Hi there,

I have been looking at advice given to other members who have a similar problem to me and went right ahead to try & make it a little easier for you guys :) to help me fix my problem. I have a trojan dropper.small.7.S - little begger!

I've downloaded Spybot S&D, ran & fixed all red errors. Rebooted then ran Adware SE, fixed all critical objects & rebooted again. I have just scanned hijackthis again, and this is the log..

If you still require help and have not post at another forum listed here ASAP members forums
As some of us work here and in the other forums. Posting two forums slows the help needed for others.
Now please make sure that you have the followed instructions on how to :

Set up a HijackThis folder properly to post a log click here.
And you have the newer of HijackThis1.98.2 Download it here

Make sure that you have Scan with Spybot S&D and Ad-Aware correctly click here

Have run at least one online scan, allowed them to delete whatever they find:
TrendMicro HouseCall eTrust AntiVirus Web Scanner Panda ActiveScan
And Note any thing that can't be fixed in your next post

Also Make sure you have the latest critical updates from windows update.

And finely run System Security Suite click here to download
Extract it from the zip file into a folder. Under "items to clear" click all. Then click "clear selected items"

Rescan with HJT and post a new log here using add reply.

If you would like for us to help and have posted at another forum please have them close your thread.
