    I decided to download hijackthis from download.com and scan I put the log in http://www.hijackthis.de/#anl and http://hjt.iamnotageek.com/parse.php the first one says no problem the second one says I'm infected. Which is right? here is my logfile

    Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.4

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Neither one because you cannot tell if a PC is infected by looking at only a HijackThis log. HijackThis logs provide insignificant information these days. See item number 1 in the below link and the Note that it refers to:

    Forum Rules and Guidelines

    This is why we don't ask for HijackThis logs.

    If your goal is to really determine if your PC is infection, the below is what we require:
