    Hi, wondering if anyone can possibly help..?
    Got a minor infection in the form of Troj/Spywad-AM.
    Cleaned using Sophos (in safe mode), all reg entries now fine.
    However, restart & clean again. No infections found.

    BUT...as soon as I connect to the web, Troj/LinkOp-Gen is found in C:\Windows\jbgfx1.dll and I have to go through the process again.

    Wondered if anyone knew which reg entires I need to change in relation to Troj/LinkOp-Gen?

    One extra thing which may or may not be linked is when running full scan, picked up on 1aOaNr.exe (read only). Cannot get rid of this f*cker! Is it related?

    Cheers a lot.
    Fred

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    Please follow our standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, running, and posting HijackThis logs as attachments.
    • Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support
    • Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.
    • Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.
    • After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis and attach a log:
    Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis

    Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around.


    ​
    • When you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too:
      • CounterSpy - ONLY IF you were not able to run Windows Defender
      • Bitdefender - from step 6
      • Panda Scan - from step 6
      • runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
      • newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
      • HijackThis
    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!
