Yes....the ones you told me to do: O10

Also, HJT message said to use LSPfix......I downloaded that but it says "no problem found"

Thanks for the help by the way. I could not do this myself.

Alright, i'm not sure if they would cause any problems. I'll refer this to Crunchie and he might be able to post something.

Just better to be safe.

Firstly, hijackthis will not fix those 010 entries, as you have found out . LSPfix should always be used to remove malware entries.

Secondly, those 010 entries are legitimate. They belong to Stopzilla.

Thank you all. After all the scanning and such, I was successful in removing a couple dozen things that should not have been there. Sadly though, I am still stuck with the problem of Google returning bogus ad sites rather than the legitimate search results pages. At least I can use Google with Safari without the same problem. I'm stumped.

oh, still having problems, alright, let's try combo fix

Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE
  • You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
  • Physically disconnect from the internet.
  • Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields) as they could easily interfere with ComboFix.
  • Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Thanks,
