This a HJT log from a Windows ME system I am working on. I have already done one log and cleared out 17 lines of malware. Here is the log:

Hi Steve.

The log is free of malware. However, any malware worth its weight won't show up in a HijackThis log.

What scanners did you run, and did you update them and run full (complete) scans if that option was available?

If you haven't already, update and run complete scans with SuperAntiSpyware and MalwareBytes (needs to be slaved for MB as MB won't run on ME).

[steveie85]

Haven't ran any yet, just trying to get this thing moving a little bit faster at the moment. I think there maybe some errors on the hard drive. I am letting the scan disk run right now. It has AVG 7.5 but that is old, I put Avast on for now. It is running a lot faster with just a few of the things I have done, and the screen has stopped shaking in the one corner, since I selected no grapichs accleration. I will report back with the results of the Virus scan. Not sure if there are any online scans that will work with ME, I know the new Kaspersky won't.
