    Ok, I really have very little knowledge about the workings of my computer, but I am trying to get the C : progra~1/mywebs~1/bar/1.bin/mwsbar.dll off my computer when it starts up. Have tried many virus and spy removal programs with no success. I have attached my hijackthis log and if anyone is smart enough to tell me what I need to delete, I would appreciate it greatly.:)

    Hi and Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    While Hijackthis is a good application it does not highlight all malware on your PC ( also it needs a name change as highlighted in the guide below, because soem malware now hunts for its name when run and hides itself from the HJT scan ) so the below needs to be run to sucessfully start the removals process and highlight as much malware components a possible, once you have posted the requested logs our experts can give you tailored instructions in removing whats left.. Good Luck :)



    Please follow our standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, running, and posting HijackThis logs as attachments.
    • Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support
    • Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.
    • Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.
    • After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis and attach a log:
    Downloading, Installing, and Running HijackThis

    Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around.


    • When you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too:

      • [*]runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
        [*]newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
      • CounterSpy - ONLY IF you were not able to run Windows Defender
      • Bitdefender - from step 6
      • Panda Scan - from step 6
      • HijackThis

    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!
