    Greetings yall. This is the first time i have had to post a HijackThis log. This particular bug is rather nasty though. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and i thank anyone who can help ahead of time.

    A few notes, when i run adaware, it picks up 25-29 files, Every Time. They are all from the vx2 vendor: the screenshot below the HijackThis log shows adaware's scan results.

    Here we go:

    This is the most unfortunate week of all for me to get a malware infection, so if anyone can help, i will be eternally grateful. Thanks again ahead of time.

    Thanks for the link, though i have already tried most of these things. I will systematically run through the list though, and post my results. Again, thank you!

    I have tried this, and when i launch it, the "clean" button is transparant, and won't allow me to click it. Very lame. I've tried un-installing adaware, reinstalling, then re-downloading and re-installing the clean tool. The result is always the same.

    Thanks for the try though!

    Darn, can't edit my last post, but i though i should add this info. The version of the tool was 1.3, if that makes any difference. I downloaded it each time from the Adaware site. Their description is a little ambiguous though,

    I imagine that i have this variant, (though the clean tool doesn't work for me,) as there is a process in my task manager (it's always something like wdetsrje.exe or jnkvosn.exe, something nonsensical.) When i try to end the task, another pops up right before the other disappears. I tried going into safe mode to remove it, and it still replicates.
