I was able to run these programs less then a week ago, but not I am unable to. As well, when I try to load up my cd-burner, it says I do not have the rights to do so, but I know that I do have the rights. I installed their tool, changed the rights, and they stayed changed. I have already run an sfc /scannow, and reinstalled the application for burning cd's which I also used last time about a week ago. I have been fighting with this problem for a while now. I didn't think of HJT until now and am running it, I'll include a copy of the report in my next one reply to this Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 Scan saved at 4:25:14 PM, on 1/8/2006 Platform: Windows 2003 SP1 (WinNT 5.02.3790) MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP1 (6.00.3790.1830) Running processes: D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.5.0_05\bin\jusched.exe D:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winampa.exe D:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winampa.exe D:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools\daemon.exe D:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware-authd.exe D:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VMware\VMware Virtual Image Editing\vmount2.exe D:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\vmnat.exe D:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\vmnetdhcp.exe C:\Program Files\Trillian\trillian.exe D:\PROGRA~2\MOZILL~1\FIREFOX.EXE C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\JASON\DESKTOP\HijackThis1991.exe F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=userinit O2 - BHO: AcroIEHlprObj Class - {06849E9F-C8D7-4D59-B87D-784B7D6BE0B3} - D:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\ActiveX\AcroIEHelper.dll O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [sunJavaUpdateSched] "D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.5.0_05\bin\jusched.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WinampAgent] "D:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winampa.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [DAEMON Tools] "D:\Program Files (x86)\DAEMON Tools\daemon.exe" -lang 1033 O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [NeroFilterCheck] D:\WINDOWS\SysWow64\NeroCheck.exe O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.5.0_05\bin\npjpi150_05.dll O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Sun Java Console - {08B0E5C0-4FCB-11CF-AAA5-00401C608501} - D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.5.0_05\bin\npjpi150_05.dll O9 - Extra button: Messenger - {FB5F1910-F110-11d2-BB9E-00C04F795683} - D:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Windows Messenger - {FB5F1910-F110-11d2-BB9E-00C04F795683} - D:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe O16 - DPF: {17492023-C23A-453E-A040-C7C580BBF700} (Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool) - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=39204 O20 - Winlogon Notify: dimsntfy - D:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\dimsntfy.dll O20 - Winlogon Notify: EFS - D:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\sclgntfy.dll O23 - Service: Logical Disk Manager Administrative Service (dmadmin) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\System32\dmadmin.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Event Log (Eventlog) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: HTTP SSL (HTTPFilter) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\System32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service (ImapiService) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\imapi.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\msdtc.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Net Logon (Netlogon) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: NT LM Security Support Provider (NtLmSsp) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Plug and Play (PlugPlay) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: IPSEC Services (PolicyAgent) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Protected Storage (ProtectedStorage) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Remote Desktop Help Session Manager (RDSessMgr) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\sessmgr.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Security Accounts Manager (SamSs) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: Virtual Disk Service (vds) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\System32\vds.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: VMware Authorization Service (VMAuthdService) - VMware, Inc. - D:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\vmware-authd.exe O23 - Service: VMware DHCP Service (VMnetDHCP) - VMware, Inc. - D:\WINDOWS\system32\vmnetdhcp.exe O23 - Service: VMware Virtual Mount Manager Extended (vmount2) - VMware, Inc. - D:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VMware\VMware Virtual Image Editing\vmount2.exe O23 - Service: VMware NAT Service - VMware, Inc. - D:\WINDOWS\system32\vmnat.exe O23 - Service: Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\System32\vssvc.exe (file missing) O23 - Service: WMI Performance Adapter (WmiApSrv) - Unknown owner - D:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\wmiapsrv.exe (file missing) I'm going to do my own work cleaning off what I don't like, as there are some missing files, which is never that good. Anything that anyone could tell me would be apprechiated.
