Thanks for the help,

Welcome to the forum :wavey:

Download combofix.exe from the link below:

Combofix.exe

Save it to your desktop.

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Run combofix.

When finished, it will produce a log for you.

Post that log in your next reply, along with a new HijackThis! log.

Also, tell me what program you are trying to install….
:)

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall
I am trying to upgrade my bitdefender internet security from version 9 to version 10. I get message saying that I already have version 10 installed but it is not listed in add remove programs? Here is the combofix log:
Start Time= Wed 10/18/2006 21:13:59.84

There's one piece of malware to remove, then we'll work on your install problem.

Normally combofix removes this, but it your case it didn't?
:scratch:

We'll do it another way.

Copy and paste the contents of the quote box below into notepad.

Save it as file name: "fixme.reg" (not including the quotes). Save as file type: *All files* and save it on your Desktop.

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\explorer\run]
"{1408CB39-05FD-1033-0224-030621020001}"=-


Then, locate fixme.reg on your desktop and it.

You will receive a prompt similar to: "Do you wish to merge the information into the registry?".

Answer 'Yes' and wait for a message to appear similar to "Merged Successfully".

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Delete all of the following noted (in red) file(s)/FOLDER(s) you can find:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\{1408CB39-05FD-1033-0224-030621020001} <— FOLDER

Some malware files may be "hidden".
Be sure to show hidden files when looking for these file(s) and/or folder(s).

Reboot in normal mode and "copy/paste" a new HijackThis! log file into this thread. :)

Copy the text in the following quote box into Notepad:

attrib -r -s -h C:\Program Files\outlook


Save it to your desktop as ff.bat

Now, the ff.bat file on the desktop.

Then, tell me what files are in these folders:

C:\Program Files\outlook

C:\Program Files\Common Files\fuoo

Do you use Outlook as your email client?
:unsure:
It's not supposed to stay open.

Use Windows explorer to look at the files in those folders.

One of the folders was "hidden".

The ff.bat file "unhid" it so you can find it.
:) :thumbup:

dir C:\Program Files\outlook >> files.txt
dir C:\Program Files\Common Files\fuoo /ah >> files.txt
dir C:\Program Files\Common Files\fuoo >> files.txt


Save it to your desktop as see.bat

It will create a file name files.txt on the desktop.

Open it with Notepad, and paste it's contents in here.
