Congratulations! Your log looks clean - good work!

===============

It's probably a good idea to defragment your hard drive too. This may well improve the performance of your PC.

===============

Download, install and run Cleanup! from Steven Gould, then:

1. Click "Cleanup!"

(wait for the program to finish scanning your system, and selecting files to be removed.)

2. Exit the program and reboot the computer, if necessary.

-

For more information about using Cleanup! see here.

===============

If everything is running ok, let's do the final cleanup...

===============

1. Run "Disk Cleanup" and allow it to remove everything it finds.

2. Go to www.trendmicro.com and click "Free Online Scan", then "Scan now, it's free!". When it's downloaded, select all available drives, then check(tick) "Auto clean", then click "Scan".

3. Run AdAware SE Personal and "perform a full system scan", then Spybot S&D, and "Check for Problems". Let them both remove the residual 'problems' left that HiJackThis couldn't fix.

4. Disable, then re-enable system restore; with a reboot in-between. Then immediately create a new system point manually.

===============

If your having any more problems, post back.

Happy surfing,

[crunchie].

This is a nasty little virus. I work for an IT dept, and i just ran into it when fixing a machine. You guys know your stuff, thanks for all the info. Hopefully mcafee and Symatec will get a hold of this and the problems won't last long
