Well...[glow=red,2,300]YEAH!!!!![/glow]

just for Test purpose's try my cablenut settings....And,do you have TCPOptimizer?????

no router......i do have a firewall though,that's what probally kills my connection abit to

Well here are my cablenut settings,i guess if ur on the same plan as me,this may be of some help...

yeah,it figures,i have limewire too,you just have to make sure you scan what ever you download.I do recall trying to download this one program that was in .rar format,well it didn't matter how many times i tried to download it from other sources,the file itself was infected which in turn,other people downloaded it,and their pc's became infected.definitly do a scan on whatever file ya download ..etc...

Right on,You live in the T-dot......im In london,onatrio....... Hey,post ur cablenuts settings on here,you should be gettin way higher.

good man steven........all im sayin is that maybe that's the only option...if nothing else works...reformat...and remember,stay on top of that sh*it......scan for spyware/trojan's/ad-ware...etc.....maybe as much as possible. Lastweek,i had fix my friend tanya's pc......p2 400MHZ 128Mb RAM Windows 98 SE...... I've never worked on or seen a pc that had so many virus's/spyware/adware in my entire life..it's was the worst. I ran spy-bot,CWShredder,AVG,Registry fix,regcleaner.....problem after problem...even her TCP/IP STACK was damaged and she just got hooked up to the www and she couldn't do sh*t..and to top it all off,she didn't even have the windows 98 SE disk,it was a major pain,but, i got the disc for her,got rid of all of the virus's and finally earlier today i totally cleaned up her pc,she likes to download screensavers,she uses smileycentral,mywebsearch...all that crap.....etc So good luck,i know it's a major pain in the arse tryin to get to the root of the problem......later...........

Obviously you cannot delete explorer.exe. What I was illustrating is that there are trojans and worms that utilize these processes, as opposed to creating there own. It seems to me that that is exactly what was happening on supersteven's machine, as the problem was not evident in safe mode where some of these processes may not have been loaded. In situations like this, formatting and reinstalling the OS is definitely your best bet. We have exhausted many methods of removing the infection that did not work. It is likely a kernal-level virus that cannot be picked up by conventional means, if by any at all. Many people are scared of a rip and reinstall of the OS, but it's not that hard. Just back up your files externally, scan them before putting them back on the HD after the reinstall, and you're good to go. Nice, healthy PC. I never suggested that he actually remove these processes which in fact you can't because some of them are windows processes.What i was tryin to say is that if you go to that site i posted, http://hjt.iamnotageek.com/ it analyzes and parses your hijack this logfile.... ] ] It explains what could be a possible threat,what's safe and what's unknown. Don't tell me you guyz actually re-format????There's always a solution........Maybe im just lucky out of a 3 year span,i reformated once,reason,i had way to much crap on my HD,needed a fresh re-install. Personally,my best friend always re-format's his pc when something goes wrong,he never takes the time or paitence to actually figure out what's wrong.I actually find it redundant that he actually downloads whatever or put's any games or apps on his pc when he just re-format's his pc in a month or so,sound pointless right? And what i find ironic is that he also use's a ripped OS of windows 2000...hehe...i can definitly recall witnessing his pc reboot by itself after it's been idle for a couple of minutes.This is a guy who doesn't even use any anti-virus programs or even a firewall.....to funny.... You guyz definitly have to post ur Hijackthis logfile,im curious to see how many processes you are runnin,the most processes i run are about 16/17,my pc runs alot faster since i disabled alot of the useless windows processes and my connection seems to be alot faster too...check it out,it may work for ya......

I bet you all didn't know that Michael Jackson own's half of Sony...well at some point he did,i don't know about now....

i agree this site is great......but,im sorry to hear that you had to reformat you're pc. In the future,if you're not sure what processes are what and ya need to check out if ya have trojans/spyware/ad-ware,this site here http://hjt.iamnotageek.com/ will definitly help you out.it checks out you're Hijackthis logfile and tells ya what's safe and what's not...etc...... It definitly helped me out......

Maybe this might help ya out......I've got the 3000/384 connection and here's my cablenut settings.... You can even check out some of my previous posts to see what speeds i've been gettin......

Interesting.......i had the same thing happen to me before.When you're done scanning for virus's and malware...etc....and
