    Hello,philubuster & Welcome

    First

    Please change the location of HijackThis.exe.
    Create a new folder in your C: Drive
    Name it C:\HJT or HijackThis and move the HijackThis.exe file in it.
    It's best for this tool NOT TO be located in your Desktop or in a TEMP folder.
    This way you can undo any changes if something goes wrong

    Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist:
    Go!Zilla<--Info have a look http://www.oit.duke.edu/ats/support/...e/gozilla.html

    Check the following items in HijackThis.
    Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:

    O2 - BHO: IEHlprObj Class - {CD4C3CF0-4B15-11D1-ABED-709549C10000} - F:\Program Files\Go!Zilla\GoIEHlp.dll

    O8 - Extra context menu item: Download with Go!Zilla - file://F:\Program Files\Go!Zilla\download-with-gozilla.html

    O16 - DPF: {90051A81-3018-4826-8B38-DD60B6B53F9C} (Snapfish File Upload ActiveX Control) - http://www.snapfish.com/SnapfishUpload.cab


    Make sure you can view hidden and system files: Instructions here

    Then Boot to safe mode: Instructions here

    Delete the following files\folders IF still present:
    F:\Program Files\Go!Zilla\<---This folder if you uninstall as said above

    then do a reboot see how it is & can you till why you posted
    a HJT logfile what problem are you having.

    before doing the work above get this prog will help keep the PC clean

    popular programs for doing this, is a freeware program Called Crap Cleaner. Crap Cleaner is a single utility that lets you clear your Cookies, Internet Explorer History, Empty the Recycle Bin, Uninstall Programs, Clear Usage Tracks and much more. As well as this, it has an Advanced Registry Scanner. Using a program like this is one of the easiest methods.

    As for why I posted a log in the first place, I have been noticing recently that my firewall has been alerting me to (seemingly) random windows .exe files attempting to contact the internet. After some searching around I came to a thread from this website and decided it couldn't hurt to post a log of my own. Thanks again for such a speedy response!
