I've been through the system (a friend's) how about three hours now and I can't see where the problem is coming from. I've got rid of a lot of nasties but the old directx.sys keeps coming back. How did they get the file in in the first place? I'd already put on AVG and Spybot with Teatimer to try and stop this sort of thing from happening in the first place. Any info would be appricated. Here is the latest Hijackthis file,
