PLease scan with Hijack this again and put a check beside these lines and Choose FIX

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Then reboot and post a log. How is your system running now? That should be all of it but one more log to be sure. Then I will give you some information on how to try and prevent this in the future.

Looks good :D :thumbup:

Ok you ready for the fireside chat? :weee:

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. In my signature below is also a tutorial on how to harden IE, a good read and very helpful to stop these things in the future. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on.

Safe Surfing. :D
