Maniac. I installed avast today to try to help me with this particular situation. I have been running zone alarm for its firewall only (no antivirus protection) and actively running AVG for its antivirus. So, just one antivirus program was running before this issue. Is avast better than AVG for antivirus protection? If I uninstall zonealarm firewall, what do I protect myself with regarding programs trying to conact the internet/bad people trying to get to me via the internet? Thanks Steve

Windows 7 Firefox My computer got really really slow. I tried to go to Task Manager, but it would display for a second and then disappear. I did not have admin access to do some things. Prior to running the MSERT (see below), I got a blue screen memory dump error. Ended up downloading and running the following: Search and Destroy (it gave me a series of errors, but it did do the scan) Hijackthis Avast Free Malwarebytes TSSSkiller RSIT (log attached) MSERT (miscrosoft's tool) CCcleaner MSERT said it found a Java exploit and removed it. Log files attached (event from RSIT). Computer still seems slows. Also strange that my ZoneAlarm is warning me about everything now (i.e. I am installing Pinnacle Studio video editing software and I get "setup launcher unicode trying to launch c:\windows\sysWOW64\msiexec.exe or use another program to access priviledged resources"); it did not used to give me so many warnings. I did not make any changes to zonealarm. Note on Hijackthis.... I get an error that the Host File Directs. Also, there is the O18 Filter Hack. Any advice would be appreciated.
