Hi Caton160 and welcome to TomCoyote. I need to take some time to look over your Hijack This log to come up with a fix. Please remember that I am an undergraduate which means I need to have my posts to you checked by a teacher or moderator to make sure I'm giving you the proper instructions. This process won't take long and I thank you for your patience. I'll be back with you soon.

I'm afraid I have bad news Caton160, but someone has to let you know. You're running an unpatched installation of Windows with no security updates, no service packs, no firewall and no Anti-Virus software. No one is safe on the internet without the installed service packs even with an Anti-Virus and firewall enabled. Your PC and all your data have been compromised because you also have a backdoor trojan installed on your computer. My advice to you is to back up any important data and reinstall Windows as well as all other updates and service packs.

Though the Trojan has been identified and can be killed, because of it's backdoor functionality, your PC is very likely compromised and there is no way to be sure your computer can ever again be trusted. Many experts in the security community believe that once infected with this type of Trojan, the best course of action would be a reformat and reinstall of the OS. Please read these for more information:



How Do I Handle Possible Identify Theft, Internet Fraud and CC Fraud?



When Should I Format, How Should I Reinstall



Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Once this is done please find below some links to some excellent free Anti-Virus programs and free Firewalls.

Anti-Virus products (once you reformat please download and install one of the below):

Sorry for this news but the chance of re-infection while trying to clean this machine is too great.
