IE6 (XP SP2) hangs all apps (100% CPU) on each page load
At first I thought it was just eBay being busy but I opened Task
Manager and watched iexplore.exe jump up into the high 90s each time I wanted to eother reload a page or surf somewhere else. I run AdAware and Spybot at least weekly, and have disabled most of the Add-Ons in IE. This has been going on a long time and is of course negating the whole DSL thing, it is taking some pages up to a minute to load, during which time I get the white-rectangle "not responding" icon and anything else I may be doing on the computer hangs as well while IE eats up the CPU, then it drops back suddenly. Anything else I should be looking for? Any help appreciated. |

That could be an indicator that BHO's are busy doing something each time IE
loads, an new IE window open, etc. Get and use a tool that'll let you browse your list of BHO's and installed activex objects. Uninstall any that you can do without or that you don't remember installing intentionally. "Chris/Power Salad" wrote in message ...

Just don't post the HJ logs here - there are a zillion on-line HJ forums specifically supporting the posting of HJ logs. It's against the groups charter to post HJ logs. This does not answer my question. I asked whether I should run a HJ log or not in this instance based on the problem I'm having. If anyone has any constructive help to offer I would appreciate it, thank you. |
The links Leythos lists in his reply further down are good.
I've never used HijackThis, so i couldn't recomend much from its logs. I do use Spybot Search & Destroy and can say that it's a very good good resource. and can show you your startup items, BHO's, installed ActiveX, running processes, Hosts file, etc., so you have a chance of identifying unknown software. Spybot can also, automatically, block attempts to automatically install known malicious software and block redirections and the such, to known dangerous websites But Spybot doesn't detect everything, so you should use multiple programs with overlapping protection. You can use Spybot to identify programs that load unknowngly, by viewing the Start Up Item & BHO's tool, then locating the files and viewing thier properties. Any files that have no Version & Company info listed can be manualy moved to another folder, where they can't be found be the system and loaded, until you're sure that deleting them won't have negative consequences ( i.e make sure the folder you move them to isn't listed in the PATH enviroment variable ) You can use the google toolbar to block pop ups and I'd suggest that you either disable .hta's or the Windows Scripting host, since IE can be tricked into running them.
