* Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
* By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
* Click on Install.
* It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
* Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
* Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
* Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" and Paste the entire contents of the log (no attachments) into your (Click –> ) own new topic

hi,

ok thanks for the log.
looks like bittorrent is setup to run when windows starts. this isnt good, only run it when you are actually using it. you can most likely change in the options/preferences
please refrain from using it while we try to get your computer in shape.
i dont see a anti-malware app in your log so i suggest we download, install, update and scan with one.
i suggest you use this one; do a complete scan

http://superantispyware.com/


do this also;
copy (Ctrl C) and paste (Ctrl V) the text below to Notepad. Save it as "All Files" and name it fix.bat Please save it on your desktop.

sc stop Network Monitor Service
sc delete Network Monitor Service
exit

Double click Fix.bat. A window will open and close.

after the above, rescan with hjt and post a new log.

hi,

you didnt get superantispyware? you dont have a antimalware app. you have antivirus, but a antimalware app scans for different threats. you should have one. you have malware on your computer, antimalware software will make the clean up easier.

if you dont want to get superantispyware, then you should at least do a on line scan here:

ESET online scanner:

http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/

uses Internet Explorer only
check "YES" to accept terms
click start button
allow the ActiveX component to install
click the start button. the Scanner will update.
check both "Remove found threats" and "Scan unwanted applications"
click scan
when done you can find the scan log at:C:\Program Files\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt
please copy/paste that log in next reply.
and a new hjt log also.
