    I bought trend micro internet security pro 2010 at my local computer shop. I installed it but it was after i got some sort of malware, i think it was caine and able. i scanned with trend micro and it seemed to get rid of it. Trend micro has worked fine for a month and so has my computer. I have a good internet connection, and my browser works fine (firefox). recently trend micro and my adobe wont update. It says that i do not have an internet connection. i have used adaware, malware bytes to scan and cc cleaner so far. i have followed the read me first for malware on this site. i have removed adaware and malbytes. please help...
    here is my latest hijack this log if it helps. i have XP SP3
    thank you in advance,
    Jason

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Please read ALL of this message including the notes before doing anything.

    Pleases follow the instructions in the below link:

    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
    • **** If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. ****
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not. MGtools will frequently run even when all other tools will not.

    • After completing the READ & RUN ME and attaching your logs, make sure that you tell us what problems still remain ( if any still do )!
    Helpful Notes:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode, you can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools and the manual updates for SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes ( links are given in the READ & RUN ME) onto another PC and then burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
    3. If you cannot seem to login to an infected user account, try using a different user account (if you have one) in either normal or safe boot mode and running only SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes while logged into this other user account. Then reboot and see if you can log into the problem user account. If you can then run SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, ComboFix and MGtools on the infected account as requested in the instructions.
    4. To avoid additional delay in getting a response, it is strongly advised that after completing the READ & RUN ME you also read this sticky:
    Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated our system works the oldest threads FIRST.

    Your hijackthis log showed some malware (unless you set this proxy yourself which I very much doubt) Yes attach all of the requested logs if you wish for me to ensure no traces of malware are lingering.
