I ran the SmitfraudFix tool and it seemed to eradicate the intCodec spyware. Here is the HJT log after doing that. Does anything else need to be fixed? I update and run AVG and Ewido at least once a week, so I wonder why they wouldn't remove this particular infection? Thanks. Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.
