I really hope u guys can help me with this, thanks for your time

Dexter

When you installed Messenger Plus 3, did you choose the option to NOT install the Sponsor program? Becuase the sponsor program is a browswe hijack known as Omegasearch by the C2 Media company, one verison of which is "searchweb2."

Try running our OmegakillerSM program, specifically designed to uninstall this.

http://www.short-media.com/download.php?d=294

However, they have realeased some new variants in the last couple of days, which OmegakillerSM does not always clean up entirely, so if OmegakillerSM does not work, then try uninstalling Messenger Plus, then re-installing it and making sure to choose NOT to install the sponsor program, as per the image this thread:

http://www.short-media.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19537

Let us know if this info worked for you.

When you fix those, close HJT, and then PULL THE PLUG on your computer - do NOT shut it down properly.

Turn it back on, and post a new log.

Now, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL and go to task manager. Click PROCESSES tab.

END ALL IEXPLORE processes:

c:\progra~1\intern~1\iexplore.exe
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE

I see three in that log, but however many you have, END THEM ALL.

Then, go to C:\PROGRAM FILES\ and delete the folder called TEST EL something. It starts with TEST EL

Then go to C:\WINN\ and delete the file IETie.dll.

Now, PULL THE PLUG on your computer - do NOT shut it down properly.

Turn it back on, and post a new log.

SpywareShooter

MSN Messenger is legit, but Messenger Plus 3 comes bundled with spyware. It looks like you just have a few more things to clean up, but nothing is of any harm

O2 - BHO: IEWatchObj Class - {9527D42F-D666-11D3-B8DD-00600838CD5F} - C:\WINN\System32\IETie.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [MessengerPlusUninstall] C:\WINN\system32\cmd.exe /C "C:\DOCUME~1\TEMP\LOCALS~1\Temp\MsgPlusUninst.bat"

Fix those entries then find and delete msgplusuninst.bat and you should be all set.
