    Hello, I got this virus: "Trojan horse Start Page.19.j" and im getting very frusrated trying to get rid of it. I use Webroot Spy Sweeper, Spybot Search & Destroy, and AVG Anti-Virus. AVG detects the trojan as soon as I open internet explorer, everytime, I delete it many times, and it just comes back. After deleting it when AVG detects it, it says it deleted it but I also get a popup "RUNDLL error loading c:\docume~1\owner\local~1\Temp\se.dll Access is denied." AVG said that this se.dll was the virus so I deleted it manually in safe mode. After rebooting IEexplorer or whatever failed and my computer wouldnt work. So I did a system restore (the easy fast one[replaced stock windows applications]) and I still have this virus. I googled this virus and seems that i need to make a log file with hijack this so someone can maybe help me out and get rid of this. I made log file....here it is. please help me out if you can.

    Download this file: SpSeHjfix109

    Unzip it to your desktop or to a folder.

    Boot into Safe Mode

    Start SpSeHjfix, click on " Desinfecton starten" (the other button means close) then it will reboot and finish the cleaning.

    Run SpSeHjfix one more time.

    Reboot in Normal mode.

    Run HijackThis again and post a new log. Also post the log from SpSeHjfix, the log should be on your desktop or the same folder as SpSeHjfix.

    After you do the above, then procede with these online scans:

    TrendMicro Online Scan
    Bitdefender online scan
    RavAntivirus online scan <-- select Auto Clean then click Scan My PC
    TrojanScan online scan

    Again, make sure All Browser Windows are Closed when you Click FIX.

    NOW:
    Do a search for the following 2 files and delete when found. Be sure you have the viewing of hidden files and folders enabled per the tutorial.

    ShowWnd.exe

    winis.exe


    NEXT:
    Run CCleaner and Spybot S&D and have Spybot fix what it finds.
    Note: Dont forget to update Spybot S&D by selecting "Search For Updates"

    Then, as an added precaution, Go to Start > Run and type: cleanmgr and then click OK. Make sure the boxes for these are checked:
    Temporary Files
    Temporary Internet Files
    Recycle Bin


    And Click OK.


    Reboot to Normal Windows

    FINAL STEP

    Reset Web Settings & Default Security Settings:


    To Reset Web Settings:
    Right click on your desktop Internet Explorer icon and select Properties. Then click the Programs tab and then click "Reset Web Settings". Now go back to the General tab and set your home page address to something useful like www.majorgeeks.com. Click Apply. Click Delete Cookies, Click Delete Files and select Delete all Offline content too, Click OK. When it finishes Click OK.

    If you do not have an Internet Explorer icon on your Desktop, click Start, Control Panel (for some systems it may be Start, Settings, Control Panel), Internet Options, Programs tab and then click "Reset Web Settings". Now go back to the General tab and set your home page address to something useful like www.majorgeeks.com. Click Apply. Click Delete Cookies, Click Delete Files and select Delete all Offline content too, Click OK. When it finishes Click OK


    To Default Security Settings:
    Right click on your desktop Internet Explorer icon and select Properties. Then click the Security Tab and click Default Level for Internet, Local Intranet, Trusted Sites, and Restricted Sites.
