Click FIX CHECKED.

Reboot, rerun Hijack this and post a new log.

this [O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{CAA9D0AD-CF25-4770-A47D-0EF5878340CC}: NameServer = 205.152.144.235,205.152.132.235
]should be all right it ip address for BellSouth.

also for backup reasons hijackthis.exe should be in its own folder .not just in mydocuments folder

Oooopps,

I cut and paste the whole log into notepad as I go thru it, and then repaste here - sorry I missed removing that one.

alright, the problem seems to be fixed, but here is the new hijack log

Then go ahead and open up your browser, and reset your hompage of choice in the internet options under TOOLS :)

Actually, I see you have the same DLL issue as many others I am working with - can you run AdAware for me (with an updated REF file) and post the log, so I can check something out please.
