I have solved my first problem and copied my log file. Can anyone help me with the Sddrop worm on my pc? This is a log of the scan from Hijack this.

Sorry you have been passed over.
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

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.

Hi, Thanks for all your advice. I eventually managed to get rid of Sddrop. I don't know how, but it has disappeared. I did run all the online scans so maybe that was it. Thanks anyway. Liscahane59
