    Ok I got a huge problem
    Spybot, Adawere didnt work nor did anty other spyware problem...
    I downloaded your hujackthis programm that did not work trust me I tried everything
    In registry under sofrtware/microsofr/internet explorer/main there are
    HOMEOldSP type REG_SZ data about:blank
    there is also a start page file
    I will delete these files however they will always come back
    Spybot will find this file HOMEOldSP under name webdialer and there is also a cookie that keeps coming back Avenue inc.
    I am taken to about:blank website the exact site is

    I would suggest not clicking on this link becasue that is where you pick up this bull...
    any suggestions?
    I understand that there must be a process running in the background but I cant find it
    it slows my computer down allot too

    I got a response from one person and it helped me however
    The damn thing came back after 5 or 6 hours after I ran my AIM

    Usually, you need to find it on startup, remove it, then delete the file or stop the process. Have you used the removal tools found here and have you read the Hijack This tutorial? I would try CWShredder for example to start with and look at Hijack This later. Hijack This is designed for advanced users, and as you can see by the many posts here, people are often told to download it, but not warned it can be complicated to use and can cause problems, nor that there are plenty of removal tools :)

    Obviously theres a lot of times its being loaded:

    Download this application (DelLater) to your PC: http://www.diamondcs.com.au/index.php?page=dellater
    Use it to mark this file "C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll" for deletion on your next boot.

    Then shutdown all applications (especially Internet Explorer). Now right click on your Desktop's Internet Explorer icon and select Properties. Under the General tab, select Delete Cookies and then select Delete Files and in the popup window choose to Delete all offline content too. Now rerun HiJaak This. Have it remove all the items below:

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = about:blank
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = about:blank
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = res://C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll/sp.html (obfuscated)
    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,HomeOldSP = about:blank

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {A934C935-132A-42E7-886D-EDDF7BD5D1EB} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\fiph.dll

    Now reboot. Then re-run HiJaak This and see what you get.
