Home search assistant/Hijack This
Hi,
I posted a thread alittle while ago but can't find it. i have run microsoft antispyware, adware se, pest patrol, spybot, norton 2005, hs remove, aboutbuster, and then followed your hsa removal guide but it is still there.. I see alot of suspicious files in my windows and system32 folders but am afraid to delete them. Microsoft antispyware keeps warning me that a BHO is trying to take over but everytime i go and delete the file it makes a different one. these people should be shot. can someone please help me I am posting a log I just made. This has already screwed up some of my software for my job and cost me many hours. I would really appreciate any help anyone can give me.
Thanks
Rob

Step 5
Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files.
Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"
Step 6
Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok
Scroll down and find the service called Network Security Service. When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.
Step 7
