    I can't seem to get rid of the trojan popuper. I've tried running the smit.exe, ad-adware, spybot, and ewido but none seem to remove the spyware. Everytime I run spybot, PSGuard.msmsgs and coolwwwsearch.searchklick appears. I tried removing the files associated with it: shnlog.exe; intmonp.exe;and popuper.exe but my computer would not let me do it. What should I do?

    Please follow the steps below:

    Download smitRem.exe and save the file to your desktop.
    • Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the desktop.
    • Reboot into safe mode.
    • Open the smitRem folder, then double click the RunThis.bat file to start the tool. Follow the prompts on screen. Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
    The tool will create a log named smitfiles.txt in the root of your drive, eg; Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please attach this log to your next reply.
    If that does not fix your problems, continue with the below but post the above smitfiles.txt log too.

    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:
