Hi all,

Does anyone thats using Comdo Firewall get what i assume is checkdisk.exe (chdsk.exe i think, summit like that anyway) asking to connect to the internet, its just started asking today again, i get Comdo popping up saying that checkdisk.exe a parent of internet explorer is wanting to connect or something, and saying some guff about ie being a safe app or summit, but when i just click deny i get a minimized server could not be found or summit box in the startbar, then if i maximise it to see what it is, it goes full screen, covers everything and is just the page cannot be displayed job, so i have to get the Task Manager up to close it, and also everytime i restart my PC i have to relogin everywhere again, its like all my cookies are getting cleared or something. :confused:

I did have this same thing about 2x days ago, i adware scanned/virus scanned etc... but found nothing, so i decided to do a full format reinstall, that worked for about 2x days, but come today i turned on, and im back to having to login everywhere again all the time i restart, and the chdsk.exe has started again as well.

Anyone got any ideas wtf is going on, i really can't be bothered with another reinstall, as it only worked for 2x days the last time, so chances are it'll be ok again for a bit, then start again.

Thanks. :)

Sorry about that its the Firewall im running, ive never ran a checkdisk, must be someting to do with Comodo still learning, as it just pops on asking of its own accord, ive never ticked the nerver ask again after i deny it, as im not sure why its asking, i wanted to find out first. :)
 
Hmm odd, well im baffled here, i fully uninstalled Comodo, but its not that, ive still got to login again everytime i restart. :confused:

Im wondering if im picking something up from a website or summit, as i went to this site beofre and it kept opening new windows of things even though ive got a pop up blocker, so these windows must be able to bypass it somehow, thats all i can think it being as i remember it started not long after if it did, then after id done my format, reinstall, id forgot and went to that site again, but when it started opening the otehr windows i remembered so closed em off, then it was not long after that again my login prob started again, so i wonder if its that site doing summit.

Well this is odd, someone told me to try Firefox2 to see if that does the same, well ive put it on, restarted, and nope, im still logged in fine using that. :confused:

so Firefox2 is working fine, but my explorer isn't. :confused:
 
No never changed anything at all, i just turned my PC on today and i had to log in everywhere again, and i have to do it everytime i restart.

It started a few days ago but i formatted and reinstalled again, then it was fine for a couple of days, then today when i switched on i was back to having to login all the time again.

Im wondering if im picking soemthing up from a website or summit, as a few days ago i was looking at these thumbnail pics, when i clicked on em they started opening in another window, i think it was an image site they were hosted on, but i also got other windows starting to open which my popup blocker never blocked (which i thought was odd), so i just closed em off, then me login prob started a few days after that when i turned my PC on one day, so i formatted, reinstalled, but the other day i clicked on some more of these thumbnails as id forgot about the other windows, then when the other windows started opening i was like ahh damn forgot about that, and closed em down again, now not long after i done that, my login probs come back. :confused:

Yeah ive virus scanned, ive used Adware SE, ran em in windows, safe mode, all updated, and nothing comes up, so thats the only place i can think off thats doing it, as i only clicked on these thumbnails about a week ago, then i got me login prob few days later, so formatted and that as said, was fine, then i forgot and clicked on em again, now login probs back. :confused:
 
Right well i done a hijack this log and posted it in that link you gave, posted it in and clicked analyze, but i don't know what happens next, does it appear a the top of that list then it gets looked at and i get a safe or whatever like is already there next to some others.

Thanks. :)
 
Is that on that website, as when i pasted my log into the box i clicked on the analyze and it appeard in the top of the list where the othere are, i says actions, has my entry log, then it says kind, which has a big green tick in it, and when i hover over it it says safe, has a visitors assessment, and an information column.
 
Right ive just been asked to let that checkdisk.exe thing use the net again, so this time i just clicked allow so i could see what it was, and it loaded up some like shopping search page with loads of categories on the left and that, so there is summit in there, and its called chdsk.exe i think can't remember.

Yeah i know checkdisk is safe, its somehting called that i think, i can't remember now, was something like chdsk.exe or summit, then wehn i allowed it access this time, i got this big shopping search page fill my screen, so i had to task manager to close it down again, im doing a search at the mo for it on my drives, adn i just can't find the bugger, thought if i could find it i could try deleting it, but i spose ill ahve to wait till it pops up again on Comodo asking for access so i can deffo see what its actually called.
 
Yeah i have, but there is something definately on here, as when i let Comodo allow whatever it is that keeps asking, i keep getting a big shopping search page open up, like a search directory page.

i never ticked dont ask me again so it will pop up again asking, so im gona write it down this time, then do a search and see if i can just delete it.

Now i do suspect its coming from that site i wa trying to view the thumbnails from, as it wasn't long after i tried to open em that i got this happening, then after a format and reinstall it was working fine again, then i tried some more of them thumbnails again as i forgot, and lo and behold my login prob and me chd.exe or whatever it is is asking again, and when i restart ive got to keep logging in everywhere again, so i think its those popup windows that keep trying to open when im trying to view them thumbnails as bigger pics. :rolleyes:

Hmm so it could be those thumbnails then, strange as they aint britney or nowt, but that link there you gave says summit about the page i was looking for has packed its bags and gone, and is now like directory page, and thats sort of like the directory page im getting, but its called shopping and has different categories down the left, and opens full screen.

Ive never had any of that stuff going on above, least i don't think anyway.

Thanks for that. :)

so it could be in one of those thumbnails ive been clicking on, like i suspected.

Spose i better do another format/reinstall and remember those thumbs. :p

I will be doing a reinstall myself tonight as all the overclocking attemps have taken its thole on the OS.
Oh you may already know this but after you have done the activation over the phone you can then do another unspecified amount of reinstalls and activate over the net again.

Ahh cool thanks for that aswell, i must remember 'NOT THOSE THUMBS'. :D

Thanks again. :)
 
Well thats me done, tried a couple of restarts and im still logged in, mind you ive only tried here for now, but it must have been something as that chkdsk.exe or whatever it was (i do suspect it was that) was openening one of them stupid search directory pages when i allowed it access, so there was definately something in there. :)

I just wonder why nothing picked it up, no virus scan, no adware etc... scan, nothing. :(
