    Hello everyone, and thanks to anyone who can help me solve the problems I face with IE :
    -The homepage is automatically changed to "easy-search.biz"
    -The computer keeps connecting to a proxy adress (127.0.0.1/8080), even though I tick it off in the 'options' box. It keeps coming back, slows things down or even shuts down the Internet connection.
    I have tried fixing these problems with Ad-Aware and Hijackths, but they identify the problem (see hijackthis log below) and cannot solve them. Clicking "Fix checked" in hijackthis only 'cleans' the computer for 10-15 seconds, and the next scan shows the same log, with the problems back...

    Again, many thanks to anyone who can help me.

    HijackThis is the last step. In addition, you are way out of date with your HJT versions.

    Please follow all the steps in this Sticky thread < READ ME FIRST: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal > If you already have any of the programs linked in the tutorial please double check your version to make sure you have the latest one and that you have any/all updates for the programs.

    NOTE: In order to resolve the issues you are having it is very important that you at least try to perform all the steps as outlined. If you have any difficulty please post back letting us know what steps you have completed, what you found while doing the scans if anything and details about any problems you have encountered in completing the steps. The more details you can provide the better.


    NOTE: You should read the tutorial in this Sticky thread < Hijack This Tutorial And How To Post Your Log File > Do not post a HijackThis log until we ask you to and when we do it must be text document attachment to your message.

    Update! Due to Hijack This logs destroying search engine and web site searches, we now ask you do not post your Hijack This log file unless requested by us. It is for advanced users, so if you do not understand how to use it, you do not need it....yet. Instead, please tell us in your post what symptoms you are experiencing so we can try and resolve it that way. When, and if, we ask you to post your log file, please attach it as a file. To do this save the log file and select manage attachments in a new thread to upload it. All running programs should be closed, including your web browser, e-mail, items in the tray, anything you can close... Close before running Hijack This!

    Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder or choose run from the download. Place it in its own folder, for example C:\Program Files\HJT
