    About two weeks ago I was on limewire looking for a free resume builder software and what I got was Vundo and Adware Ezula according to my Norton security.After skimming the'' read me first'' @MG and seeking my friends advice I took my friends advice and did a PC Recovery(not to be confused with a ''system restore'')the logic was since there wasn't any files that were that important I would just PC Recover and start new,after all the PC Recovery is supposed to be partictioned off and unreachable by malware or anything!I realize that if I had ''system restore point'' can be infected and just reinfect thats why I did a full ''PC Recover'' but now my scans keep showing ''highjacker .small'' ''not a virus downloader'' and about the same seven or eight cookies. Anyhow your help will be extreamly appreciated here are my files per ''READ ME FIRST''

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Cookies are not problems. See step 11 of this How to Protect yourself from malware!

    The Hijacker.Small that you referred to is in System Restore and you must disable and then re-enable System Restore for it to go away. As far as the digstream.exe stuff, if you did not install this and don't access sites that require it, then uninstall/delete it. It may be related to Vongo Service that you have installed.


    You did run ComboFix which was the first thing rquested. Why not? However you don't have any malware.


    Uninstall the below old versions of software:
    J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6
    Make sure you reboot after uninstalling the above!

    After reboot, now install the current version of Sun Java from: Sun Java Runtime Environment
