Then while still in safe mode delete these files.

Looks good :D :thumbup: How is it running any issues?

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. In my signature below is also a tutorial on how to harden IE, a good read and very helpful to stop these things in the future. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on.

Safe Surfing. :D
Awsome! You rock! I had to reinstall mcafee security center, but that was it. Everything works perfect and NO MORE POP UPS! I couldn't make heads or tails out of that log, I don't know how you know all that, but I am glad you do. Thanks again, Dave
