When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix logs. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.
To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

I have been getting Symantec Trojan Horse notices daily over the last 7 or so days. They read: Real time Protection Scan, Trojan Horse, C:\temp\$6DF16099.t$m, location: quarantine, access denied. The other five I wrote down read the same except for C:\temp\$563D46A8.t$m, C:\temp\$5C003D2D.t$m, C:\temp\$2F905956.t$m, C:\temp\$05D36D6E.t$m and C:\temp\AAWTMP\C12378929\277106\BitDownloadSetup.exe. I tried to delete the temp folder, but got an error message saying: "Cannot delete 3112, Access denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use". Someone said on another forum that deleting the temp file will not help. I use AVG, ZoneAlarm, Symantec AntiVirus and until a few days ago Avast when I deleted it. Could these be interfering with each other? Should I be using Symantec and AVG together? I have also run over the last few days: Spybot S&D, SpywareBlaster, CleanUp, CCleaner. I also use IESpyad, MVPS Hosts File and Winpatrol. I tried to run Ad-Aware a few days ago but got an error message. I don't remember what it said. Thanks for any replies. |

I am right now running ZoneAlarm, AVG and Symantec. I deleted Avast a few days ago. I received Trojan Horse warnings both before and after deleting Avast. I believe the rule is one anti-virus and one firewall. Therefore I believe I should be using ZoneAlarm and either AVG or Symantec, correct? AT&T Online Protection is also on my desktop. The pop-up blocker is on, but the anti-virus and anti-spy are "not installed". Should I delete AT&T Online Protection from my computer entirely?

the popup blocker is an IE helper and shouldn't conflict with anything but another popup blocker
use spybot's sd helper and immunize function but leave teatimer disabled looks like spywareblaster will conflict with 2 or 3 other programs -------------------- Chewy
life is like a box of chocolates and stupid is as stupid does but you can always run |
