Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by opening the program, going to config\misc tools, then uninstall & exit. You then have to delete the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked':

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

C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\tskmgr32.exe (please check the name of the folder & get back to me with the name. Delete that tskmgr32.exe file though)

Do a system search for all the other 04 entries I have listed & delete them too. They will likely be in either the Windows folder or the Windows\system32 folder.

In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.

Reboot normally when done then rescan with hijackthis & post that log here.

Go here for an on-line scan & set it to autoclean for you.

Try this scan as well.
