From here on in when I ask for a hJT log
Navigate to and find C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis\
Owner.exe
You can
right click that file and choose
send to :
Desktop (create shortcut) for your convenience.
This will post just the HJT portion of the log. No reason for me to see all that DSS see's more than once.
