Please help me. For the last week my computer has been suffering from constant pop-ups. It will also close browsers during internet surfing and restart completely for no reason, that I can see. I have a cable modem and recently had WinAntivir as a free Antivirus resource but it is constanly notifying me of Trojans and unwanted files even when I'm not surfing. I have installed it recently to avoid the pop up notifications but now all of these problems are starting up. Please check my Hijack logfile and let me know how I've screwed it up this time please? Thanks and happy holidays.

Hello and welcome to the forum.

You have some serious infections and no anti-virus, firewall or anything security related running that I can see.

One infection is a password stealer trojan.

I can't promise we will be able to completely clean it.

Click the HERE and Save, Install, Update and run a full scan.


Empty Recycle Bin

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment

Ok, after I Saved, installed and run the avtivirus program, I rebooted. When the computer came back on, my internet connection was gone. It was also saying a part of the free trial program was not operating correctly. I contacted my service provider for help and they couldn't help me. it seemed that the modem was fine, but the system couldn't renew it ip address. This is another computer, I'm just going to half to swipe and reload the other. Can someone give me an idea of the best type of security software to use so that I don't get these viruses and spyware again? I have spybot, adware, and mcafee. Thanks!
