    You do not appear to have any of the services running.

    Let's try this...

    If you have not already done so, set your system to Show Hidden Files and folders. Then, Disable System Restore.

    Then PULL THE POWER PLUG.

    Plug it back in, and boot into Safe Mode.



    Make sure that all Internet Explorer or any other browser windows or internet applications are closed. Do not have any other unnecessary programs running.


    Run Hijack This. FIX THE FOLLOWING:

    Pull the power plug again. Boot up normally, check things out, and come back to let us know how it turned out. Post a fresh HJT log for review. If things looks clean, re-enable your system restore and set a new restore point.

    Please make sure to always do regular Windows Updates. If you do not have Automatic Updates active on your computer, then please click on www.windowsupdate.com, and follow the instructions. Always install all CRITICAL UPDATES.

    You are running Windows XP, and have not yet upgraded to Service Pack 2, please do so, especially if you plan to stay on Internet Explorer. SP2 introduces some security features to help protect you from unwanted downloads in Internet Explorer. Upgrade to XP Service Pack 2 here, courtesy of Short-Media's downloads section.

    Short-Media recommends Firefox for a safer, faster internet browser.

    Please read our article on Defeating Spyware for tips on how to improve your Internet Explorer security, or to learn how to switch to a different browser. For more general information about spyware read this page.

    Finally, if you have not already done so, please take the time to find out more about Folding For a Cure, a good cause by which your computer uses it's spare power to help search for cures to diseases. We would love to have you on our Team.
