Re: This "Virus" is causing difficulties

Run Hijackthis and go to the process viewer by going to Config, Misc Tools, Process Viewer, to unload all instances of the following running processes;
AOLCLIENT.EXE


Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows, and hit the "Fix checked" button.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [AOL 9.0 Optimized] AOLCLIENT.EXE

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here and navigate to and delete the following if found:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\AOLCLIENT.EXE<----file

Reboot normally after doing the above, rescan with hijackthis, then post that log here please.
