    Welcome to MGs! However we have guidelines about using and posting HijackThis that we like to have followed. There is a cleanup procedure that must be ran first to.

    To help us to best help you, please follow the steps below closely and in the order given and do not skip anything. If you have any difficulty, please post back letting us know what steps you have completed, what you found while doing the scans if anything along with details about any problems you may have encountered in completing the steps. The more details you can provide the better. Don't be afraid to ask for additional help if you don't understand something!

    - Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal 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:

    - 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).

    Please read my previous message again. You must run the READ ME FIRST sticky steps and then if you have any problems remaining, describe them, and install HijackThis properly per my message and then post your HijackThis log as an ATTACHMENT to your message.

    Just complete following the instructions! You should be runing all the steps as written without doing anything else inbetween. Have you finished running ALL steps in READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal


    If not, please complete them. After that if you still have a problem, follow my instructions on posting a HijackThis log. Do no post inline logs and make sure you install HijackThis as requested.

    SpyBot S&D should remove this for you--if you don't already have SpyBot S&D, download it from majorgeeks.com. Good Luck. OLB
