    Okay, Eveytime I restart my computer, My homepage get reset to: http://www.search2004.net/hp.htm?id=9, and I get 4 pornography link added to my favorites. My Browser is being badly hijacked. All the viruses are off the drive, and I've scanned with SpyBot, Ad Aware, HijackThis!, and AVG Antivirus, and get rid of all the valid files that I can get rid of without rendering my system useless. I really need somw suggestions or software that can get me out of this mess and stop this! Help! :(

    Also, uncheck enable third party browser extensions under Internet Options, advanced tab. Does that help?

    Should I scan with HijackThis! and Ad Aware after scanning with this? and restarting to try it out?

    Hi Shimzuka
    When you have done as Adrynalyne has suggested try and get some quality software for your start up folder. Namely spywareguard and spy blaster. These will prevent Download Protection for INTERNET explorer and Browser Hijacking Protection in real time and By setting a kill bit for the CLSIDs of spy ware ActiveX controls. There are additional tools you could also use like IE spyad which will keep bad sites away from cluttering up your browser

    Can you post your hijack file
    there might be more than just that one


    I think your problem is the control.exe in the windows dir
    remove the regkey for it at HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    clean porn bookmarks set startpage and reboot

    your problem should be gone ( i finally delete the control.exe too)
    because i found out over regmon that it hacks the ie settings and i think
    it creates this it.bat or load.exe or hp.htm too which sometimes (but not ever) appeared in my windows folder

    wupdater.exe is spyware.

    Well I used Trojan.Qhosts, and it said nothing was found, But I turned off System Restore before I rebooted and nothing came back, So I'm pretty sure that was just bringing all the bad files back, So as of now, I'm cured! THanks everyone! THanks so much, Espicially to Adrynalyne! :)
