Howdy joker35,

Welcome to WTT. Infection is showing here, in different stages of removal looks like. Let's continue repairs now.


As it may interfere with repairs, Disable SpySweeper and keep it disabled until all repairs are complete.

1.) Open it click >Options over to the left then >program options >Uncheck "load at windows startup".
2.) Over to the left click "shields" and uncheck all there.
3.) Uncheck "home page shield".
4.) Uncheck "automatically restore default without notification".
5.) Exit the program.

Unfortunately Webroot has made a very questionable business decision by adding an option to install the Ask Toolbar with SpySweeper - you may have noticed this offer in a recent update. Ask is the product of a vendor of other software well known as adware/spyware, IAC (see here). So the choice to have and use a protective software, that brings software from an adware vendor to the system, is one you might consider here.


Be sure to temporarily disable all other protective software when doing these next steps.

Download ComboFix.exe from here to your desktop, and click the downloaded file to run the repair.

When the command window opens, select 1 (and Enter). Allow the scan to run. When completed a text window will appear - please copy/paste the contents back here. This log can also be found at C:\ComboFix.txt.

A caution - do not touch your mouse/keyboard until the scan has completed. The scan will temporarily disable your desktop, and if interrupted may leave your desktop disabled. If this occurs, please reboot to restore the desktop.


Then post back a new HijackThis log along with the combofix.txt log please.
