Post #1
I have been conducting (amateur) guerilla warfare on malware for quite some time and would like to (1) further my knowledge and (2) see how effective I've been. Specific points about this computer:
1. This is the one on my network that I believe to have the fewest problems.
2. I have both SpyBot S&D and AdAware installed and run weekly scans.
3. Virus protection is Norton with real-time scanning turned on.
4. I have no specific noticable problems with this system other than a general sense that some of my bandwidth is going somewhere else.

I would appreciate someone looking at my HJT log and advising if there are problems that I should address. The log is below:

I'll post for my 14 year-old daughter's computer separately. I'm quite certain it will be more problematic.

Thanks in advance.

Your log looks pretty good. Do you recognize/use this program? "BroadJump". Some people consider it malware, others don't. Decide if it's worth keeping it. If you want to get rid of it, you should do it via Start - Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs. :)

Here are some tips, to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future, I strongly recommend installing the following applications:
  • Spywareblaster <= SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
  • Spywareguard <= SpywareGuard offers real-time protection from spyware installation attempts.
  • How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
  • How to use Spybot to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware.
To protect yourself further:
  • IE/Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
I also suggest that you delete your Temp folders regularly. Use CleanUp! to do this automatically for you!

Thanks for your input Hans! I appreciate your response. I have a vague recollection that the Broadjump is related to a game one of my kids installed a long time ago – I'm actually out of town on a business trip and won't get to investigate it until the weekend. I'll probably delete it. I have been running AdAware and SpyBot S&D for several months, and will add some of the others you suggest. I also added Micro$oft's Adware Beta version last weekend just to see what it was like. Again – thanks for your response. Keep up the good work! :thumbup: Best regards. You can close this thread; I'll be back in a few days with the log from my daughter's computer, which will undoubtedly be more interesting ;)
