Hi Tinaq

Hi Tinaq,
Thanks for taking the time to look at my problem. I've followed your instructions after printing them out. One of the files you mentioned was still present when I ran hijack this in Safe Mode ( 549B5CA7 etc.) and I deleted it. There were 60MB of temporary files on my computer, so much for windows XP clean up! I then saw a file called HKCU.\..\ Run:[ptech]C:\Windows\system32\ptech.exe. I had a virus called ptech on my computer before, about two month ago, called prutec d and found it to be an application called ptech in my system32 folder. For that reason I deleted this file from my hijackthis log too. I hope I did the right thing. Next I ran clean up again, it was fine. Upon rebooting in Normal mode I ran Hijackthis again. Interestingly the file you mentioned 04 HKCU\..\Run:[mfcctr]C:\\Windows\system32\mfcctr.exe had appeared as had FDD3B846 etc. I deleted those and ran hijack this again. This is the log I'm posting now, I don't see anything in it that looks suspicious to me!
