Hi
Thanks for getting back to me so soon earlier.

I rebooted in safe mode and run Hijack and fixed all of the points you said, I also went into windows and deleted files C:\WINDOWS\DPLAYSVQ.EXE & C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\DPLAYSVQ.EXE, and emptied the recycle bin.

I rebooted my system and right clicked Internet Explorer - Properties and low and behold in my home page box again was:- http://omegasearch.com/passthrough/index.html?http://www.msn.com/

Here is a new copy of my HJT Lod file, is there anything else I should fix.

I have also run Adaware 6, CWShredder, SpyBot and SpywareBlaster.
Any help in getting rid of OmegaSearch would be much appreciated.

Thanks.....

[Dexter]

Grrrrr, I missed this the first time. Try toasting this, in safe mode:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Deaf junk] C:\PROGRA~1\wave 2 vc\GridDraw.exe

And manually deleting the folder from your hard drive.

Let me know!

Dexter..

[big_ecky]

Thanks very much for all your help on this, that seems to be my system cleared of Omegasearch.

I have attached my Cleaned up HJT log for your perusal.

Can you suggest how I stop getting infected by this again in the future.

Again many thanks for all your help.

Great! Another happy customer :)

Remember to make a new System Restore Point in Windows XP in case you ever have to do a restore.

Yes, you can tighten up your browser settings, using the information in this article: http://www.short-media.com/review.php?r=132 Also, follow the safe browsing tips in our Omegasearch Removal Guide. (http://www.short-media.com/review.php?r=235)

My blood pressure is through the ceiling right now. I have followed all of the steps for the Omegasearch removal, and still am stuck with the search bar covering the bottom of my IE screen, not to mention the rest of the nasties. Here is my log file. I greatly, truly, and sincerely appreciate any help that you can provide. I seem to have gotten something called the ENC TOOL at the same time Omegasearch showed up yesterday. I cannot get rid of it either.

follow the updated instructions here (http://www.short-media.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12173) and use them to get rid of the following:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [BlahDart] C:\PROGRA~1\CREATI~1\Enc tool.exe
O4 - Global Startup: ItsDeductible7PopUp.lnk = C:\Program Files\ItsDeductible7\ItsD7.exe

C:\PROGRA~1\CREATI~1\Enc tool.exe

that should do it, if not post back your updated log and we'll see what we can do

Dont need the Real Player, DirectCD, MusicMatch, or Quicktime to start up either.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [RealTray] C:\Program Files\Real\RealPlayer\RealPlay.exe SYSTEMBOOTHIDEPLAYER
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [AdaptecDirectCD] "C:\Program Files\Roxio\Easy CD Creator 5\DirectCD\DirectCD.exe"
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MMTray] C:\Program Files\MUSICMATCH\MUSICMATCH Jukebox\mm_tray.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime

There are prolly others that start up as well that are not needed. Those are just resource hogs and it will take longer to start your computer.

You're a wonderful human being, mondi.
Five hours after this began, I think IE belongs to me again.
Thanks infinity for the help.
