Hey there,

Just looking for advice on what to do. I downloaded a trojan, worm, and a malware virus and have been able to delete most files. I am still having pop ups and this buffer overrun detected message in c:WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE which I suspect is related to my wallpaper concern. I also cannot delete two files that are a trojan program ( gebbc.dll and lkkfrkro.dll )Here is my log:

Hi fridgbuzz,

I removed the email address from your post because spammers 'harvest' email addresses from forums like this one and if they get your address you will be inundated with spam.

You appear to have no antivirus software running. Without antivirus software your computer is very vulnerable and can easily be infected at any time so it it is essential you have one active at all times.

There are several free packages available, two of the most popular are here:
Antivir: http://www.free-av.com/
Avast!: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

If you have no antivirus program then download and install one immediately, update the definitions and set it to update automatically.
Please ensure you have one antivirus program installed before continuing


Next, navigate to the HijackThis folder with Windows Explorer:
C:\Program Files\Hijackthis
Right-click the HijackThis program file HijackThis.exe and rename it to scan.exe
If you have a shortcut to HijackThis on your Desktop it will no longer work, so please delete it and make a new one by right-clicking scan.exe and choosing Send To->Desktop (create shortcut)

Now open HijackThis, select Open the Misc Tools section
Press the Open Uninstall Manager… button, then press Save list…
Save the Uninstall log to your Desktop and include a copy in your next response.
Now press Back and Scan and then Save log to create and save a new HijackThis log.

Once complete, please post the uninstall list and a new HijackThis log.
