I really need some help with this Hijack log, I just got my computer to start again after I had to delete the old startup files and copy new ones from my CD and then take my computers settings back to a previous restore point. Now I want to make sure everything is clean on it. Thanks!

While waiting, please check out the link in my sig, about what you should do before posting a HiJackThis log.

In your case, you've posted two of them in the past few weeks. According to your last post, they keep in popping back up. While there's no rule about posting more than one HJT log, it does prove that HJT is not a tool to actually "fix" anything-- it can stop things, but it doesn't prevent anything, and it doesn't help with good computing practice in keeping this crap off of your system.

Like I said... check out the links in my sig about security-- after reading them, you may not even need any help from us!

Hey, sorry for the misunderstanding, but this is a completly different system. The system that I had a log on before was for my computer at work. This is a personal compuyter at home that was being used by my brother primarily. I have already done all the regular checks and everything else like that. Ran Ad Aware, Spybot S&D and other various spyware/adware programs. Any help that you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again. :p

okay... here's what I've found... maybe others will find more, or disagree with me, but here goes...

Lose these:

You definitely want to lose Kazaa. Filesharing's bad... mmmkay? ;) Besides that, it's well known to bring in a lot of crap (to be blunt) with it. Additionally, I'm not sure exactly what good Panicware's popup stopper is. I've used it, never been too impressed. YMMV, though.

As you also have a coolwebsearch infection there, you should also run CWShredder.

Download CWShredder from here & run it. Select the fix button & it will get rid of everything related to CoolWebSearch that is stored in it's database. Close ALL windows, including IE, 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.
