Greetings – you were so helpful in getting rid of the Home Search Assistant problem and I thank you.

Certain problems must still remain however, because I seem to be constantly infected with reoccurring Spyware downloads. Every time I run a system screen the same problems come up. For example:

Spyware detects:

MediaPlex
Advertising.com
AvenueA, Inc
DSO Exploit
SearchForIt

Ad-Aware detects:

ClickSpring
CoolWebSearch
VX2

Pest Patrol Detects:

Trojandownloader.Win32.Agent.dq

I proceed to delete these detections, but after surfing the web and running another system screen they reappear. Where might the problem be?

Thanks for your assistance.

You have an older version of HJT. Please update to the newer version (1.98) from our Security Downloads page. Either install it over top of your existing one, or install it as per these instructions:http://www.short-media.com/forum/showpost.php?p=172584&postcount=2.

Post a fresh log when you have done that, don't worry about posting an active services log.

I believe those are just tracking cookies. I know mediaplex, Avenue A and advertising.com are known for tracking cookies. I don't see anything bad in your log, so that is most likely what your problem is.

O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {91663649-416A-42A5-8E54-B63C1ECA0548} - C:\Program Files\mathies.com\PopThis!\PopThis.dll (file missing)

You can delete those, they aren't bad, but are doing nothing except cluttering up your log, since the file is missing. Also fix this entry:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Thanks for the advice...I have 'fixed' the issues you indicated with HJT. My latest HJT log is listed below.

Meanwhile, as I surf the web and the new page loads I get strange beeping sounds as if spyware is being dropped on my system. This never used to happen before I had the HSA problem.

In addition, even with the latest AVG 6.0 update, AVG notices a virus but cannot get rid of it.

The virus is as follows: Trojan Horse downloader.agent.2.bm

Location: c:\system volume information\_restore{58E30938-66A1-4D08-9DCD-360CE25B3A88}-\RP30\A0001051.dll

Your log looks clean.

I would highly recommend switching browser. IE is so ridden with security holes that it is almost inevitable that you will get infected again. Switch to Mozilla FireFox. Read the article in my sig (How did you get infected....)

To "empty" your system restore, right click on "My computer" --> Properties --> System Restore tab.

Check the box that says "Turn off system restore on all drives"

Then reboot, and turn it back on.

That will get the trojan out of your system restore archives.
