    Hi, I went through the steps in the malware removal guide, and I think that there may still be a problem on this computer. I'm attaching the SASlog, the Malwarebytes log, the Combofix log, and the Root Repeal log files as instructed. I will attach the MGTools zip file in the next message as instructed.

    Thank you for your help.

    Thank you.

    What issues are you having since I can not find any remaining malware in your logs?

    We can remove some left over junk:

    Please disable all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs while we do the following (re-enable when you are finished):

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now copy just the bold text below to notepad (Do not include any space above the word REGEDIT). Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.
    Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
    to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.


    Now use add/remove programs to uninstall:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6

    TimW,

    Thank you for taking the time to review my log files. I ran the HijackThis scan and made the fixes you recommended. I made the registry change, and received a success message. And I removed that Java update.

    I'm not having any more problems. I was worried because the root repeal log info looked fishy (good thing I didn't go off half-cocked and delete the files listed there, as I considered doing), and because another computer here is infected, so I'm being overly-cautious.

    Thanks again for your help.

    David

    Not a problem. I assume you have posted for assistance with the other computer. ;)
