Logfile...Please help!

Hello,

I was recently helped by Micah 6:8 in removing some malware and asked for his assistance in removing istbar.exe from my computer. I have had little luck, even when going into the registry keys and trying to remove them that way.

Now I seem to be having different problems. When I'm browsing certain phrases are double underlined and linked to different sites like "urban myth" or "red wine" these seem to be imbedded ads to ebay or some tv show site. Very annoying! I also noticed a link bar that appears below my address bar in IE that I don't want there. I haven't downloaded anything recently, and have been visiting only trusted websites. Could these problems be related to my issues with "istbar.exe"? Anyway, here is my HJT logfile:

Hello Micah,

I have had little luck with this "istbar.exe" even when going into the registry keys and trying to remove them that way.

Could these problems be related to my issues with "istbar.exe"? Anyway, here is my latest HJT logfile:

(p.s. - I started another thread that I have yet to receive a reply about, when I realized that the new issues are likely to do with my problems with istbar, I figured I'd ask you about them. I hope this doesn't confuse things with you all)

Hey Micah,

I did as you instructed, but may have messed up the order. See I didn't have SpyBotSD on my computer and rather than have to find it and install it after running HJT I downloaded and installed it first. It tried to interfere with me removing some of the registry keys, but I managed to complete the procedure.

I ran adaware and removed the entries. Then ran SpybotSD and was able to remove all but one entry called: "ISearchTech.SideFind" Spybot tried to remove it again at startup but to no avail.

Here is the most recent HJT logfile. Please note the entries in bold. These entries have me wondering.

Hey Micah,

Did as you suggested. Here is the logfile for HJT, followed by a logfile of RegScan.

Istbar entries are still appearing, though some of them are related to a utility designed to remove Istbar that I downloaded from Symantec. Which didn't find anything btw. I think the utility might be out of date, but they haven't updated it.
