Dear Team Thank you very much for helping me. I had so much trouble but one of your memebers (Bob4) really helped me - It took us a long time but we sucseeded. Thank you Bob! It still seem though that the computer is very slow. Bob sugested I remove some of the start up programs which I did. but they seems to be comming back when i restart. The home page of Internet explorer can also not be changed. Maybe I'm becoming to old for these new things like computers. Thank you again Jaco

Sorry for the delay
If you still need help and haven't posted at another forum.

Run AVG Anti-Spyware (ewido). Then scan and save the log from the scan.
Instructions and download link can be found here.

Rescan with hijackthis and post a new log with the results from AVG .
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
