Full Version: Comp keeps freezing

Ok. I recently downloaded an update for zonealarm. From what i could tell, before this, the comp was fine but now it seems to freeze a lot. Whether its to do with zonealarm or just coincidence that they both happened at the same time, i dont know.

A program did appear called lsasss.exe and also an ftp program tried to load. No idea what these were or where they came from. Never noticed them before so i got rid of them in hijackthis. My comp still seems to freeze though. Doesnt seem to be a problem if i am offline, only when i am connected to the net.

Please could someone help as i am unable to figure out what is causing. Also, I know that perfect keylogger is running, i installed it for my own peace of mind. Thank you. Here is my hijackthis log

Your log is clean. If you have upgraded to ZA verison 5.0, there have been several problems reported. You can check the Zone Alarm support forums ofr BroadBand Reports in the Security Forum for more info.


In the meantime ...

Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future.

1. Visit Windows Update:
Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for your operating system and IE. The first defense against infection is a properly patched OS.
a. Windows Update: http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

2. Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned ActiveX controls) to 'prompt', and 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'disable'.

3. Download and install the following free programs:
a. SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
b. SpywareGuard: http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareguard.html
c. IE/Spyad: http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/resource.htm

4. Install Spyware Detection and Removal Programs:
You may also want to consider installing either or both of AdAware (free version) and Spybot S&D (freeware). Use these programs to regularly scan your system for and remove many forms of spyware/malware.
a. AdAware: http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/
b. SpyBot S&D: http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en&page=download
