extensions, if required.
  • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
  • Set a new, clean Restore Point.
  • Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click System Restore
  • Choose the radio button marked Create a Restore Point on the first screen then click Next Give the Restore Point a name then click Create.
  • The new restore point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.
  • Next go to Start > Run and type Cleanmgr
  • Click OK
  • Click the More Options Tab.
  • Click Clean Up in the System Restore section to remove all previous restore points except the newly created clean one.
.
Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software.
  • Click Start Now
  • Check the box next to Enable thorough system inspection.
  • Click Start
  • Allow the scan to finish and scroll down to see if any updates are needed.
  • Update anything listed.


How is everything now?
