Re: Motherload virus(es)

1. You need the program Hijackthis.exe, not Deckards. Download it from here > http://download.bleepingcomputer.com...HiJackThis.exe

2. It has an entry in Add/Remove programs

3. BAE is GoogleAFE (Browser Address Error Redirector) object which is a browser plugin that redirects browser error pages to vendor customized Google search pages, often found on Dell PCs. This is a non-essential program. You can have Hijackthis fix the entry & delete the folder.

4. {029e02f0-a0e5-4b19-b958-7bf2db29fb13} is what termed as an orphaned entry. It's an entry created by malware. The physical file which it references no longer exist. These should be fixed using HJT

5. Digital Line Detect\DLG.exe is part of BVRP Phone Tools software suite. It offers faxing, phone book, e-mailing. Not an essential process.

6. wklnhst.dat + stfv.bin. I'm not sure which program created them but they are too small to contain malicious code.

An average computer has in excess of 100,000 files. I hope you don't plan to ask me about them. No more such queries please. I'm too busy to be answering them. The time taken to answer this post can be used to help other users.
