I've tried everything posted on the tutorial to remove hsa but no luck. Also I've done what is necessary to view my hidden system files( I suspect a couple trojan horses reside there) but again unable. Any help would be greatly welcomed. zkilo :) Oops forgot to include my hjt file.

    You have some entries there that need removing.

    ===============

    Run HiJackThis, click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:


    R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Micr Update] soundblaster.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Micr Update] soundblaster.exe
    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Micr Update] soundblaster.exe

    O16 - DPF: {24311111-1111-1121-1111-111191113457} - file://c:\eied_s7.cab
    O16 - DPF: {33331111-1111-1111-1111-611111193457} - file://c:\ex.cab
    O16 - DPF: {33331111-1111-1111-1111-611111193458} - file://c:\ex.cab
    O16 - DPF: {43331111-1111-1111-1111-611111195622} - file://c:\ex.cab

    O21 - SSODL: SystemCheck2 - {54645654-2225-4455-44A1-9F4543D34545} - (no file)

    O23 - Service: SCA (Service Control Application) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\System32\SYSTEM.EXE (file missing)


    Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

    ===============

    Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you are able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

    Search for...

    soundblaster.exe

    ...using "Start | Search...".

    -

    Note that some of these file(s)/folder(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in "Safe Mode".

    -

    Reboot.

    ===============

    To help protect your system from hostile ActiveX content, or special 'downloadable' files:

    Download, install and keep updated, SpywareBlaster. If you've installed it for the first time:

    1) Check for any available updates; if present, they'll be automatically downloaded and installed.
    2) Next, "Enable all protection".
    3) Exit the program.

    -

    Note: Remember to regularly check for updates.

    ===============

    After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.
