    I guess i have an intelligent Hijacker... i've tried using spybot S&D, hijackthis, adaware, BHODemon, and every single time it's removed it. But sometimes without restarting, and sometimes with, it re-appears. It always changes the start page, and sometimes has a bar inbedded in IE, and somtimes at the bottom of the screen. I have System Restore turned off. Norton Antivirus doesn find anything either. Any help would be great... thanks!

    Have you tried uninstalling it from your system, I have had to fix a few computers with that problem and the only thing that would work is if I uninstalled it from programs list and then run spybot, ad aware and hijackthis.

    That would get it away from the computer for good.

    Yup i've tried cw shredder too, and it said I was clean. Also, it does not appear anywhere in the 'add/remove programs' folder so i can't uninstall it there, any other ideas there. i just ran hijack this earlier today, so the bar is gone for the moment, but when it re-appears again, likely tomorrow, i'll post it then. Until then, any other ideas would be great. Thanks!

    Silhouette, We really need to see your complete HiJaak This log. Before running it shut all applications you can down especially Windows & Internet Explorers. Then run HiJaak This and save the log. Now reconnect to Majorgeeks and post your log here.

    alright, it's back, and here's my hijack this log. I'm running Norton AV, and i think spybot search&destoy. that should be the only antivirus i have. Obviously #1-5, and #7 should be the ones to delete, and i'm guessing the ones with 'Lies Jugs.dll' etc, in it... but i guess i'll shut up and let you tell me what to do now :)

    First download and run CWSchedder fro here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4086.html
    and select Fix.

    Second shutdown all applications and windows and use Task Manager to kill the following processes if running:
    C:\PROGRA~1\ATOMDE~1\32third.exe
    C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\pch2.exe

    Now run HiJaak This and have it fix the following items:
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://searchweb2.com/searchbar.html
    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://searchweb2.com/searchbar.html
    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = searchweb2.com
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://searchweb2.com/searchbar.html
    R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://searchweb2.com/searchbar.html

    R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = http://searchweb2.com/searchbar.html
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {21AF1157-D0D5-6D0F-F0C1-B06B972C8EB6} - C:\PROGRA~1\TRUSTT~1\Lies Jugs.dll
    O3 - Toolbar: real else vc - {069CAF45-D627-6008-7DEC-C18A421037C2} - C:\PROGRA~1\TRUSTT~1\Lies Jugs.dll

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [OnlineCdrom] C:\PROGRA~1\ATOMDE~1\32third.exe
    O4 - Startup: PowerReg Scheduler.exe

    Now boot in safe mode and delete the below if they are still there (make sure in Windows explorer under Tools-> Folder Options, you have enabled viewing of hidden files and do not hid extensions for known file types):

    C:\PROGRA~1\ATOMDE~1\32third.exe
    C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\pch2.exe

    ran cwshredder and it said i was completely clean. I ran hijack this and fixed all the suggested, and it's seems to have worked for now. But i could not find pch2.exe in task manager, so i couldn't get rid of it. But other than that, it seems fine. any reason why it might come back again after all this?

    Look for both of those programs:

    C:\PROGRA~1\ATOMDE~1\32third.exe
    C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\pch2.exe

    by doing a file search on you PC. If you find them, delete them.
