    So I followed all your instructions on the "Do this stuff first" page. I now have logs that I can post from Hijackthis, Runkey, NewFiles, and Activescan.

    Everything seems to have been eliminated by use of Norton, Spyware Doctor and the programs you recommended here. However there is still at least one adware that I can't get rid of that none of these programs can detect. It's a fake Spyware hunter that looks like a windows program called Spyware Detection Alert. It puts itself in my icon tray and tells me I have infections and sports the Windows logo. I can't find it on my computer to delete it. This also makes me afraid that there are still others hiding in my system that can't be found.

    I know I had several viruses that seemed to have been removed. I had "Trojan.Busky" which seems to be gone finally. I also had Trojan.downloader.small.CMS or something like that which also seems to be gone. I am afraid to plug my computer back into the net because it kept getting around all my protection and downloading a bunch of crap I had to re-remove.

    Right now I am operating off my mac laptop and transferring dowloaded files from it to my PC in order to keep any dowloaders offline.

    I have uploaded all my logs except for NewFiles because for some reason it is 608KB which is larger than the max file you allow. IF you need this file, please let me know how you'de like me to give it to you.

    Thanks so much for your help. Help me get these files of my comp.

    Next, run CCleaner to clean up cookies and temp files.

    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.

    Very Appreciated.
