While doing registry edit I noticed occurances of "conish" in addition to conish.exe. I also found occurances of eied. Do I need to delete these too or should I only delete conish.exe as per your earlier instruction?

I'd delete those also.

PC seems to be performing the best ever.... I tried sending you a private message but I got an error saying I couldn't. Is it not permissible to send a PM message here? You guys deserve support from us benefiting from your service. I urge those that benefit from your service to make a donation. I sure will do to show my appreciation.

Please note that "R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = \blank.htm" is still there eventhough I tried to delete it with previous HJT runs. Should I just ignore it?

How about: "O23 - Service: SysEnforce - Unknown owner - C:\PROGRA~1\TRISNA~1\SSI\SYSENF~1.EXE (file missing)"

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing.

I would also suggest you read this:
So how did I get infected in the first place?

[myspace1]

DONE. Words can't say enough to thank you for all your kind help and support. I'll be looking at the softwares you recommended. I just ran AVG anti-virus and for the first time no malwares are reported. My PC is re-born again, thanks to you. God bless you
