Click here to download Spybot Search & Destroy - install, update, scan and fix all RED items it finds. Reboot when done.

Click here to download Ad-Aware SE and install. Before scanning click on "check for updates now" to make sure you have the latest reference file. Click "Start", select "Perform Full System scan" and "Next" to start the scan. When the scan is finished, the screen will tell you if anything has been found, click "Next". The bad files will be listed, right click the pane and click "Select all objects" - this will put a check mark in the box at the side, click "Next" again and click "OK" at the prompt "# objects will be removed. Continue?".

Reboot when done. Rescan with HJT and post a new log here so that any remnants can be removed manually.

Thanks so much Daemon, I updated and scanned with both,removed total of 195 items. i've been having screen saver problems, Have to get rid of Pc Doc, its annoying, everythings sluggish and slow. Any thing else I need?I downloaded Xoftspy and it told me I have a worm and trojen-anal,among other spy progs. I can't figure why the Vcom didn't pick it up though, it's usually right on the ball. :weee: I have the firewall up but possibly something got through with a download. Thanks so much for your time ,see you soon

A bit more to do. First of all could you click Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs and uninstall Shop-at-Home Agent.

Make sure that you have no browser windows open as this could prevent the fix from working properly. Open HijackThis, scan and when complete, remove the following entries by checking the box to the left and clicking 'fixed checked':

Click here, for instructions on how to enable hidden files and folders to be visible. After enabling, reboot into safe mode by tapping F8 after the BIOS has loaded, find and delete the following:

c:\temp\msbb.exe
C:\PROGRAM FILES\WINDOWS SYNCROAD\ <– folder
C:\PROGRAM FILES\WEB_REBATES\ <– folder
C:\Program Files\BullsEye Network\ <– folder

Reboot when done, rescan with HJT and post a new log here for a final check over.

Dear Daemon
I was not able to find (shop at home agent) :unsure: in my add \remove programs. I was able to remove the 9 item in the Hijack this scan. I enabled show all files but was not able to find the entries in normal or safe mode :blink: c:\temp\msbb.exe
C:\PROGRAM FILES\WINDOWS SYNCROAD\ <– folder
C:\PROGRAM FILES\WEB_REBATES\ <– folder
C:\Program Files\BullsEye Network\ <– folder
This is the new scan after removing the items in hijack this. :weee:
Talk again soon. Thanks!

Probably just orphan entries. This one is new - with only HJT running, have it fix:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [DM_Server] C:\PROGRA~1\COMETS~1\DM\BIN\DMSERVER.EXE /onreboot

Reboot and you should be good to go. Post one last log to make sure.

Dear Daemon
Thanks for all your help, think all the spys are gone. I'll have to keep a better eye on what the kids download. How do I permantly remove the items from the start up check boxes in MSCONFIG? :huh: I don't remember if i've been in there before or if it's possible.If you can help me on this great ! Are they totally off my system or will they show up if they are checked again? Also is it enough to just have system suite or do I need more anti-virus protection? :D
