Hi xandavid,

Before we start I need to ask whether this is a home machine or a work computer. In the case of a work machine, I also need to ask if it's OK to fix the machine - in many organizations the IT Department are the only people authorized to make system changes - can you confirm this for me?

Could you also confirm whether you have administrator rights on this machine - otherwise the fixes we need to do won't work. If you're not sure, open Control Panel->User Accounts, under your logon name it will say either Computer administrator or Limited account - let me know which one it is.

If this machine is infected and on a network with other computers connected, it's possible that they could also be infected. Please let me know about this in your next response.

I can't see any malware in your log, this doesn't mean you're machine is clean, but can you tell me what symptoms you are experiencing and why you think your wireless adapter has been hijacked?

We'll do a couple of scans:

Please do an online scan with Kaspersky:

Open Kaspersky Online Scanner in Internet Explorer

You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky,
Click Yes.
  • The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
  • Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT and then Scan Settings
  • In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
    • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    Extended (if available otherwise Standard)
    • Scan Options:
    Scan Archives
    Scan Mail Bases
  • Click OK
  • Now under select a target to scan:Select My Computer
  • The program will start to scan your system.
  • Once the scan is complete, click on the Save as Text button and save the file to your desktop
Note for Internet Explorer 7 users: If at any time you have trouble with the accept button of the license, click on the Zoom tool located at the right bottom of the IE window and set the zoom to 75 %. Once the license is accepted, reset to 100%.

please download F-Secure Blacklight (blbeta.exe)
  • Click I ACCEPT and download the graphical user interface version to your Desktop
  • Double click the file to run it, choose I accept the agreement then press Scan
  • It will create the fsbl-xxxxxxx.log on your desktop.
  • The log will have a list of all items found.
  • Do not choose to rename any yet! I want to see the log first because legitimate items can also be present.
  • Exit Blacklight and post the contents of the log in your next reply.
Once complete, please post the Kaspersky log, the Blacklight log and a new HijackThis log and let me know about the questions I asked.

Hi, Do you still need help with your machine? If the instructions are unclear or something isn't working, please let me know before proceeding.
