I would love to do it. Will give directions now to ensure there are no hiccups.

unzip hijackthis it into it's own, permanent folder, (Not a temporary folder or the desktop & not directly on your hard drive). Start HJT & with all browser windows closed, press the scan button. When the scan is finished the scan button will change to save. Save the log to a text file, copy the entire contents of the text file & paste it into the body of your post. DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET. Most of what is there is harmless & even necessary to the running of your system.

So I should save HJT to a disk and run it from there? It is currently in the winzip temp. folder.

When crunchie said: "not directly on your hard drive", he meant not in the root (C:) directory. Create a C:\HijackThis folder or something like that and save HJT there.

Okay, I put HJT into its own folder, went into safe mode and ran HJT. Checked the boxes that said "prosearching.com" and deleted them. Restarted computer and it still is showing up. Here is the current HJT log.
