Click here to download DllCompare. Start the Program with and click the Run Locate.com - be sure the \Windows\System32 directory is in the box and wait until the the blue text says it has 'completed the scan'.

Click the Compare button to start the next process. The results appear in two panes - files in the upper pane have been verified to 'exist', files in the lower pane were 'not able to be accessed'. Very few files should be listed in the lower pane when the Compare scan is complete. Click on each of the listed entries in the lower pane to select them. Right-click on the file and use the option Rescan. This will cause Windows Find to see if the file does exist, and then if so it will be removed from the list to reduce the number of identified files.

Click the Make a Log of what was found button and post the log here in this thread and wait for further instructions.

Thank you for helping me. Here it is my new log from dll compare although nothing appear in the bottom pane * DLLCompare Log version(1.0.0.125) Files Found that Windows does not See or cannot Access *Not everything listed here means you are infected! ________________________________________________ O^E says: "There were no files found :)" ________________________________________________ 1,425 items found: 1,425 files, 0 directories.

When replying to your topic, please use the [external image: Posted Image] button NOT the [external image: Posted Image] button.

Click here to download CWShredder and run it, hit 'fix' as opposed to 'scan only'. Reboot when done.

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.

Sorry it took to long but I had to sleep and go to work. Here it is my new log, athough I believe is the same, I run spy aware and csw sheder and spybot, but I think I did something wrong, I believe is because I only erased on the spyaware program what it said malware, and I did not erase all the other stuff like Miner somthing, well here is my new log, if you believe did not follow directions properly, please tell me, and I am sorry for my stupidity. Thank you

Don't worry, you're doing OK. Click Start>Run. Copy & paste the following and click OK.

regsvr32.exe /U ajojfda.dll

You should get a message that it has been uninstalled succesfully.

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':
