What should I do from here?

Hi Bob, first of all, there is an anouncement at the top of this forum requesting that all hijackthis logs be posted in the security forum. Someone will probably be moving it there shortly.

Next, you need to updat your version of hijackthis either using it's Update feature or from here:
http://www.softpedia.com/progDownloa...load-5034.html

You should also download Ad-Aware from here (the free version is fine):
http://www.download.com/3000-8022-10045910.html

And run free antivirus scans from here:
http://www.pandasoftware.com/actives..._principal.htm
And here:
http://www.trendmicro.com/en/home/us/enterprise.htm

After you run those, close all browser windows, scan with hijackthis, and post your new log.

You should review this thread as well:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread5690.html

Yes. Moving now...

Also, Download CWShredder from here & run it. Select the fix button & it will fix everything related to CoolWebSearch that is stored in it's database. Close ALL windows, including Internet Explorer, before running CWShredder. Reboot.

To help prevent this from happening again, install the patches for the vulnerabilities that this hijacker exploits by going here for your critical updates.

Reboot after doing this & post another log please.

Ok, here is the new log.

Also, when I did the virus scan w/ trendmicro.com, a bunch of viruses were detected and marked as "non cleanable" or "could not access" and they include...

TROJ AGENT.EL
TROJ SMALL.AN
TROJ ISTBAR.W
TROJ EMT.A
TROJ AGENT.AE
TROJ VIDLO.E
TROJ DYFUCA.M
TROJ DYFUCA.CN
TROJ LALUS.A
TROJ SMALL.KQ
TROJ REVOP.F
TROJ REVOP.D
TROJ ALCHEMIC.A
TROJ NEX.B
TROJ AGENT.EG
TROJ AGENT.DN

And over 200 files were affected

You're still heavily infested. Can you give us the locations (folders) of the infected files that Norton could not fix? That info would help.

Also- most of your problems are coming from the dreaded "about:blank" infection, which can be a nasty beast to remove; search this forum and Google for the keyphrase "about:blank" and you'll find many possible solutions. Try them and tell us the results.

Ok, I ran a program called Tracker Eraser to rid of the about:blank problem, i ran another hijackthis log and this is what it came up with...

As for the location of the viruses, most of them came from C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM, others just came from C:\WINDOWS... and a couple others came from C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files

There are files in C:\WINDOWS that concern me, such as "WINPOPUP" "PMRES" and "PMTS"

I can give you names of a few files found in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM that r affected

mfcaw32.dll
apppm32.dll
sysiy32.dll
addfb.dll
javagz.gll

Just to name a few...

Also, I noticed in that last log was this...

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.05p.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.searchmiracle.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.clickspring.net
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.blazefind.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.mt-download.com

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.my-internet.info
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.scoobidoo.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.searchbarcash.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.greg-search.com

So I went into my internet explorer options and i went to trusted sites and removed these plus a # of unknown sites. Below is the new log.

Just to get your log cleaned up a bit so it's easier to read, close all windows and scan with hjt.

Have it fix all items ending with (file missing)
And these:
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/cus...//www.yahoo.com
O8 - Extra context menu item: Web Savings - file://C:\Program Files\WebSavingsfromEbates\System\Temp\ebateswebsavings_script0.htm

Scan again and post a new log. I believe you will need to run aboutbuster to finish cleaning this up, but someone else will have to guide you through it.

Here is the new log...

Plus new problems have now shown up. You know when u type an address in IE and it shows the history of the webpages uve been to recently under that address, well for sum reason that has stopped working now also in IE i have the ability to type in just daniweb in the address bar then press ctrl+enter and it'll add http://www. and .com, well that also has been disabled.

Also I use SBC Yahoo DSL browser. There, when I go to log in it logs me in sucessfully, then it takes be back to the login screen. It takes me a couple times to login. But when I click on the mail logo to check my e-mail, the login screen comes back.

I think the situation here is getting more and more serious..
