    Youve done what many people do on here (Though I dont know why), please post the DATABASE VERSION you ran

    Sorry, RIK you have lost me. It asked if I wanted to save a log, and I did and when I opened it, this is what was there. I may need a step by step idiot's guide to what I need to do, if you have the patience for it/me! :o

    Open malwarebytes, goto LOGS and post the top part (Which tells us the database version)

    Hi, sorry to jump on the back of someone else's thread, but saves starting a new one :)

    I was looking into expanding the RAM because my laptop is also running like treacle. So, I have done the malwarebytes and Hijackthis scans, so if someone could look at them please:) I'll post the HIjackthis in a separate post.

    BTW, I have a Gateway MX6933b, running XP


    Please start a NEW thread ticklemouse

    All that bit says is "The logs files list contains logs from both the scanner and the protection module. Double click a log file to open it."
    When I do this, it opens the file I have pasted, above. Do I need to run the scan again, and do it straightaway to get the required information? Thnaks for being so patient.:o

    It is the log youve posted, but you never posted the WHOLE log. The top part is missing

    You have got both 'microsoft security essentials' running and NORTON running
    Assuming Norton is out of date ~
    Use the Norton removal tool

    I might be wrong here, but jackieglasgow has posted a HijackThis log, aliEnRIK - I think you're confusing the log file with Malwarebytes.

    Im not confused but everyone else might be

    The log I require is the TOP part of the malwarebytes one. ALL I wish to see is which database version was used

    For example ~

    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.45
    https://www.malwarebytes.org

    Database version: 3948

    Windows 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2
    Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18904

    03/04/2010 12:29:17
    mbam-log-2010-04-03 (12-29-17).txt

    Scan type: Full scan (C:\|D:\|F:\|)
    Objects scanned: 198698
    Time elapsed: 30 minute(s), 28 second(s)

    Memory Processes Infected: 0
    Memory Modules Infected: 0
    Registry Keys Infected: 0
    Registry Values Infected: 0
