Hi, here's a HJT log from my good ol' mom. How I ever got her to run this while talking over the phone line is an amazing feat. :?:

Thanks - pepe99pepe

EZN could be her ISP.

Pepe99pepe, you didn't specify what type of problem your mother was having, but she needs to go to Windows Update to get all the Critical Updates for her system.

Thanks for the help :lol:

Her computer was displaying serious viraul and spyware activity...
Had her load AA, SBS&D, & CWS. Updated and ran all 3. The only appearent thing that is happening is that MS Word 2000 will not open and DUN was broken. So, that's when I had her run HiJackThis and re-installed DUN.

Her PC and Internet is working now, except for B Gates' good ol' word processor. I had her uninstall it reboot then reinstall it o no luck.

And Oh yes...her isp was not ezn and yes I'll have her update it.

Any suggestions on the Word not opening? :o

Can you post the latest log please?
