unvise32qt.exe

I'm using a Dell PC with XP Pro. xysoft hasn't returned anything significant, but adaware found unvise32.exe which I removed using adaware.

Believe both are false positives.

http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-6132-0.html?forumID=32&threadID=124618&messageID=1412031

But it's hard to be sure just from the name.  You can submit the files to jotti and see if they are infected.

 

http://virusscan.jotti.org/

 

System Idle should run in the high 90s if you are not doing anything.  Following is my standard list of things to chack for slow PCs.

 


********************************
 If you mean when on the internet then just close Internet Explorer and run Hijackhtis (scan only) and check this line:

O2 - BHO: SSVHelper Class - {761497BB-D6F0-462C-B6EB-D4DAF1D92D43} - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin\ssv.dll


The BHO is installed by the latest Java program but on certain PC's it causes a big slowdown in Internet Explorer.  We don't know why.  We also don't know what the BHO is supposed to do but older versions of Java do not have this BHO and removing it doesn't seem to hurt anything.

If that does not help then:

********************

Start, Run, sigverif, OK.  When the new program comes up press Start and wait for it to finish.  Do you see wininet.dll?  Sort the list by date by clicking on the Modified column header.  Look for new files (since the problem started.)  What do you find?

Rightclick on the clock and select Task Manager then Processes then click twice on CPU.  The top process should now be System Idle with over 95% of the CPU Usage.  IF not what are the top three and what Percent CPU usage do they have?

If System Idle was the top process and was over 95% then Start, right click on My Computer and select Manage then Device Manager then find IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers and hit the + in front of it.  Find the first Primary Channel and double click on it then Advanced Settings.  If the Current Transfer Mode for device 0 says PIO then go back to the Primary Channel and right click on it and Uninstall then reboot.

You can also try RootKitRevealer from SysInternals and see if it finds anything:
http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/RootkitRevealer.html

It likes to find registry entries but ignore them.  Just look for files that end in .exe, .sys or .dll.

Also download and run blacklight
F-Secure Blacklight: http://www.f-secure.com/blacklight/try.shtml
 
click > scan then > next,
If any items show have blacklight rename them except for wbemtest.exe"
Do not rename "wbemtest.exe" it's a windows file
The tool will ask if you want to reboot (restart) choose yes.

check the event viewer to see if there are some services timing out.


Never hurts to do one of the free on line scans from Panda or Trend.  They take a while but are pretty good.

www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/activescan.asp?


http://uk.trendmicro-europe.com/consumer/housecall/housecall_launch.php (works with both java and activeX browsers)
or
http://housecall60.trendmicro.com/en/start_corp.asp?id=scan (activeX only, but with some extra useful option


Also Spybot S&D. 
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

AdAware. 
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/

Start, Run, eventvwr,msc, OK then select System.  Look for red marked events near the time of your last boot.  Doubleclick on one to open it then copy the text by clicking on the bottom of the three buttons then move to a reply to this post and Edit. Paste (or Ctrl + v).  Repeat for each different error.  (If you have multiple copies of the same error just post one copy and tell me you have 10 of these or whatever.)

Read
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/918165?
And see if your symptoms and the time they started match up with the time the update was installed.  Look in Add/Remove Programs in your Control Panel and check Show Updates to see when they were installed.
we are getting a lot of complaints about this upgrade even from people without HP software.  Supposedly a new version came out Tuesday and fixed the problem at least for HP and nvidia users.
