The computer does seem to be running a bit slower, have tried downloading spyware programs and things that claim they will remove but end up asking for $$.
Have searched for the ctfmon files and there are 3 in the system32 folder, one is ctfmon, one is ctfmona, and one is ctfmonb(the wallpaper image).
There are also 2 CTFMONA.EXE-0F567**** files in the windows\preftech folder.
My windows live mail has also stopped downloading new messages to the inbox folder for hotmail, not sure if related, but annoying all the same.
That's all i can think of for now as i don't have much time on my hand :) but PLEASE GUYS PLEEEAAASE help me, im a student in New Zealand and need my laptop so bad for study and i read that this thing can crash office programs like Word which is oh so important to me.

ctfmon.exe - system totally in a state

Problem Summary: ctfmon.exe - system totally in a state
We have Windows XP Home Edition. Have encountered many problems this week.

Here is a list of things we cannot do - just incase any of you may have some ideas/answers:

Cannot boot up in Safe Mode - get BSOD (blue screen of death)
Cannot download any security updates from Microsoft without an error
Cannot run or install AVG or Zone Alarm or any anti-virus and Firewall software except SpyHunter.
Cannot run or install HighJack This to get a system log
Cannot run any "fix pc" type software like CClean.
Cannot run check hard disk thing from DOS without a crash.

AVG and Zone Alarm were running fine a couple of days ago, then I downloaded some files from net - right clicked them to scan with AVG as I always do with all files I download. One had a virus so I deleted it without opening it. Next thing AVG and Zone Alarm had vanished from my system tray. I ran that virus check on Symantec and it said we had "Zlob" and "Beagle32". I manged to get a copy of SpyHunter and that installed and ran and I managed to get rid of everything except msxml3a.dll which was infected with Avenue Media trojan? SpyHunter kept saying that it would remove it on restart but couldn't. I just deleted that file in the end manually.

Now when I run the online virus check on Symnatec (did it again this morning) - no virus found. SpyHunter finds nothing too - except the odd cookie thingy as we are having to browse the net with no security.

I have a feeling that we have some hidden virus that is stopping us from running any antivirus siftware - why else would it keep switching Microsoft Updates off and not allowing us to run any security files? There is a file called ctfmon.exe that I cannot delete or disable from start up. I uninstalled Microsoft Office and that has a legit ctfmon.exe file. Raed on the internet that this file is a virus.

Please help me!

Sincerley,

Caryl
