Andrew21,
I've split your previous posts (and any responses to your posts) into their own separate thread. The thread is located here:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread6013.html
Please read the Private Message I sent you concerning my reason for doing so, and please follow up on your troubleshoot in the thread I gave above as opposed to continuing to post in this thread. The problem posted by the originator of this thread has been solved, so this thread is essentially closed; any new questions by other members, however related they might seem to issues in this thread, should be placed in their own thread.
Thanks,
DMR

I am having a similar problem.
Um, rustanger-
Could you please tell me what part of my post (directly above yours) you did not understand?:"The problem posted by the originator of this thread has been solved, so this thread is essentially closed; any new questions by other members, however related they might seem to issues in this thread, should be placed in their own thread."
Please help us keep things manageable by posting your question in its own separate thread.

Hi Folks,
Hope you don't mind me jumping in here too. I don't have any problems with desktop icons or installed programs not working, but I am not able to consistently use Internet Explorer. I say consistently because the problem is intermittent.
The post above yours applies to everyone. Am moving yours out to it's own thread.

Hi tggoodrich,
First of all- welcome to TechTalk!
We ask that members not tag their questions on to a thread previously started by another member (regardless of how similar your problem might seem). Not only does it divert the focus of the thread away from the original poster's problem, but it also makes it less likely that you yourself will get the individual attention that you need.
Please start your own thread and post your question there. When you do, please try to give us as much specific info as possible regarding the problem (exact error messages, system specs, etc.).
For a full description of our posting guidelines and general rules of conduct, please see this page:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforu...b_faq#faq_rules
Thanks for understanding.

Thanks for understanding tggoodrich.
I know that a lot of forums have no guidelines concerning "piggybacking" onto another thread, but many do; it reduces the chaos and makes it easier to methodically work through each individual's problem. :)

Help!!! Pls kindly assist. Cant even used hijackthis to fix those checked box on my pc cos the 'worm' may have caused the application close promptly after few seconds. Where got time to react to check those boxes???
You are not without recourse. Try runningHijackThis in Safe Mode and see if that gives you enough time to delete the offending startups. There are also alternative tools available to kill the offending processes, including CodeStuff Starter and PrcView . Either of them should work; Starter has a "nicer" interface and can also be used to delete stuff from the startup list, like HijackThis or MSConfig.
Kill the following process and delete the file: C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Desktop\AAAA.exe
Get rid of the following (use HijackThis to check these off and "fix checked"):
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,SearchURL = http://
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,SearchURL = http://
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://

Have Hijackthis fix these as well:
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Network Service] C:\WINDOWS\svhost.exe -sr -0
O16 - DPF: {10000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} - http://213.159.118.226/x/x.exe
Once done, delete the C:\WINDOWS\svhost.exe file.
Also- FlashGet is Adware; you should remove it. Have HJT fix all entries related to Flashget and delete any FlashGet folders/files that you find on your system.

Hi mnh00002- welcome to DaniWeb. :)
One of our guidelines for posting in these forums is that members not tag their questions on to a thread previously started by another member (regardless of how similar your problem might seem). Not only does it divert the focus of the thread away from the original poster's problem, but it also makes it less likely that you yourself will get the individual attention that you need.
Given that, I've split your post into its own thread, which you can find here:
