    Hi

    I have downloaded the following products Avast and Antivir on the anti-virus front and Spybot search & destroy, Ad aware SE, CWSShredder and Hijackthis. Hijackthis is the only one I haven't used yet, but everytime I run one of these programmes they get interrupted by I think it windows AV or something saying that one of the following was found PMS/SEARCHBAR.DLL.2 and TR/DLDR.STARTPAGE, then it gives you the option whether you wont to quarantine, delete, ignore etc and I have pressed delete everytime but when I scanned again using avast it brought them up again, I also had these 2 as well but I think they might of gone now Trojan.byteverify virus and Backdoor.coreflood dr virus, I haven't run any of these with the system restore off, I dont know whether thats important or not, have you got any suggestions how I can get rid of these buggers?

    Thanks in Advance

    :)

    Have you scanned from safe mode? If not, please try our tutorial here:

    This explains disabling system restore as well, which is important because you may have trapped these in restore so anything you do will not completely remove it.

    From there, Hijack This might help eliminate a few, but check back with us.
