"Joystick Search Enhancement" again...
Hi guys,
I noticed someone else had this problem, a while ago, but I haven't gotten it to go away. The exact problem is that whenever there is a broken link, I immediately get sent to errorplace.com.... with the Media Motor's "do you want to install and run Joystick search enhancment. In addition...." you click x, it says you must click yes, you click x on that window, you get the first window again, and you click x again, and it's done--very irritating. I've run AdAware and SpyBot, and SpySweeper, and while it finds Roings Ad Search, and deletes it, it still happens. I've gone into my regedit folder (not in safemode--how do you get into safemode again? Win2k) and deleted the roimoi folders and ssprint. When I test again a broken link it still gives me the same thing, and ssprint folder is put back in the registry. I've only seen it do it in IE--Netscape remains unscathed. You asked the previous guy to post his HJT log, here's mine...tia...

When you have trouble with installer pop-ups, do not try to click NO or the X button to close them. Just hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, select the Task Manager, click on the applications tab, find the appropriate Internet Explorer window (the one with the same title as the window name, or failing that, any blank one) click on it, and click the End Task button. If you need to, end all of the Internet Explorer tasks.
You are running an older version of Hijack This, and you do not have it properly installed. Please make sure that HijackThis.exe is in its own folder, as explained here. Use the link in that post to download the latest version of HJT, v 1.98. Install it properly in its' own folder, scan, and post a new log, and then we can help you.

and fixed it, went to IE, put in a bad link, and it's gone! Great!! Geez! You know the old HJT didn't list it? It's only when I went to the new version (and/or put it in it's own folder) that it saw damn Jimmy! Hey, I haven't rebooted or anything yet, so if you see anything else that needs to be cleaned up or that I need to do further, by all means let me know....
Thanks a million! Again, it's just one hell of an irritant!
It is important tpo have HJT in its own folder in case you, or I, make a mistake in what we remove. If you remove something you need, you can recover it from HJT's Backup folder...but only if you have HJT installed properly so that the backup folder is accessible. Now, technically, running it on your desktop will work...but many people will see the backup folder that gtes created, not know what it is, and delete it! So then it's bye-bye backups. And if people run HJT from a Zip temp folder, the backups are very difficult to locate again.
Having a look at the log, the jimmyhelp BHO is the only suspcious entry, so you were correct in removing it. What I suggest you do now is this:
Set your system to Show Hidden Files and folders.
Manually locate the dll file in the entries above, and quarantine it.
