Spyware and Adware

Expand Post »
I carelessly downloaded something the other night and it left a load of adware and spyware on my pc.

I have managed to get rid of most of it using Microsoft Antispyware, but there are a couple of things which it will not delete, mainly something called 'dns catcher'.

Has anyone any suggestions on how to get rid of this threat?

Re: Spyware and Adware

Please do the following:

Download the latest version of HijackThis:

http://www.stevewolfonline.com/Downl...HijackThis.exe

Once downloaded, follow these instructions to install and run the program:

Create a folder outside of any Temp/Temporary folders for HJT and move it there now. A folder such such as C:\HijackThis or C:\Spyware Tools\HijackThis will do.

Run HijackThis, but do not have HJT fix anything yet; only have it scan your system! Once the scan is complete, the "Scan" button will turn into an option to "Save log...". Save the log in the folder you created for HiajckThis, open the log in Windows Notepad, and cut-n-paste the entire contents of the log here.

The log contents will tell us a lot about what "nasties" have crept into your system, and once we analyse the log we can tell you what to do from there.
