    Just about.


    Go here to learn how to show hidden files/folders:

    http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html#5


    Download CCleaner from here:
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4191.html
    or here:
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner.html

    don't run the tool just yet please.
    Install it. The windows tab should be opened in the upper left of the program. Click analyze and then click run cleaner. Just use the windows tab that is up front by default.

    1.Uncheck "Cookies" under "Internet Explorer".

    2.If you are running Firefox: ,then click on the "Applications" tab and uncheck "Cookies" under "Firefox".


    Now reboot into safe mode by tapping your F8 key upon restart and safe mode screen appears, select safe mode and press enter.

    Hunt for and delete if found:

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\adupdmanager.xml < file
    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\wppp.html < file
    C:\WINDOWS\DOWNLOADED PROGRAM FILES\f3initialsetup1.0.0.15.inf < file


    Now while in safe mode run CCleaner useing the windows tab only please.


    Reboot normal and post a new hijackthis log with feed back on how your computer is running now please.

    Quick questions. While running CCleaner i noticed the 'issues' tab - so i scanned and it found loads of issues/shared files etc.Stuff like McAfee,which i don't use anymore. Can i scan + delete these files, or will it have a knock on effect on other programs ( if they're shared etc )
    Also, ( sorry to be a pain ), but i now have these programs on my desktop:
    AVG 7 Anti-virus
    Spybot S&D
    Ad-Aware SE personal
    CCleaner
    Ewido
    + Smitrem,Panda and CWshredder - somewhere on my pc!
    My Q is, do they run automatically / in the background, like McAfee,(which alerted me to possible bugs), or do i have to run them manually,from time to time?
    Many thanks again. Dave.

    Your log is clean.


    I would keep CCleaner and use it about once a month, windows tab only, as far as the issue tab is concerned if you remove anything with that be sure to back up the registry first. CCleaner has been known to find things it shouldn't when useing the issues tab which deals with the registry. I personally would not do it, anything in there that is old stuff is harmless clutter and doesn't take up hardly any space on your computer.

    keep spybot and adaware check for updates often at least once a week and run the scans and they are scanners and removers.

    I also would keep Ewido even if the trial runs out it will update and scan and remove but will not run in the back ground.

    Uninstall smitrem, unless you put a shortcut on your desktop panda will not need to be removed as it is an online scanner but would scan with it once a month for safetys sake.

    Remove CWShredder it does nothing but remove stuff after infection.

    Are you satisfied with your computer if you are i will have some free programs for your consideration that will keep your computer a lot safer then it is now.

    Never use more than one anti-virus program at a time and the same goes for firealls.

    Let me know if all is ok.

    Alrighty then thanks for stopping by.



    If you are no longer having any more trouble here is some preventative measures for you.

    Here are some preventive measures you can take to keep your computer from getting infected again. also keep all these and Ad-awareSE and SpybotS&D updated.

    http://forums.thatcomputerguy.us/ind...showtopic=1190

    Flush your restore points in ME and XP, by turning System Restore off and then back on.
    This will create a fresh restore point.

    Explained here:
    Windows XP: service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen...src=sec_doc_nam

    Microsoft ME:

    http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...rc=sec_doc_nam


    RegProtect

    This small registry protection tool will save you hours of heartache by notifying you when some program good or bad is trying to access your registry.

    You have the option of allowing(good) items or blocking(bad)items.

    http://www.diamondcs.com.au/index.php?page=regprot


    To reduce the re-infection potential for malware and protect yourself against spyware, here are a few helpful suggestions:

    1. Keep Windows and Internet Explorer current with the latest critical security updates from Microsoft. This will patch many of the security holes through which attackers can gain access to your computer. You CANNOT complete this update using an alternate browser.
    http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.co....aspx?ln=en-us

    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.asp


    2. Run your antivirus software regularly, and to keep its definitions up-to-date. If you are thinking about switching, there are a some good free Antivirus programs that are decent, including AVG and Avast!.
    AVG: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1

    Avast: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html


    3. In addtion to using Ad-aware consider using another free malware scanning/removal program:
    MS Antispyware beta: http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...e/default.mspx


    4. Consider using a free firewall if you are not already using one. Some good free ones are:
    Kerio
    http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Kerio.cfm

    OutPost Personal Firewall:
    Outpost



    5. Consider using an alternate free browser for general web surfing but you must use IE for windows update.
    Mozilla Firefox: www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/


    6. Consider increasing your browser security by using these programs:
    SpywareGuard will protect your homepage from being hijacked: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareguard.html
    SpywareBlaster will increase browser protection by blocking Thousands of known malware sites by adding them to IE's restricted sites zone. Download it here:

    http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html


    If you use SpywareBlaster, you can also use a customblocklist to add even more entries into IE restricted sites zone. Go to this site for the current list and how to use instructions: http://customblockinglist.cjb.net/


    IE-SPYAD is similar in that it adds thousands more known malware sites to IE's restricted zone. Download it here:
    https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm


    *Remember just like your primary anti-virus software, it is important to keep all of these programs up-to-date and use them on a regular basis. It's Free
