Crunchie

Sorry for the interruption Spywareshooter.

You are missing the very top of your log. You should post it so we can make sure you are up-to-date . Looks like you are running 1.97.7 version of hijackthis. If so, please update it to 1.98.2.

Make sure you close all Internet Exploder Windows when fixing with hijackthis, or the fix will not work. This window too!

Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows, and hit the "Fix checked" button.

Reboot into safe mode and delete these;

C:\Program Files\websx< folder
C:\WINDOWS\system32\fuawcw.exe< file

Reboot normally after doing the above, rescan with hijackthis, then post that log here please.

Edieman

Hi,

Thanks for the tips . I have updated to version 1.98.2 and carried out your instructions. When I re-booted in safe mode I couldn't find either of these files to delete;

C:\Program Files\websx< folder
C:\WINDOWS\system32\fuawcw.exe< file

I looked both manually and with the find and search function but still nothing. I guess we must have deleted these earlier on in the process.

Here is the new log complete with the top part

Boot into Safe Mode (press F8 at the BIOS screen when booting) and do the following:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows AdControl] C:\Program Files\Windows AdControl\WinAdCtl.exe

Fix that entry then find and delete "Windows AdControl", boot back into Normal mode and post a new log.

SpywareShooter

Your log looks okay now. Are you still having any problems?

Edieman

Hi Spyware Shooter,

Everything seems ok now, no pop ups and my machine seems to have grown a pair of fresh legs. We would be lost and at the mercy of unscrupulous companies without people like you! Thanks for all your help

Lastly, should I download your Spyware Shooter sw? If so, does it need to run all the time or adhoc?

Thanks again!

Edieman

SpywareShooter

You can download Spyware Shooter if you want, however I would reccomend waiting a few more days (maybe longer) until my webserver comes back up, so I can upload the lastest version. The current one is about 3 weeks old, so it is not up to date. Spyware Shooter is a one time install, and will always be on. You cannot choose whether to run it or disable it (unless you want to spend hours in the registry).

Edieman

OK. I'll wait a few days and then download it. Hopefully it will keep the majority of these programs at bay.

Thanks again.
