Losing internet connection

[grahalex]

In the last few days my internet connection sometimes drops out, I'm with AOL and this hasn't happened before, can someone please check my HJT log to see if it's a software problem.

I'm afraid HJT is no good for finding software problems, it is only of any use when looking for malware\adware.

go to

http://www.virustotal.com/

browse to :- C:\ProgramData\SeekService\seekservice129.exe on your computer

upload it there and see the results,

It scans the file with 40 different anti viruses

post the results back here.

Hi Bricat, it might not be a software problem, is there anything there shouldn't be in my HJT log ?

[bricat]

that's why i asked you to check that file out, it might be dodgy.

Hi Bricat, couldn't browse to file in virustotal, but after looking up seekservice it seems to be a trojan and I have removed it, have to see if it makes any difference.Thanks for your help.
