All of the files you listed were deleted except for PoMas.dll. I just set Hijack This to delete it on a reboot. It did, and I'm glad to say that these pop-ups are completely gone. Haven't had a single one in the past day. Thanks for all the help, it's greatly appreciated.
Sad to say this problem has returned yet again. McAfee scan so far has found the Trojan VeryLince ... very slow running scan.
Spybot & Ad-Aware and various other scans only come up with tracking cookies
I tried going into Windows\System and deleting UTDT but it did not seem to be there.. even though Hidden files are set to be shown.
Here is the latest Hijack This scan ....
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1
Scan saved at 12:43:03 AM, on 8/2/2005
Platform: Windows ME (Win9x 4.90.3000)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP1 (6.00.2800.1106)
I have a firewall through my SBC Yahoo DSL software, is that good enough?
It seems that my Windows ME machine only gets hit with spyware. I have a Windows XP machine running on the same home network and it never has any spyware problems.
Here is the Panda Active Scan result. ALL files have been deleted..either by changing file attributes in DOS and deleting or going into safe mode and deleting. The Panda Scan took about 4 hours to complete.
(had to attach scan result as it was too many characters)
One more question .. the display on my monitor is a little weird. Could this be because of all the spyware? (see attached jpg)
