    Greetings all -
    Suspected a malware infestation. Followed instructions in the "Read & Run 1st" post. Log files attached. Would greatly appreciate a review and assessment of next steps.

    Currently have uninstalled Norton 360. SuperAntiSpyWare is still installed from the 1st instructions phase.

    Will await further instructions - huge thanks to all for your help!

    It looks as if you missed a step in the READ ME, go back and download MGTools.exe and attach the log it produces.

    Your logs are clean, you can run the few steps below to remove some unecessary startup entries and cleanup some junk files.

    Are you having any current problems?

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
    Again, make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX.

    Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune. This program does not require an installation. The executable actually runs the program.

    NOTE: This program is for Windows XP and Windows 2000 only. ATF Cleaner will remove all files from the items that are checked so if you have some cookies you'd like to save. Please move them to a different directory first.
    • Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
    • Under Main choose: Select All
    • Click the Empty Selected button.
    If you use Firefox browser
    • Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
    • Click the Empty Selected button.
      • NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
    If you use Opera browser
    • Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
    • Click the Empty Selected button.
      • NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
    Click Exit on the Main ATF Cleaner menu to close the program.
