Hi shalane.

You appear to be running two real-time antivirus programs - AVG and AntiVir. This is a bad idea as it can cause conflicts and other problems. It is actually counter-productive: you get less protection, not more. Please uninstall one of them before doing anything else. Reboot your computer afterwards.

Please uninstall ewido security suite. This program has been replaced by AVG Anti-Spyware, which I am going to ask you to download later. If you had the the paid-for version of ewido, please see here for details of how to obtain your new license code.

—————————————————

Update Java Runtime:

You are using an old version of Java. Sun's Java is sometimes updated in order to eliminate the exploitation of vulnerabilities in an existing version. For this reason, it's extremely important that you keep the program up to date, and also remove the older more vulnerable versions from your system. The most current version of Sun Java is: Java Runtime Environment Version 6.
  • Go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
  • Click on the link named Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6
  • Click on the radio button to Accept License Agreement
  • Click on Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language and save the downloaded file to your hard disk
  • Go to Start => Control Panel => Add or Remove Programs
  • Uninstall all old versions of Java (Java 2 Runtime Environment, JRE or JSE)
  • Reboot your computer
  • Delete the folder C:\Program Files\Java if present
  • Install the new version by running the newly-downloaded file, and follow the on-screen instructions.
  • Reboot your computer
———————————————-

HostsXpert

Download HostsXpert and unzip/extract it to your Desktop.
  • Double click on HostsXpert.exe to launch the program.
  • If you see red text in the box under Editing Tools:
    • Press the Make Hosts Writable? button
  • Press the Restore Microsoft's Hosts File button and OK
  • Click on Make Hosts Read Only to secure it against further infection.
  • Exit the programme.
——————————————-

Run HijackThis and click Scan and then check (tick) the following, if present (don't worry if any are missing):

O1 - Hosts: 66.98.136.25 auto.search.msn.com

Close down all programs, browsers and other open windows. Make sure that only the above items are checked and then click on Fix checked.

AVG Anti-Spyware:

Download the trial version of AVG Anti-Spyware from here and install it. When the program has been installed, and you click the Finish button, AVG Anti-Spyware will open. Do not run a scan yet.

If the program does not automatically update itself during installation, or you are unsure whether it has done so, please do the following:
  • Click the Update icon at the top and under Manual Update click the Start update button.
  • The program will either update or inform you that no update was available.
You will need to change the following settings:
  • Click the Shield icon at the top and under Resident shield is… click active. This should now change to inactive.
  • Click the Update icon and untick the automatic update option.
  • Click the Scanner icon at the top and then click the Settings Tab.

You can now close AVG Anti-Spyware. Do not scan yet.

—————————————————

Boot to Safe Mode.

You will need to reboot your computer into Safe Mode for the next steps. It would be a good idea for you to print these instructions, as you will not have access to the internet.

Important: If you have an always on connection to the internet, physically disconnect that connection until you are finished with Safe Mode and have rebooted back into normal mode. I suggest that you print out these instructions.
  • Restart your computer.
  • Continually tap the F8 button as your computer is booting (a menu appears).
  • Use up-arrow key to select Safe Mode and press Enter.
————————————————

Run AVG Anti-Spyware:

Close all open windows and then start AVG Anti-Spyware, which you downloaded earlier
  • Click on Scanner on the toolbar.
  • Click on the Settings tab.
    • Under How to act? - make sure that Quarantine is selected.
    • Under How to scan? - All checkboxes should be ticked.
