I made the mistake of letting my roommate use my computer for a month and came back to a total mess of popups and error windows that cause windows explorer to crash. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

• Re-name HijackThis.exe to kitty.exe by doing the following:
- Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\hijackthis\HijackThis.exe
- Right-click onto HijackThis.exe and select "Rename"
- Type kitty.exe and hit Enter.

• Now, double-click onto kitty.exe (which is still hijackthis) and post back with the new HijackThis log.
