    The first thing everyone is asked to do when looking for help here is read through and perform the necessary steps in the following stick thread:


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

    If you currently have any of the programs that are listed to download, be sure it is the updated version that is offered by this site. These links remain updated, so the updated version of all of the downloads are available through the links on the thread above.

    Try to make it through all the steps in the tutorial and make notes of the results of each scan. If you have problems with any of the steps in the tutorial, make note of that as well in your next reply. After going through all of that, reply here and describe any symptoms that remain on the machine and you will be advised as to the next step.

    If you are asked to post a HijackThis log (and don't post before you are asked) make sure you read the following thread first.

    NO HIJACK THIS LOG FILES BEFORE READING THIS: HJT Tutorial & LOG File Posting

    When posting a log, be sure to post it as an attachment, not an in-thread paste.
