Shopping Wizard/Home Help Assistant/Search Extender Spyware on my PC, various probs
 

Hi

The spyware Search Extender/Home Help Assistant/Shopping Wizard programs are on my computer in the Add/Remove Programs window. My startpage has been changed to some spyware website, random words on webpages are highlighted and I can't go onto AOL Instant Messanger because it keeps crashing. I've tried almost everything, but nothing. Here is my HijackThis log:

Hi headtotoe, welcome to DaniWeb :D

You haven't done the most important thing yet :), go to Windows Update and get SP1a for both XP and IE.

Download and run:

HSRemove -- http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4286.html

CWShredder -- http://www.intermute.com/spysubtract..._download.html

About:Buster -- http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4289.html

Check for updates before scanning.

Scan withhijackthis and have it fix the following entries:

Be sure all windows are closed, other then hijackthis, before hitting Fix checked.

Go to the following locations and delete the highlighted files:

C:\WINDOWS\web\related.htm
C:\WINDOWS\system32\xgarx.dll

Locate the following files, right-click on them, and give us whatever info you can (Manufacturer, Version, etc.):

C:\WINDOWS\system32\winql.dll
C:\WINDOWS\netwn.exe

You may wish to consider disabling CTHELPER.EXE -- quote from sysinfo:

CTHELPER is a background task that is a plug-in manager for Creative drivers. The theory is that 3rd party manufacturers can use the CTHELPER plug-in interface to produce drivers, add-on features, and fixes that will integrate with a tighter fit with Creative’s sound drivers and utilities. Given its purpose CTHELPER would normally be classified as a "leave alone" background task. It also allows Creative speaker setup to be synchronized with Windows Control Panel speaker setting. Without it running that check box in Creative speaker setting is not functional (settings are not in sync). Unfortunately there are often problems with CTHELPER, most notably that it can use 100% of CPU time so it's best left disabled unless you need it.

Reboot, close any open browser windows, scan with HJT, and post a new log please.

Hm I did everything but it's still the same. The two files you asked for information on didn't have any, just blank everything in properties. Here's another log

Boot into Safe Mode and do a search for these files and delete any instances found:
