Please download CWShredder but don't run it yet.
http://cwshredder.net/bin/CWSInstall.exe


Download Ad-aware SE from: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html

Install the program and launch it. First, in the main window, look in the bottom right corner and click on Check for updates now and download the latest reference files. Exit Adaware for now.


Make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

How to see hidden files in Windows

Run Hijackthis again, click scan, and Put a checkmark next to each of these. Then close all other windows--you should only see HijackThis on your Desktop--and click the Fix Checked button.

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply and help me out! I did everything you said to do, but, i still have a few problems. For one, the about:blank homepage still comes up when i open internet explorer, also everytime a new page loads an error screen comes up with the message IFrame or Object. I ran adaware and it came up with 90 critical objects, but i didn't know what to do with them! Should i have quarantined them or deleted them? I just closed the programme down. I also have new icons on my desktop relating to the about:blank homepage from www.ez-finder.com. Theres a spyware remover, an online pharmacy, an online dating, home mortgages and poker icon.

Also, when i came back to fix the hjt stuff, i ran it and some of the things that you said to fix were no longer listed (was this because my brother shut the computer down overnight??) and so therefore i couldn't check them off!
Heres the new hjt log, thanks

For Adaware there's a great tutorial here.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=48

You should quarantine everything that Adaware finds. Just right click, select all objects, and then click Next.


Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here:

ok...sorry for late reply, had a couple of really busy days at uni! Now, i did everything you said to the word, and still i couldn't find a couple of the files u said to fix in hjt. Also, when running adaware (i quarantined everything this time!), norton found heaps of malicious files in the temp folder and one called C:\RECYCLED\DC152.DLL, i just quarantined it to be safe. After all this, i've still got about:blank coming up, but the page doesn't load, it just had about:blank in the address line. I'm also not getting as many popups as before, just a couple here and there and i still have those icons on my desktop. Is there anything else i can do to completely rid my computer of this or is it a lost cause?? thanks

Let's take a look to see if there's a hidden dll causing you trouble.

• Download DLLCompare.
• Double-click on DllCompare.exe to run the program.
• Click "Run Locate.com" and it will scan your system for files.
• Once the scan has finished click "Compare" to compare your files to valid Windows files.
• Once it has finished comparing click "Make a Log of what was found".
• Click "Yes" at the View Log file? prompt to view the log.
• Copy and paste the entire log into this topic.
• If you accidentally close out of the log it is also saved as log.txt to where you saved DllCompare.exe.
• Click "Exit" to exit DLLCompare.

hey, sorry again for late reply! i downloaded that programme and thats the log below. about:blank doesn't come up as my home page anymore, but i still have websearch on my start menu and all those icons on my desktop, also sometimes when surfing unknown sites come up instead of what was wanted (i don't know the name, i got told about this from a family member). Thanks for your help
