Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1
Scan saved at 5:38:57 PM, on 10/22/2006
Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP2 (6.00.2900.2180)
Thank you for posting that log. Now we know what we are dealing with.
"Please see the note at the top of the forum with information for downloading HijackThis."
If you had downloaded HijackThis using those instructions, HijackThis would not have located itself in a temp folder. Yours seems to be running out of a temporary folder. Please move it to a permanent folder of its own where it can save backups.
Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ folder.
Move your HijackThis.exe to that folder.
Next, please go to Add/Remove programs and remove
VirsuBurster. Whether it is listed or not, please continue.
Remove the folder here IF it still exists:
D:\Program Files\
VirusBurster -- FOLDER
Please run SmitfraudFix again following the instructions above for using Option 2 and AVG Anti-Spyware.
Finally, please post the three requested logs. Thanks. :)
