Hi–This is my HijackThis log (using v1.98.2). I've been having a lot of problems w/ShopNav hijacking my browser. Everytime I think I've got it cleaned up, it comes back. I've got AdWatch running in the background, and also Spyware Doctor. I scan w/AdAware, Spybot Search and Destroy, and now HijackThis as well. Any advice on what I can remove from this log? I'm about to install Microsoft SP2, but I want to get this taken care of first, if I can. Thanks–

Si

Hi, yes–I still need help, here is a new log. I've stopped using IE and started using Mozilla Firefox, and the system seems to be performing better. But I'd like to get rid of the spyware still.
