I have a windows xp laptop. Been cleaned for 9 months and all of sudden I've been getting popups going to buzznet, setthetrends.com etc.
I've ran spy sweeper, spyware doctor adaware, spybot.

Spyware doctor found trojan.virtumonde. I tried the vundo removal tool and it says nothing found.

I've noticed that there is a geede.dll file in the windows\system32 folder that I believe is causing the popups and cannot remove it.

here is my hijack log

Hi

Navigate into C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis folder and rename HijackThis.exe file -> kenpoman.exe

Post a fresh hjt log after renaming is done. :)
