I am having problems when using some websites. I am using a travel website and cannot open the link for the calendar and the "go" button after entering times and places. I have seen a similar thread here and download hijackthis.

I am using Windows ME and Explorer 6 with all the updates. Here is the log from hijackthis:

I'm hoping you can help me with this problem. I'm not very computer savy so could you use plain english with you advice.

Thanks in advance.

The HijackThis scans show the obvious toolbars/BHOs were removed but a proxy/auto‑config entry remains in the Internet Settings (this explains intermittent “Cannot find server / DNS” failures when some links are routed through a PAC/proxy that is missing or hostile). ’s cleanup was the right first move, but the remaining AutoConfigURL entry needs direct removal because it changes how IE resolves and routes requests. (learn.microsoft.com)

Practical next steps (do them in order and reboot between major changes): clear any proxy/auto‑config in Internet Explorer via Tools → Internet Options → Connections → LAN Settings (uncheck both the automatic configuration script and proxy options). If those boxes won’t stay cleared, remove the AutoConfigURL value from HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings (export that registry key first as a backup). These GUI and registry entries correspond to the same automatic‑proxy setting. (learn.microsoft.com)

Also inspect the hosts file for forced redirects: on Windows Me the file is plain text at C:\Windows\hosts — remove any lines that map the travel site (or other web hosts) to strange IPs and keep the default localhost entry. If saving is blocked, malware may have changed permissions; safe‑mode editing or a repair/reset of the hosts file is recommended. (someonewhocares.org)

Refresh the network resolver and test: on Win98/ME use winipcfg → Release All → Renew All, then restart the PC; on newer Windows use ipconfig /flushdns. After that, compare a ping to the site name versus a ping to its IP and run nslookup to confirm whether name resolution or the proxy chain is failing — this distinguishes DNS problems from connection/proxy problems. If AutoConfigURL reappears after reboot, the proxy is being reapplied by a startup item or service and that component must be found (check Run/RunServices, scheduled tasks and startup folders) and removed or quarantined. (support.usr.com)

If these steps don’t restore normal access, a fresh HijackThis log after the proxy/hosts changes will make the remaining cause clear.

Download CWShredder from & run it. Select the fix button & it will get rid of everything related to CoolWebSearch that is stored in it's database. Close ALL windows, including IE, before running CWShredder. Reboot.

To help prevent this from happening again, install the patches for the vulnerabilities that this hijacker exploits by going here for your critical updates.

Download & instal Adaware from
& update it B4 scanning.
In settings under 'scanning,' have it set to
'scan within archives,'
'scan active processes,'
'scan registry,'
'deepscan registry'
'scan my IE Favourites for banned URL's,'
'scan my host's file.'
In 'tweaks' under 'scanning engine' set it to 'unload recognised processes during scanning.'
Also in 'tweaks' under 'cleaning engine' set it to 'Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion' & 'let Windows remove files in use at next reboot.'
Select 'activate in-depth scan' before starting scan.
When the scan is finished select 'next.'
Remove what it finds by placing a check in the box to the left of the object. Reboot

Download & instal Spybot S&D from Update it B4 scanning. Go into settings & have it check for Beta releases also & download if available.
After the scan is complete, have spybot fix everything marked RED.
On the page that first opens when you start Spybot there is an option to immunise, you should do this. In the immunise section there is also a link to download Spywareblaster. This program will prevent the install of bad activex controls that it has knowledge of. Download that & you can keep it updated by selecting the same link that you use to download it. Reboot

Uninstall Mywebsearch from add/remove programs.

Reboot after doing this & post another log please.

I have tried the website I was having problems with and it still won't work properly. I would appreciate any more help you can send my way.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked' :

O13 - WWW. Prefix: http://

If you still have problems after removing those two, try configuring your proxy to bypass the page you are having trouble with.
