    Hello All, This is my first time here but I have to say this is one of the better looking forums!!

    Anyway, I just downloaded the latest version of HJT and ran a scan and I keep getting the errors that I have pasted in the bottom of this thread. Earlier in the day I ran my old version (not knowing there was a new one available) and posted the log file that it saved (on a different forum than this) and I was informed that there was a new version, and to download it, but in the meantime he told me to run all my spyware etc., which I already knew and had done. And then post back with the new log file. So moving right along, I did however, run Spybot in the meantime just to make sure that it was the latest update. So then I proceeded to run a new scan of HJT and I started getting the errors, which i would then hit the OK butten and it would continue the scan until the next error popped up. I have never had any errors on previous scans before I downloaded this newer version. I was hoping someone could give me an idea what these errors are all about.

    I am somewhat knowledgeable about computers, I just get really nervous when it comes to the registry, etc.

    By the way, I'm doing this for a friend who has no knowledge of this stuf whatsoever!! It is Win 98 SE operating system.

    Thank You, Hope to hear something soon!!
    Roger

    You may need the Visual Basic Runtime Libraries to be able to run HijackThis. Most recent Windows have these installed by default, but if you don't have them, they're available from Microsoft.com also they are here on MGs Visual Basic Run Time

    I downloaded and installed the VISUAL BASIC RUN TIME and I still get the errors.

    I guess i'll send the e-mail like it says to do in the error report. I was just hoping for a quick fix. :rolleyes:

    I will check back here in a little bit before I do the e-mail just to see if anyone has any more suggestions.

    Thank You
    Roger

    Hi Roger,

    What Malware issues does your friend have?
    We have our own CleanupTutorial we like people to attempt - Especially the Online Scans!

    READ ME FIRST BEFORE ASKING FOR SUPPORT: Basic Spyware, Trojan and Virus Removal

    It might also be a good idea to scan with the Old HJT and attach the log.
    I'll leave a link in case you need it.

    Note that your HijackThis MUST be extracted to its own safe folder – C:\Program Files\HijackThis!
    Should you need a Fresh Download of HJT, get it HERE: HijackThis v1.99

    Also note that, before you scan, you MUST close all running programs including your web browser, e-mail and items in the system tray.

    Please save your HJT Log as a .txt File and attach it via the "Manage Attachments" tool in the Additional Options section when you post.

    I’m not around this forum too often these days, but somebody will try to take a look when they get a chance.

    PP :)
