    It looks like the scans took care of it.....let's just do this:

    Please disable all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs while we do the following (re-enable when you are finished):

    Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it. This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:
    After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

    Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.
    Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune. This program does not require an installation. The executable actually runs the program.

    NOTE: This program is for Windows XP and Windows 2000 only. ATF Cleaner will remove all files from the items that are checked so if you have some cookies you'd like to save. Please move them to a different directory first.

    * Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
    * Under Main choose: Select All
    * Click the Empty Selected button.

    If you use Firefox browser

    * Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
    * Click the Empty Selected button.
    o NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.

    If you use Opera browser

    * Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
    * Click the Empty Selected button.
    o NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.

    Click Exit on the Main ATF Cleaner menu to close the program.

    Now tell me what malware issues you may still have.

    well i couldn't get the firefox tab to work for some reason on the ATF cleaner...so i just went through firefox itself and emptied all private data (i'm guessing that is what ATF is supposed to do?)

    i've ran superspyware, spy sweeper, and spybot search and destroy at least once a piece doing a full scan...and its not bringing anything up but maybe a cookie or two...but no virtumonde is coming up....so i'm assuming that is taken care of...haven't seen any popups on firefox, my windows security center is no longer telling me that automatic updates is off...

    so *knock on wood* hopefully it is gone...i will keep running the spyware programs every now and again just to make sure...what spyware program should i have running in my system tray? would you suggest Superspyware, spy sweeper (good until 1-29-09), or spybot? and would you suggest running your cleaning guide once in awhile also?

    thanks a million

    Good to know. You should keep whatever you currently have ...at least until the paid for programs are expired.

    Your logs look clean.
