Hi! I'm new to the forum...I'm trying to help my grandmother out by fixing her computer. She has her homepage set to her ISP's homepage, but she has it set so that it shows all her links to her email and such. You can see them for the time that it's loading, but then once it's finished, it goes away and she's given a prompt to log in. When she logs in though, she still can't access that page with all the links on it. I have no ideas left; her computer doesn't have any system restore points set for her to go as far back before the problem began; there are no viruses on her computer, and i'm stumped!!! Please help! I don't know if this will give any help, but here is the HijakThis log:

OK, you've got evidence of both "spyware" and a possibletrojan/virus in that log. You say that there are no viruses on the computer; did you use a good (Norton, McAffe, etc.) anti-virus program with the most current virus definition updates to thoroughly scan the system? If not, do so.

- Once you've doen a virus scan, read this thread to find out how to download and use Ad Aware, SpyBot, and other free utilities to clean the nasties out of your system.

- It appears that you had IE open when you ran HJT; HJT cannot fully do its job with the browser running. Close all open programs and run HJT again. Have it fix the following:

- You should uninstall System Soap Pro, as it is ad-driven.

- Reboot and delete all of the files referenced in the "04" HJT entries above. Delete the entire GMT and slmss folders.

- Delete your cookies and the contents of your Temporary Internet FIles folder; purge your browser's cache.

- Empty your Recycle Bin.
