Post #1
My log follows. I'm using AdAware and I find that popups that I need are blocked, so I turned it off because browsing became so difficult. Now I seem to have some more spyware. I tried switching to Firefox, but missed some of the explorer features so I switched back. Maybe that caused problems? I have both installed, but I use explorer most of the time.
Thanks again for your help!

I'm replying to my post, as suggested because it has been a week since my post. Looks like everyone is really busy, but some more recent posts have replies so maybe mine is lost. Please see post/log below. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

With all other programs and browsers closed, click fix checked.


Step 2
Reboot normally and scan with HijackThis. Post the new log as a reply to this thread.
Please let us know of any complications you had and how the computer is behaving.
Post #4

Here is my previous post. I followed instructions and following is my log following the fix and reboot. I noticed from the start-up scan of AdAware that I still have cookies. I'm not sure why they're not being blocked.

Thanks again for your help.

Your new log is clean.:)

The cookies that Adaware is finding are most likely third party cookies. You can set your browsers to block them.

For Internet Explorer, go to Start < Control Panel < Internet Options and on the the 'Privacy' tab click Advanced. Under Third Party Cookies, set it to block.

For Firefox, open Firefox and click Tools < Options and on the 'Privacy' tab click Cookies to expand it. Check for the originating website only.


Now that everything is fixed, I suggest that you get these programs to help keep the computer clean:

Spyware Blaster - Blocks bad ActiveX items from installing on your computer.
SpywareGuard - Real-time protection from spyware installation attempts
ie-spyad - Puts over 8,000 bad URLs into your restricted sites for Internet Explorer.

ZoneAlarm - Free firewall program if you currently are not using one.

Update these regularly.

Here are three very good and free malware scanners:

Spybot Search and Destroy 1.3
AdAware SE v1.05
Set-up Instructions for Spybot S&D; and Adaware SE
A2 Squared

If you have them already, check to make sure that they are the newest version.

You may also want to read "How did I get infected in the first place" to learn how to better secure your computer.

Be sure to keep Windows and your Anti-virus updated.

Thanks so much. Everything is fine and I downloaded the programs you recommended–including a wireless firewall that we didn't have for our laptop connection.
Your help is great!
