Hi

Yet again another problem with gotomyhit.com. I am suffering from a problem with a pop-up that takes me to some spurious website. Additionally, the program appears to have disabled all administration rights, including in safe mode.

The infection/problem is on a new machine and I have disconnected it from the internet. I was having problems with Microsoft Exchange and was advised to disable the Firewall! Won't be doing that again.

Having read the responses from other people, I have run HijackThis and below is the log file.

Please note that I am a novice and please be gentle.

Any help would be much appreciated,

Thanks and best regards,

Hi I have now managed to run Spybot and Norton 360. Between them they appear to have restored the administration rights and the PC appears to be running OK (ish) The only problems I seem to have are regarding Outlook, it wont run and when I delete and re-install, it still fails. Still that is minor problem compared to the other issues. I still have an issue with IE being hijaked and sending me to some unknown websites, I will post a new log for that one. Many thanks and best regards, Lee1pen
