Hello and welcome to TomCoyote forum. It is always important that you tell us what the problem is, if you still need help, since this log is from 6/3, do this:

1) You are running HJT.exe from a .zip file in a Temporary Directory. This is unsafe as we will have no backups. That is why you received this message when you used HJT: http://russelltexas....nsafefolder.gif
Please use the information in the following link to place HJT in a permanent, safe folder, I prefer C:\HJT\HijackThis.exe. If you need additional instructions use these: http://russelltexas....tehjtfolder.htm

2) Start > Control Panel > Add Remove programs and uninstall C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Toolbar\ see this information:
http://www.clickz.co...cle.php/3561546
http://www.greatis.c...viewmgr.exe.htm
http://www.spywarein...4.php#viewpoint
While there uninstall any other program you know does not belong there. If you are unsure let me know and I will look.

3) Supply me with as much information about the problem as you can including any error messages "word for word"

4) Post a new HJT log reflecting the changes.

Thanks...pskelley

Thank you for the response. Unfortunately since last week the problem has only gotten worse.. I put HijackThis in its own directory, and deleted Viewpoint Toolbar as you instructed... The popups come in many different forms... There is one for "CheapTickets.com", there is a popup that starts by saying there is an error in your registry, and when you try and close it says something that, and if you close that it opens a website that wants you to purchase a program to get rid of the popups...

Here is the new HijackThis log:

Thank You Very Much!

Hello and thanks for the additional information. I see no popup blocker and stuff like CheapTickets.com is one my blockker has to stop all of the time. Popups are a part of surfing the web, you can block them or put up with them. I suggest:
http://toolbar.googl...m/index_xp.html I also suggest just the basic toolbar/blocker not all of the junk that just wastes resources. Try it out to see, make sure you activate the blocker in Options.

I also suggest you uninstall this program: C:\PROGRA~1\SECRET~1\secretsmiles.exe I do not trust anything aol give away free. If later once you have the computer running well, you can try the program again to see what happens when it is installed.

We do have additional junk that need to go, please do this:
Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O3 - Toolbar: Viewpoint Toolbar - {F8AD5AA5-D966-4667-9DAF-2561D68B2012} - C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Toolbar\ViewBar.dll
O8 - Extra context menu item: &Viewpoint Search - res://C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Toolbar\ViewBar.dll/CXTSEARCH.HTML
O9 - Extra button: Absolute Poker - {EFFF8D47-D060-4108-B761-E8EC86622E56} - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Absolute Poker\Absolute Poker.lnk
O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Absolute Poker - {EFFF8D47-D060-4108-B761-E8EC86622E56} - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Absolute Poker\Absolute Poker.lnk

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.n...1916458,00.html

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Absolute Poker\ <<< folder

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\ <<< folder

C:\Windows\Prefetch\ >>> delete the contents (NOT THE FOLDER)
Prefetch info: http://www.windowsne...refetch-XP.html

If you don't have a good cleaner, use this free one with these instructions:
Download CCleaner from this link: http://www.ccleaner.com/ Review the instructions http://www.ccleaner.com/help/tour1.asp
Run CCleaner, Windows & Applications when you run the registry cleaner (Issues) you will be prompted to backup before you can remove stuff, make sure you do.

Post a new HJT log and let me know how things are going.

Thanks...Phil

But other then that things seem to be working better ... i havent seen any of the popups yet...
