Ok for some reason Ewido Ignored deleting the folowing file. Plz delete in safe mode.
C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\popcaploader.dll


Also explorer.exe is what the task bar at the bottom of the screen runs ons. The desktop also runs off it so i recommend openning HJT then ending explorer.exe. Then start explorer.exe back up using task manager and then posting the contents of the log here.

Ping.exe is a valid process but jvaw~1.exe is not so lets get started.

First run HJT and check the following.
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Dzqn] C:\Documents and Settings\Family\My Documents\??stem\?ttrib.exe
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: arpa.dll mmc.dll rundll.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\arpa.dll
Close all other windows and click fix checked.

Reboot to safe mode by tapping the F8 key during startup.
Delete the following files and folders.
C:\Documents and Settings\Family\My Documents\??stem\?ttrib.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Family\My Documents\??stem
C:\WINDOWS\system32\arpa.dll
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\JVAW~1.EXE
Reboot Normally and reply with any problems that still exist. Also post a new HJT log.

Plz download HJT from here.

After you download the zip extract the contents to a permanent folder such as C:\HJT or something similar.

Run the program and scan your computer. It will come up with alot of entries.(don't fix anything yet) There should be a save log option. It will save a log of the scan.

Post the HJT log in your next reply.

Extract the content to a permanent folder such as C:\HJT or something similar. Run the program. Choose the option to scan your computer. When it finishes there should be an option that says save log. This will save the log and open up a notepad file. Copy and paste the contents in your next post.

im 75% sure that these 2 are malware and key processes for the pop-ups

C:\WINDOWS\SmFzb24\command.exe
C:\Program Files\Network Monitor\netmon.exe

kylethedarkn 23 A.K.A. The Laughing Man Team Colleague

i dont know if this is adware caused or not but sometimes the computer will randomly shut down on its own from an improperly working fan so you might want to check that

kylethedarkn 23 A.K.A. The Laughing Man Team Colleague

try using xoftspy and get the serial key from theserials.com
i dont recommend going to theserials.com unless you have norton or are using a mozilla firefox browser because if you use internet explorer it will automaticly download some nasty adware
