Hi to All,

I think I have a virus, and hope someone can make that determination for me.

The System is:
Dell Inspiron 8000
Windows 2000
Service Pack 4
Firewall - Comodo Firewall Pro
Anti-virus - NOD32

Details:

The computer started to hog all the system resources after I installed Comodo to replace Norton Internet Security 2006.

A file called "RxMon.exe" was loaded with the Dell Resoloution Assistant as the Path.

I deleted this file (file shows as missing in the HijackThis Log (below) and the Task Manager returned to an 'at rest' condition.

I have run an in-depth scan using NOD32 and it only reported finding tracking cookies.

I have used the Norton Removal Tool, but it still looks like something Norton is being loaded on boot.

I also ran Uniblue Registry Booster and it showed 582 "Problems"

Before doing anything else, I uninstalled Uniblue, but it still looks like it is loading.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and trouble.

Best regards,
Steve
