Hi,
I have been hijacked. I ran Ad-aware Se and Spybot but I think it is not all gone. Could you please have a look. Thank very much for your time

Move Hijackthis off your desktop (extract from zip)into a permanent folder. Example:
c:\program files\hijackthis\hijackthis.exe

This will allow backups to be made and saved By hijackthis in case something goes wrong.

Place a check next to the following entries, then close all open windows except hijackthis and click fix.

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O2 - BHO: CB UrlCatcher Class - {CE188402-6EE7-4022-8868-AB25173A3E14} -
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MSCB.DLL (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CashBack] C:\Program Files\CashBack\bin\cashback.exe
O19 - User stylesheet: (file missing) (HKLM)

Then reboot into safe mode and delete these folders.
C:\Program Files\CashBack

You may have to enable hidden files to find all the files.

Then reboot and run another hijackthis scan and post your new log here.
