    So apparently I downloaded a trojan and someone is externally accessing my machine while I'm gone (and sometimes while I'm there). I have run Norton, SpyBot, and Adaware and nothing has fixed the problem. HijackThis log below:

    Edit by chaslang: Unrequested inline log removed. Please read the announcement and sticky threads. Run the READ ME FIRST!

    Thanks for the help, it is much needed!

    After running the READ ME FIRST (as edited into your first message), if you still have problems then you should follow the steps below to properly install, run, and attach a HijackThis log.


    - Download HijackThis 1.99.1

    - Unzip the hijackthis.exe file to a folder you create named C:\Program Files\HJT

    - Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder, or a sub-folder of C:\Documents and Settings, or choose to run it directly from the downloaded ZIP file.

    - Before running HijackThis: You must close each of the following:your web browser, e-mail client, instant messenger, and programs like notepad, wordpad, MS Word etc. And any other unnecessary running programs.

    - Run HijackThis and save your log file.

    - Post your log as an ATTACHMENT to your next message. (Do NOT copy/paste the log into your post).
