    had a look at suggested solution - unfortunately it doesn't seem to apply to my problem - the intrusive orange search facility appears when outlook express is opened...it is superimposed on top of OE and does not appear to be interfering with internet explorer...it is a fairly rudimentary search toolbar at the top of an otherwise blank page which if used then opens up the relevant search results in a full on orange search engine page

    ..behind the irritating orange page in OE the program is still working and receiving emails which i can still access via the "find" facility

    ...any other thoughts very welcome...

    1. Download this file - COMBOFIX
    2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply

    Note:
    Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.


    Post a new hijackthis log also please.

    thanks for the ongoing assistance neal

    the new hjt log and combofix log are pasted below - that combo programme is a scary beastie! i have just noticed that it has reset my computer clock +24hrs...that's why 30/8 is the date of the logs

    looking forward to your further comments and advice

    Unfortunately combofix did not show anything about the orange search engine like I had hoped.


    This file below indicates desktop surveillance software:

    C:\WINDOWS\iun6002.exe - did you install that?

    Info on that: http://www.auditmypc.com/process/iun6002.asp


    More info on orange:

    http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forums/in...4190&forumid=1




    Let's do one more scan with a tool called silent runners and see if it finds it.


    If no joy and that link I provided to you doesn't help then I am out of ideas, maybe call the people that put it there.




    Please download SilentRunners from here:
    http://www.silentrunners.org/Silent%20Runners.zip

    Unzip it to the desktop and double-click on it.
    Silent Runners will ask if you want to skip the supplementary search.
    Please select 'No' to include them.
    The program will take longer to run, but will give us more information.

    If you get any kind of warning message about scripts, please choose to allow the script to run.

    When the scan is finished, a message will pop up and a logfile will have been created on the desktop.
    The logfile is named 'Startup Programs' by default and will be located where the program is.

    Please post the entire contents of this logfile for me to see.

    hi neal

    your link to the pcadvisor site provided the answer in the entry by fredzepp which reads:-

    "Stuartli, thanks for this - I followed your link then went into regedit and deleted the BodyBarPath entry which was calling up the Orange file and this has cleared it, problem solved cheers."

    I copied this advice, found bodybarpath in the registry and deleted it - this got rid of the problem at a stroke

    with regard to iun6002.exe - i did not install this - do you recommend deletion?

    i am planning to surf via firefox using a sandbox in future, as recommended in the 46 best utilities link

    can i just say many thanks for your assistance in guiding me to the solution to solve my problem


    kind regards
    docv

    Save 20% on AVG Internet Security 2012 Suite!
    Good to hear that has been solved.

    As far as that file, after further research it could also be an uninstaller for some program.

    Go to the Google search link below and read about it, it proabably is an uninstaller file for some program, you will see that if you read those search results I got from google.

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search



    If you feel better about it might go and do an online scan with Bitdefender and see what they have to say:




    Go here BitDefender and run an online scan with BitDefender (you will need to use Internet Explorer for this scan). When the ActiveX Control has loaded, click on "Click here to scan" and grab a coffee.

    When BitDefender completes the scan, select the "Detected Problems" tab. Click on "Click here to export scan". Save the file as an HTML to your Desktop. Then click on the saved file and allow it to open with your browser. Go to Edit - Select All then copy/paste that log back here. Post back and let us know what it found (post the log).
