Hi Guys,

My PC has been acting a bit differently lately so I'd appreciate it if you could give my lig a quick look over. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for posting, UKPunk.

The PGP Desktop encryption software is something you installed and use regularly?

I ask as it caught my attention by how it hooks into your Winsock, AppInit and other functions.

Hi Tarun,

I've only recently started using PGP. To be honest I don't really understand Winsock, AppInit etc. or what they do. I ran the usual checks before I posted the log and and CWShredder found CWS.Msconfig and removed it. But I sometimes still get an error message when Anonymizer loads on startup. I emphasize that this doesn't happen on every startup, perhaps just one in three occasions. Also, I've had two instances of "cannot connect to the server" on startup in the last two days. Yet when I've restarted the PC it's loaded as normal. Very strange.

If you feel those programs are not working accurately for you; then you may wish to remove them. Winsock is how your computer handles connections out to the Internet. I personally do not see a need for encryption software, but there again that's just me.

Your log is clean, so nothing to worry about there. I just had some concerns about how intrusive the PGP application is.

Hi Tarun,

Thanks for your help, it's always nice to know the system's ok.

Regarding PGP, I have an old friend who now lives outside the UK and he asked me if I would use it so that he could encrypt his messages to me and vice versa, as he doesn't want his wife to see them. This is because he is a bit of a naughty boy on the marriage front. And he can get away with encryption as he uses it for work.

Thanks again.

I don't mean to step on any toes here and hope 'Tarun' doesn't mind me adding this but your 'Java' is several updates behind and many 'Vundo' infections are caught because of this. Go to ADD/REMOVE Programs and uninstall ALL versions of Java.

Then proceed here - http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp and install 'Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 9'
