Hello ianharvey506, Welcome to TomCoyote forum. If you still need help I will see what I can do.

1) You have LOP: http://sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/adware.lop.html This is complements of the nice folks here: C:\Program Files\MessengerPlus! 3\MsgPlus.exe This has nothing to do with Microsoft or the MSN Instant Messenger. The good news is that Elrond recently posted a fix for it that usually works:

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

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.


3) You are seriously deficient in that you have no Service Pack 1 and you have downloaded none of the Critical Updates for your IE browser. It is not a question of if you will get infected but rather when. I strongly suggest your go here: http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/v5co…t.aspx?ln=en-us and download what windows criticals suggests for your system. I DO NOT suggest you download SP2 at this time.

4) Once you have remove the LOP toolbar and taken care of your security issues, please post a new log in this same thread and we will clean up anything that is left.

Thanks…pskelley
