Hello rmuh , welcome to the TC.


You have a LOP infection that often comes together with Messenger Plus. To remove it we will try the simple way first.

Messenger plus is full of spyware and adware if you installed it and did not choose the option not to load advertising support.


1. Go to Add/Remove programs. Double click on "Messenger Plus!" (or click on Remove)

2. The "Messenger Plus! - Setup" is now displayed. Click on the Uninstall button. Note: options displayed on the first screen are not related to the sponsor program.

3. The sponsor screen is now displayed (if you don't see it, search for it in your Task Bar). To prove that someone is currently reading the screen, you have to type the code that is displayed. Once you enter the code, press Uninstall.

4. If you entered the code properly, the program will ask you to confirm that you want to uninstall. You must answer "Yes" to this question, else, you won't have another chance of uninstalling.

5. To complete the uninstallation, follow the instructions that are displayed (the first one is to close all your Internet Explorer windows, that's very important). When everything is complete, restart your computer and, hopefully voila one nasty infection is gone.

You can re-install Messenger plus later, just remember to install without
advertising support.


"copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
I've been struggling with this one.I have uninstalled PLUS as described.I was left with an altered homepage and a new toolbar plus casino and poker icons on the desktop.On the new homepage under the Help section there was an option to run their uninstaller s I did.I have now got rid of the extras but I am back to having this Trojan warning every time I open an IE page.
here's the latest log.

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. 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. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing. :D

Hi, It's all running as smooth as silk,no problems at all. I have Anti-virus and Firewall running and I do use Spybot and Ad-Aware but not every week,will get into the habit from now on. This was a stubborn one,usually I can shift stuff but it had me well and truly beaten. I'm really grateful to you for taking the time to help me. Best regards Sue :wavey:
