Process Explorer is definitely a big savior for me to really undestand which process is going crazy. I really like the feature where you can even see the # of threads and context switch for a particular process.

May I suggest that you add to your list ‘Rootkit revealer’ free from Sysinternals which, as the name suggests, reveals if there are any rootkits on the system. These could hide some trojans etc. and won’t show in msconfig or be found by AVG or Adaware. If you find any get Ice Sword (a nice free utility) to get rid of them.

If it was crap preinstalled with the system (like with most laptops when they are new) i would run Decrapifier, it will delete all the norton, toolbar and other promotional crap from your computer.

Nine out of ten occasions I’ve faced a problem like this, I’ve resorted to reloading of OS. Here is a much detailed drill. I’ll remember this next time I face a problem like this.

Thanks.

I’m sorry, but nowadays, spyware and adware propagates so fast now, it outruns the ability of anti-malware vendors to update the malware definitions. I have to say that as soon as you’re infected, there’s no way to completely remove them just of the sheer fact that malware has become more advanced. If you have become infected, you can only format and reinstall windows and then try not to do things that get you infected.

Nice . AVG is rocking since it had joined with Ewido and using their spyware technology. Don’t go for AVAST, coz its not like before, their definitions are very weak and not working well. AVAST rating has been down to 13th place whereas AVG stands in 4th place.
CCleaner is another best utility a must for every system to clean unwanted junks, caches, cookies etc.
