Hi Joeeey,

I'm not finding anything horrible here.

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.

Right click HijackThis.exe and run as administrator.

Click on 'Do a System Scan Only', and 'check' the following entries:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {02478D38-C3F9-4efb-9B51-7695ECA05670} - (no file)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file)
O16 - DPF: {1D4DB7D2-6EC9-47A3-BD87-1E41684E07BB} () - http://ak.exe.imgfarm.com/images/noc...tup1.0.1.0.cab



Click 'Fix Checked' and close HijackThis.

however i did do a free online one a few weeks ago which said i had a problem, but changed the name of the "cloaked Malware" everytime i scanned, so i thought it might just be trying to get me to buy it and went back to Norton.
Where did you do a free online scan, and what was the 'cloaked Malware' name?
