here is my hijackthis log : http://meldal-lan.com/terje2/hijackthis.log

can someone help me please?!

To hard to read that log ,run hijack ,the scan button will turn into a save log button , save the log ,and notepad will open up click save and just copy paste that log directly into you post .

i have previously fixed :

cant any1 help?

Are you running 386MAX Disk-Cache utility (Qcache.exe) or is this one the virus one? I can't find reliable information about removal if it's the virus. No doubt Crunchie knows tho

have you created a new log since cleaning the old one?

Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by deleting the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.

Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ folder. Put your HijackThis.exe there, and double click to run it.

im not sure how...but i think i fixed it . i laid in som registry changes..

Hi Guys,
I have the same problem that Foilltank had previously. I am a beginer to this sort of stuff and i realy dont know how to fix it. I am going mad... Could you please give me an explanation in basic, baby english on how i can get rid of this crap..

I would realy appreciate it.
Thanks..

First up you will need to start your own thread & not tag on to the end of another member's .

Download & instal Adaware from here
& update it before scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Always try to unload Modules before deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'
Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan.
When the scan is finished select 'next.'
Remove what it finds by placing a check in the box to the left of the object. Reboot

Download & instal Spybot S&D from here. Update it before scanning.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. This program will prevent the install of bad activex controls that it has knowledge of. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it. Reboot

Download HijackThis from here & unzip it into it's own, permanent folder, (Not a temporary folder or the desktop (in a folder on the desktop is fine) & not directly on your hard drive). If you prefer an executable file, then download from here.
If you have anything disabled in MsConfig, please re-enable it/them.
Start HJT & with all browser windows closed, press the scan button. When the scan is finished the scan button will change to save. Save the log to a text file, copy the entire contents of the text file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is necessary for the running of your system.
