    Hi guys, wondering if someone can offer some assistance here.

    Got a bit of a problem with a mates laptop. Everytime I start IE it keeps coming up with this "pyagcore.search.searchdetection" followed by IE shutting down due to a runtime error.

    I ran SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes before finding this site. They removed a few files but the problem still exists.

    I ran the files as mentioned in the read me first thread and include the logs. Any help you can offer would be much appreciated, thanks

    • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 6 <--- Uninstall this as its outdated.
    • Kiwee Toolbar <--- Uninstall this and see if the problems that brought you here are gone. Use Revo uninstaller. (For Kiwee)


    Try Revo Uninstaller.
    Choose the option on the bottom of the list (#4). Be very careful while deleting the bolded registry items ONLY!! This software will create a system restore point for you as well prior to uninstalling a software program.


    Reboot your machine and install the most current and up to date version of Java available here at the below link:

    Java Runtime 6

    No prob. Safe surfing!

    If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
      • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
      • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
    3. Go back to step 6 of the READ ME and renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it.
    4. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    5. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    6. If running Vista, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    7. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    8. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders
      related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    9. If you are running Win 7, Vista, Windows XP or Windows ME, do the below:
      • Refer to the cleaning procedures pointed to by step 7 of the READ ME
        for your Window version and see the instructions to Disable System Restore which will flush your Restore Points.
      • Then reboot and Enable System Restore to create a new clean Restore Point.
    10. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
