Can't get rid of "xosearchox" toolbar

This is my son's computer and he's forever downloading#%&* from the net. I can't get rid of the xosearchox search bar and think this has something to do with our problems. On the start bar, the most recent programs accessed are missing. Also Spybot gets to a certain point and I get all kinds of exception errors. Anyway, listed below is my HijackThis log. I hope someone can help me.
Thank you for your time.

cstafford,

Everything looks great, But you still need to run HJT and fix this line, do it in Safemode if it won't let you do it normally.

I am going to provide some tips and links to free programs that I urge you to follow to help keep you more secure. You have Service Pak 2 installed but there are windows updates beyond that, you need to keep them up to date. There are instructions below.

When start your computer and at various times, SYSTEM RESTORE creates restore points for you in case you have to revert your system to a previous date, like lets say a month ago, the problem is that the infection we just cleaned is in System Restore and if you ever restored to a previous date, you would be infected again with what we just cleaned. So in my tips, be sure to follow the instructions for System Restore.

Here are some free programs and tips for keeping your system up to date, and to help keep all the riff raff out of your system.


* Now that your clean, we need to erase all possible older infected files that may still be lurking on your system.
* Clean out your TEMP FILES
* This procedure should be run from SAFEMODE for better results.

To Enter SAFEMODE

* Go to START/ SHUT OF YOUR COMPUTER/ RESTART
* As the computer starts to boot-up, Tap the F8 KEY somewhat rapidly, this will bring up a menu.
* Use the UP AND DOWN ARROW KEYS to scroll up to SAFEMODE
* Then press the ENTER KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD

Now, while in SAFEMODE,

* click on START/ RUN, and type %temp% and press the ok button.

This will open up the temp directory that your machine uses. GO TO EDIT/ SELECT ALL and delete all the contents of that folder.
* Do this for each user of your computer.
* Do this same process for%windir%\temp.

NOW RE-BOOT NORMALLY

DELETE TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES

* Open INTERNET EXPLORER
* Click on the TOOLS MENU
* Then INTERNET OPTIONS
* At the GENERAL TAB, (which should be the first tab you are currently on),
* click on the DELETE FILES BUTTON and put a checkmark in DELETE ALL OFFLINE CONTENT.
* Then press the OK BUTTON . This may take quite a while, so do not be alarmed with how long it takes.
* When it is done, your Temporary Internet Files will now be deleted.


Now Empty your Recycle Bin


* Now we need to TURN OFF> TURN BACK ON SYSTEM RESTORE .

This will remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent
any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points
which are likely to be infected)

Turn off System Restore.

* On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
* Click Properties.
* Click the System Restore tab.
* Check Turn off System Restore.
* Click Apply, and then click OK.


Reboot your System


Turn ON System Restore.

* On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
* ClickProperties.
* Click the System Restore tab.
* UN-Check Turn off System Restore.
* Click Apply, and then click OK.
* Now while in System Restore, create a new Restore Point.

* Make sure that your ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE is up to date and run a full scan at least once aweek.
* If you want to use a free program, try this excellent one.

* Run SPYBOT SEARCH AND DESTROY 1.4 > CHECK FOR UPDATES > IMMUNIZEand run a full system scan on a regular basis.
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html

* Run AD-AWARE SE PERSONAL/ CHECK FOR UPDATES and run a FULL SYSTEM SCAN on a regular basis.
http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910…page&tag;=button

* Download and run SPYWARE BLASTER,
* Check for updates and enable all protection. This program will just sit in the background and help keep all the bad guys out.

* Download and install WINPATROL
* This program will warn you when any changes are being made to your system and give you the option to deny the change.

* IE-SPYAD is a one time install, it will put 1000s of bad sites in your Internet Explorer Restricted Zone.
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_down…23332&fileidx;=1

* WINDOWS UPDATES - Enable Automatic Updates
Right click on MY COMPUTER> GO TO PROPERTIES> AUTOMATIC UPDATES and put a mark in the radio button
DOWNLOAD UPDATES FOR ME BUT LET ME CHOOSE WHEN TO INSTALL THEM. IMPORTANT…Just install CRITICAL UPDATES…Do Not install any Driver Files

* Consider surfing the net with the FireFox Browser
It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use them both.
When it asks you if you want it to be your default browser, say NO and take the checkmark out of the box to ask you again. After you use this for awhile, you will want to make it your default.

* There companion THUNDERBIRD MAIL program was highly favored in PCWorld Magazine,, this to has a good spam filter and is more secure than Outlook Express.
http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/

* Now go to START/ CONTROL PANEL> PERFROMANCE AND MAINTENANCE> REARRANGE ITEMS ON YOUR HARD DISK TO MAKE PROGRAMS RUN FASTER
This is the Windows Disk Defragger, run this maybe once or twice a month to keep your system running good.
The first time you run it, it may take awhile.

* Here is a free Firewall from Zone Labs, I wouldn't access the internet without it.
