Hi technopandit,

What makes you think you have spyware on board.

Pieter

 

Hi,

Thanks for qucik response.

My system is working very slow. I am afraid some malicious s/w component is running in background. It may be antivirus s/w.

Regards,
Manoj

 

Hi Manoj,

We can a little deeper peek.
Download : http://tools.zerosrealm.com/dllfix.exe

Doubleclick it and install in folder of choice on the root drive, in your case C:\

Run start.bat and press option 1. 'output.txt' will be created in the folder

Post that report,

Regards,

Pieter
