I am not sure whether you noticed the message. In the HijackThis report Alberto posted to me there seemed to be some evidence of malware present on his system. -- Regards.

Kelly,
I'm not sure that getting the drivers for the Unknown adapter will work, but I will try it. I assume that since the printer won't work, and trying to "Copy" files to a backup drive doesn't work, that even if I have the drivers I won't be able to launch the update. I can open files, like pictures and such, and then save them individually to a backup drive, but not as a group using Windows Explorer. Nothing happens at all. BTW - I have posted the HiJack log to aumha and I might try bleepingcomputers as well.

Hi Gerry,
Yes, I did scan over it. Beings the adapter is unknown - made me think that it wasn't simply that the virus, etc disabled the adapter as I have seen happen very often. For it to be unknown means the drivers simply aren't installed. If it were listed as disabled then I would have focused back again to seeing the proxy over-ride via the HJT report and would have suggested both the LSP and WinSockFix. -- All the Best, Kelly (MS-MVP/DTS&XP) Happy Birthday if today is your birthday!

Hi Albert,
That would be the first place I would begin. I also noticed that your audio seemed compromised.

Kelly,
I hope I get this fixed before I have to travel from CA to Louisiana :-) I'm glad you spotted the audio; that is actually when all of this started. I called Emachines one night and after poking around the Tech tells me that the on-board audio can sometimes die. I tried to install a Soundblaster card but that failed. I realize now that it probably had to do with the Cryto service not working so it couldn't/wouldn't load properly. It is also around the time when the MS security updates started failing to install. I will try to run the reg update you have tonight - is there anything else you can think of to try regarding all the services being shut down, or do I just wait for the results of my HiJack This log to be checked?

Kelly, I downloaded the reg file to a USB stick at work and brought it home; I cannot copy & paste any files anymore, so I ran the EXE from the stick. I couldn't detect any changes, or writing of entries, although I did get a popup asking if I wanted to make a registry change. Nothing new on the audio situation though - when opening "Sounds" from the Control Panel it still says audio not installed (or not found) and I have no "sounds".
