    Hello everyone

    I am new to this site and I am desperate. I cannot get rid of the searchportal web site. I ran adaware, spybot, hijack this (many times, index.dat suite. I thought I deleted all the CRAP on both my husbands and my log in accounts, however, once I reboot into normal mode it comes right back! HELP!

    we'll ask you for your log when needed.

    Judging from what you posted , it looks like you didn't do the whole tutorial. It takes a while, I know, but it will help. I didn't see any of the online scan objects in your log which leads me to believe that you didn't perform them??

    I have successfully removed the highjacker, however, now my desktop does not have a start icon and I cannot log into my husbands log in account. I followed your instructions verbatim. Help

    Hi Keels,

    It is very important that you run through the Cleanup Tutorial for ALL user accounts.

    Are you able to get into Safe Mode and access all accounts?
    System Restore Off?

    Do as much as you can and keep us posted. Somebody will check back when they are able.

    Hang in there :)

    hey there

    I finally deleted (i hope) the highjacker from all user accounts. I can't seem to restore my system. I am back in normal mode, right click on My Computer and properties there is no restore tab. My desktop does not have a start icon, I cannot access my husbands user account, and my computer is acting funny-it's very slow to log on and I can't perform certain functions on the internet. ie I tried to copy a page off this web site and it would not let me.
    Please help.

    Hi Keels,

    Please attach HijackThis Logs for each account as per these instructions:


    Note that your HijackThis should be up-to-date (v1.98.2) and MUST be extracted to its own safe folder – C:\Program Files\HijackThis!

    If you need a Fresh Download of HJT, get it HERE: HijackThis 1.98.2

    Also note that, before you scan, you MUST close all running programs including your web browser, e-mail and items in the system tray.

    Please save your HJT Log as a .txt File and attach it via the "Manage Attachments" tool in the Additional Options section when you post.

    I'm tied up with work these days, but somebody will take a look when they get a chance.

    Best :)
