Reboot afterwards in SAFE MODE. If you don't know how click here
Delete the following files and folder listed

C:\Program Files\WindowsSA<
Some of these files and folders might have the hidden atribute
How to show hidden files and folders in Windows Instructions here

Reboot

Then Download System Security Suite. Extract it from the zip file into a folder.

Under "items to clear" click all. Then click "clear selected items"

Reboot and Rescan with HJT and post a new log here.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.


And just for a check up.

Download then and run CWShredder to clean up clicking "FIX" to have it remove all it finds.

Little Eagle thanks for the help so far. You've gotten rid of most of the problems. The only outstanding thing left is I"m unable to so a system scan with Norton AV 2004 nor am I able to start Trojan Hunter or Trojan Remover. Although Norton now boots up enable where it didn't before. Here is my latest HJT.

Again thanks for the help

OK still no go on the Norton Antivirus. I've uninstalled 2004 and intalled 2003 system works. Scanned the system before i started and i'm still unable to update norton or scan with it. I've done all you've said with those online scans they found one Trojan but its not changed the Norton problem. Any other ideas???? Thanks Again Dumbazz

Did as you said and everytime I scan with HJT that fservice.exe shows up. I was able to somehow start NAV and it popped up right away saying there was a Trojan. Reginv.dll, Backdoor.prorat. I tried to remove it as it said on there website but did not see the files where they said they would be using regedit. I know i'm getting close.

I'd just like to say thanks to L.E. for all the help. I was unable to get rid of the Trojan. Norton did finally find it but was unable to remove it and I had no luck what so ever with using there instructions to remove it. I just kept showing up. I even tried pulling that Drive and putting it into my own computer for a scan but nothing showed up with Norton. I finally gave up and am now formatting and installing XP again (Fun Wow :angry: ) If anyone has had luck getting rid of the Backdoor.Prorat virus I like to hear how they did it. Anyway thanks again Dumbazz
