Hi there everyone,

I'm in desperate need of help to get rid of some nasties that one of my kids has managed to install onto my computer. It's a series of annoying pop up ads that actually start as soon as the computer is logged on. I've tried finding the necessary files but am really stuck! Here is my HJT log. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I know I've always had fantastic help from you guys in the past.

I have noticed that my Internet explorer keeps coming up with error messages and wants to close. The file that is creating the problem is something to do with flash9e.ocx, whatever that is!

Thanks so much

Froot_loop

Lets have a go at this then;

Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE

  • You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
  • Physically disconnect from the internet.
  • Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields) as they could easily interfere with ComboFix.
  • Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log
  • Re-enable all the programs that were disabled during the running of ComboFix..

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.

Hey Crunchie,

Ok, have downloaded combofix and ran it as you asked. Here is the log:

Also here is the new HJT log. Hope you can find something, although I must admit I havent seen the popups today, so all may be fixed. What do you think?
