Help - I'm pathetic at removing malware.
OK so my kid clicked some link on a website and next thing I know I have pop-ups happening all over the place. At the time of infection I was running updated Avast! and Zone Alarm. Avast detected a trojan but obviously didn't remove it completely as I still have pop-ups happening with explorer on or off.
Following the instructions in a couple different threads I found here, I have tried a number of virus/malware scanners including:
Trojan Hunter
Ewido
AdAware SE
MS Defender BETA
Hijack This
Panda Active Scan
Trend Micro online scan

Your HijackThis log is clean. How are things now?
One last question, what's the best defense against this happening again? I plan to run explorer through Sandbox with Avast! and Zone Alarm running as ongoing processes. Then do occasional scans with AdAware and Ewido.
I'm just trying to figure out what the best combo is without bogging the machine down. I must have 20 different programs now that I've downloaded over the past week.
Thanks again and Go ManU.:celebrate
Also, start using Firefox if you don't already.
Hope that helps!
I'l mark this resolved. Start a new thread, if you have anymore problems.
