Though I have followed the steps listed to a T, I am having a difficult time locating the bogus services I am supposed to deactivate in order to remove HSA. I am kind of a newbie to computers, so I may have made a mistake. Here are the steps I have taken so far...

1) I clicked Start, Run: Services.msc. Unfortunately, none of the three bogus file names were detected.

2) I downloaded and ran "Get Active Services", but again none of the file names showed. Here is the log it generated:

These are the Current Active Services:

    Hopefully that contains all the relevant information. After I rebooted by pulling the cord out of the back, I noticed that my homepage is now google. I was so surprised I decided to try again and have not thus far encountered that infernal hijack homepage. Additionally, I had been having considerable trouble with pop-ups and do not seem to be encountering them anymore, either. Does this mean that my problem is solved? If so, are there any other steps I should take?

    Oh, there does seem to be one bit of bad news: prior to being hijacked, my computer did not attempt to automatically connect to the internet upon rebooting. Now, however, it will attempt to connect using my standard connection immediately upon powering up. If I cancel that operation, it will open the port and attempt again. Do you think this is a major issue? Thanks for taking the time to help out a rookie, and have a great day!

    Not totally clean yet, but close.

    Get rid of:

    Get rid of those, reboot, and post a new log. Perhaps that will help the connection problem as well.

    After I removed the four items you mentioned, I did a hard reboot and ran HJT again. The first item was no longer there, but the other three you mentioned had returned. I'm not sure why they won't stay gone. In any case, here's my updated log:

    Okay, hit ctrl-alt-del to get to task manager. Go to the PROCESSES tab.

    See these processes?
    C:\Program Files\Ebates_MoeMoneyMaker\EbatesMoeMoneyMaker1.ex e

    End them all. Then go to C:\PROGRAM FILES\ and DELETE the EBATES_MOEMONEYMAKER folder. If you cannot delete it, you did not end all the processes.

    Try that and let me know how it goes

    Awesome! Ending those processes allowed me to delete the folder. Anything else I should do?

    Nope, you should be all set.

    Oh, wait, one more thing.

    You SHOULD check out our folding team (Link is in my sig)... We would love to have you join :)
