Hello kylethedarkn, welcome to DaniWeb. My name is Justin and I will be helping you with your computer today. I will be helping clean all the maleware and spyware problems associated with your computer. Throughout my fix if you have any questions on the programs I am having you use don't be afraid to ask me.

  • Place qoofix.bat in your C:BFU - folder. (Important!)
  • Doubleclick qooFix.bat, Close all browsers and explorer folders.
  • Choose option 1 (Qoolfix autofix) and follow the prompts.
  • Please be patient, it will take about five minutes.
  • After the PC has restarted please post another hijackthis log.

Step 2

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only

  • Double-click

ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
If you use Firefox browser

  • Click

Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
