My computer was infected by viruses, spyware, etc. I have been working to get rid of everything but would like a check of HijackThis log file to see what is left.

Re Run HijackthisAt the Main window select "Open the misc tool section"

When I try to uninstall My Web Search (Outlook, Outlook Express, and IncrediMail) a window comes up with the title "res://C:\PROGRA~1\MYWEBS~1\bar\1.bin\mwsbar.dll/106" but nothing happens.

When I try to uninstall Search Assistant - My Web Search a window comes up with the title "res://C:\PROGRA~1\MYWEBS~1\SrchAstt\1.bin\mwssrcas.dll/101" but nothing happens.

When I try to uninstall Web Savings from Ebates I get the error message "ERROR: Could not execute Main : The system cannot find the file specified".

I have included the HJT log file anyway in case anything has changed.

bamajim,

Ok, I did everything you did but had to boot windows xp in safe mode. After awhile, windows would get the BSOD and reboot. Never had enough time to run HJT. So ran HJT in safe mode. Seem to work OK.

Not all the files you wanted me to delete were there. Here is what was deleted and what wasn't.

C:\Program Files\Error Safe Free - NOT FOUND
C:\Program Files\PartyPoker - DELETED
C:\Program Files\My Web Search - NOT FOUND
C:\WINDOWS\System32\qfsax.dll - NOT FOUND
C:\WINDOWS\System32\hmyvwin.dll - NOT FOUND
C:\WINDOWS\System32\qfsax.dll - NOT FOUND

C:\WINDOWS\System32\tfwhpb.dll - DELETED
C:\WINDOWS\type32w.exe - NOT FOUND
C:\WINDOWS\System32\tmp_ap4.dll - NOT FOUND

Here is the latest HJT log file:
