Kat,

Let's see what we can do...



Go to Add/Remove programs and remove(uninstall) the following, if present:

TVMedia
Web Savings Ebates

anything with 'search' in the entry that you didn't install.
anything with 'toolbar' in the entry that you didn't install.



Next, go here:

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/adware.binet.html

Then download, and run the Fix Binet tool. Be sure to follow directions on their page.



Download, unzip to your desktop CWShredder and run it, then:

1. Click " Check For Update"

( If an update isn't available, skip to step #4.)

2. Click " Click here to Download the upate".
3. When the new version has been downloaded, click " Save".

4. Click " Fix ->"



Run HiJackThis then:

1. Click " Config..."
2. Click " Misc Tools"
3. Click " Open Process manager"

-

Next, while holding down the CTRL key, locate ( if present) and click on ( highlight) each of the following:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\bcronz.exe

Now double-check and make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted, then click " Kill process". Now, click " Refresh", check again, and repeat this step if any remain.



Now, let's open a command prompt and unregister the dll(s) we're going to remove, by entering the following:

regsvr32 /u CSBB.DLL
regsvr32 /u BTGrab.dll
regsvr32 /u systb.dll
regsvr32 /u gsim.dll

It's ok, if these aren't found or 'error' out. If you want, just copy and paste the individual lines to a command prompt to save on the typing.




Before we begin, let's move HiJackThis to it's own folder; like c:\HJT. When we're done ' cleaning' off your system, we're going to ' flush' the temporary folders which, with HiJackThis in it's current location, we'll lose both the program and the backups it creates. These backups are important in case we need to restore any 'fixed' entry(s) later.

Also move the " Backups" folder, for HiJackThis, if present.



Run HiJackThis and click " Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:
