Hello,Hoyt & Welcome

1)Get out of Safe Mode

2)Move HijackThis to a folder in C:\Drive like so C:\HJT

3)Try this here see if it helps

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/exefix.reg

Once you click on the link open the file and allow it to import into your registry. Afterwards reboot and see what happens.

4)Go for free online Virus scans here:

http://housecall.trendmicro.com/hou.../start_corp.asp
http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/

Be sure and put a check in the box by "Auto Clean" before you do the scan. If it finds anything that it cannot clean have it delete it or make a note of the file location so you can delete it yourself.

5)Post new logfile & any info you think we should know

HGD

Hi,Hoyt

I found this here if after doing all of the above is a no go
but do what i posted first.

Just because Windows XP has the Add/Remove Programs feature it doesn't mean your application will appear in the list. Furthermore, even if it does appear, it's no guarantee that the uninstall feature will work. When you run across one of these situations the items listed below will help in getting rid of the application. Be aware that these steps may not remove everything associated with the application and can impact other applications on the computer. Have a backup or restore point and use caution.


*

Find the directory for the application and delete all the files in the directory. Delete the directory.
*

Open regedit and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE and find the folder for the application. Delete the folder.
*

Open regedit and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE and find the folder for the application. Delete the folder.
*

To remove the application entry from Add/Remove Programs (if present) open regedit and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall and find the folder for the application. Delete the folder.
*

Some applications have Services attached to them. If this is the case, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es, locate and delete the service.
*

In Windows Explorer, navigate to the individual user settings and delete program references. Common places to check would be:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs and delete relevant entries.
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup and delete relevant entries.
C:\Documents and Settings\%YourUserID%\Start Menu\Programs and delete relevant entries.
[Do this for each User ID listed]
C:\Documents and Settings\%YourUserID%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup and delete relevant entries.
[Do this for each User ID listed]

If no entries were found in the previous step and the application launches automatically, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
and delete the entry.

NOTE to anyone seing this as far as i know this is only for XP

HGD

HGD..sorry for no reply..I've been trying to do a virus scan etc. The biggest problem I'm having is I can't do anything unless on safe mode. I can download on safe mode and when I get off it will not open..just locks up. I can't download or run any programs except on safe mode.
I don't have Netscape on my computer any longer so I went to the other virus scan and scanned on safe mode. It said I had 31 infected files...but would not fix them. I copied the results and when I went off safe mode to try and open them again..it locked up. I opened the avast antvirous I got running and ran it again..it will run when not on safemode...but it came back with about a 1000 files it could not scan.
I'm going to try your suggestion on your last post and see what I can figure out.
Thanks again for all the help.

Here is the latest one..I have to do everything in safemode...could you tell me if that makes any difference as far as downloading, deleting and running programs? Every time I shutdown when not on safe mode Microsoft's anti spyware is running and I get a warning tell me to let it finish..but it won't a warning comes back saying it's not responding...and another program Giantware I believe it is also is running. I have tried on safe mode to uninstall Microsoft's spyware but it will not work.
I'm going to try to download the programs you suggested on safemode and see if that will help. I ran the Hijack scan below as you suggested.

Microsoft's Anti spy ware will not run in safe mode or normal mode. I know it's hung up due to the warnings when attempting to turn off computer. I tried to download it again to rerun, but I can't download it even in safe mode. I get this when I try to uninstall from add and remove programs in safe mode and when I try to download in safe mode..."The windows Installer Service could not be accessed this could occur if you are running in the safe mode or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed."
I also tried to download another antivirous program while in safe mode..and it will not run...

Hi,Hoyt

Ok for now try not to run anything just run HijackThis we will
get to running other progs once we have you clean.

now i think part of your problem maybe this file here
see if it is gone do a file Search for it & if found delete it
do a reboot see how it gos.

fix this with HijackThis
