    Hello guys.

    First of all I would like to say that your site is amazing and I really appreciate that you are trying to help people.

    I had posted a previous thread but I didnt do it properly.

    My problem is the following.

    I have Norton System Works which works fine, even though I think is a bit crap because it rarely cleans any viruses that it might find. From past experience I know that one of the best antivirus softwares is Panda. (correct me if I am wrong). I had Panda before and I loved it. Nevertheless, it was causing some stability problems on my system so I had to uninstall it.

    Abou a week ago, Norton detected a trojan called hooker or something in System32 but could not do anything about it. Not even quarantine it. So what I installed Panda to see if I could remove it. I installed it, I restarted my system and it completely crashed after restarting. I tried restarting agai and again but I had no luck. So I used Safe mode and used system recovery to roll back my system a few days back. I then tried uninstalling Panda but it didnt get rid of everything. Some dll files remained in my system.

    When I tried to go online, I had no problems but as soon as I did that, 2 files were being created on my desktop. Webexcl.dat and Webproxy.ini

    So I got a bit worried because I didnt know what those files were.

    I then read lots of forums to see how I can tackle the problem. I run Hijack this and it told me that there was a dll file from Panda in the Winsock LSP. So I run LSPfix and I got rid of pavlsp.dll

    Do you think that will solve the problem?

    Have you heard about these 2 files before?

    Also, I would like some help on the following. How can I completely get rid of the remaining Panda traces? When I right click on a file there is an option that says "scan with Panda". Even though I have deleted everything that I could apart from those dll files.

    Lastly, what is the best antivirus software and spyware software that you can recomend?

    I will include my hijack this log so you see if there is something dodgy there as well.

    THANK YOU GUYS..... I AM REALLY SORRY ABOUT THE LONG MSG.http://forum.majorgeeks.com/images/icons/icon11.gif

    I am sure you posted this because you read the hijack this tutorial, so I appreciate you cleaning it up, but I responded to the other thread before I saw this one :) Lets meet in that thread and see what we can do :)
