Post #1
I have a pop up that despite my best efforts, just cannot be found by any adware removal software I've tried. Everytime it comes up IE has the line "Ads served by uskyOnline" in it. Nothing crashes, but its uber annoying. I'm posting my log with this, I hope I'm doing this in the right section. Thank you for your help in advance.

Welcome to the forum :wavey:

Disable Microsoft Windows Defender:
We need to disable your Microsoft Windows Defender Real-time Protection as it may interfere with the fixes that we need to make.
  • Open Microsoft Windows Defender. Click Start, Programs, Windows Defender
  • Click on Tools, General Settings.
  • Under Real-time protection options, unselect the Turn on real-time protection check box
  • Click Save
After all of the fixes are complete it is very important that you enable Real-time Protection again.

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

Run Hijack This!
Click "Do a systen scan only".
Then "check" the box to the left of these item(s):

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {549B5CA7-4A86-11D7-A4DF-000874180BB3} - (no file)

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {BA52B914-B692-46c4-B683-905236F6F655} - (no file)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ms0692725-12066] C:\WINDOWS\ms0692725-12066.exe

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.elitemediagroup.net

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.media-motor.net

O15 - Trusted Zone: *.mmohsix.com

Then click "Fix checked" and close Hijack This!.

Reboot in "safe" mode.

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

c:\windows\ms0692725-12066.exe <— file

c:\windows\octeltpop.exe <— file

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. :)
