It seems like the problems just don't stop. Last night when I was using notepad, it started closing randomly. I thought I just needed to reboot, but today, when I went on my website, firefox closed! And all this is happening right when I'm writing my final paper...

Here's my hijack this log:

The problem seems to have subsided. I cleaned out my registry, and I heightened the security of my firewall.

Quick question: I program as much as I can, but I accidentally created a memory leak a few weeks ago. Could this have been the cause of my problem, and was cleaning up my registry the solution?

What ever you did worked.

For now submit a fresh HijackThis log for final review.

Thanks again!

Your log is clean.

Thanks for looking it over.

I wonder why I keep experiencing these elusive problems. It seems pretty unusual, and they're quite annoying. It seems that my computer is clean and I am no longer encountering any strange glitches, so you can close this topic.

Thanks again,
John

Glad we could help.

I have a program called S in the program control section of zonealarm. Is this something to be worried about?

And yesterday, my internet suddenly stopped working for a time. I rebooted twice and then it worked again... Is there another scan we could do?

If you click that S program what details do you see in the botton window?

There are actually four versions of it

etc.

Looking at it now, it appears that it is associated with visual studio 2005 service pack 1.

Correct nothing to worry about.

Good, there are a couple of other programs that I don't recognize:

This program are two programs that I made, but it shouldn't be in zone alarm:

Other than that my only problems are that my internet did not work the other night for a while. And windows update froze (but I reported the problem to microsoft and I was able to fix the problem by downloading a hotfix...)

I hate to take up your time, so if we close this and any problems return in the near future, could we reopen this topic?

At one time you have to give permission to Zone Alarm to accept these programs.
They are not causing any problems and should you use them again they will be accepted by ZA. So leave them alone.

C:\Program Files\Xinox Software\JCreatorV4LE\GE2001.exe
Google GE2001.exe and decide if you want to keep it.

C:\Program Files\EnglishOtto\uninstallotto.exe
His this relevent?

C:\Program Files\DISC\myFTP.exe
Google myFTP.exe and decide if you want to keep it.

I think you can delete it.

I keep my topics open for 10 day. Unless you have problems I will see what I can do.
I will not however search for programs on the web unless you have make an effort to search before.
My time is limited.

Should the topic be closed I suggest you start a new one with an appropriate title.

Everything is running smoothly, and I don't anticipate any further issues.

Thanks again.

Glad we could help.
