thankyou - D

hello again ,i move the thread to the virus fourm as that is where the hijackthis logs are to be posted ,i don't read logs anymore myself ,but do see abit in it , like the mywebsearch stuff .
see if you can download and run AVG antispyware tool free trial .
http://free.grisoft.com/softw/70free...ee_428a818.exe

if you do get to use hijackthis it is recomended that you unzip it to a folder of its own like c:\HJT, as you are running it from with in the zip folder .

does that mean i make a new folder for the hijackthis icon and put it in it? and leave the hijackthis.zip file empty??

thankyouuuuuuuu - D

You've definitely got spyware on there. MyWebSearch for one, and I rate that as a nasty. You also seem to have a heck of a lot of programs running at startup (many of them HP ones).

Personally (and it IS just a personal view), once a system starts playing up like this I advise people to think about a clean install because you can never be sure what damage has been done. Even if you get the stuff off, it can leave 'holes' behind which become apparent at awkward times.

Damn. Okay. So what do you recommend that I do? Where should I start first? I actually managed to delete alot of preinstalled games/programs that came on my computer. So I hope that helped. I also managed to get into some programs like the internet and such.


Ps; Thankyou for the help. I REALLY appreciate it!! =)
