I am very confused as to how to remove this from my computer. One site said to boot up in safe mode and then gave all these instructions on how to remove it, another said to use hijack but it seems to you really screw up your computer if you hit the wrong file. What is the correct way to get rid of this nuisance.
Important: Create a folder on the C: drive called C:\HJT.
You can do this by going to My Computer (Windows key+e) then double click on C: then right click and select New then Folder and name it HJT.
Download HijackThis into this folder.
Run it from that folder.
Click "Do a system scan and save a log file".
DO NOT "FIX" ANYTHING WITH IT YET!!!
FIXING THE WRONG THING COULD RENDER YOUR SYSTEM INOPERABLE!!!
