Let's change our stratergy for the moment. If that doesn't work, we can come back to this method later

Download, install & launch - Webroot SpySweeper (Trial) (8.3 MB)
When SpySweeper starts, please accept any prompts to update definitions. Exit the program after you have updated.

Download and install CleanUp!


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Reboot your computer into Safe Mode.
Restart your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears.
Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.

Run Cleanup! using the following configuration:

1. Click Options...
2. Set the slider to Standard CleanUp!
3. Uncheck the following:
  • Delete Newsgroup cache
  • Delete Newsgroup Subscriptions
  • Scan local drives for temporary files
4. Click OK
5. Press the CleanUp! button to start the program. Do NOT reboot/logoff when prompted.
* CleanUp! will not create any backups!!

Launch & use the diagnostic version of SpySweeper & configure it as followed:
  • Click on the Start button
  • After it has finished scanning, click the Next button
  • Allow Spysweeper to reboot your machine to remove the infected files.

# Reboot back to Normal Mode

Launch SpySweeper & select Results from the left pane
Click the 'Session Log' tab & choose Save to File to create a log.

Post that in your next reply along with a new HJT log.

## IMPORTANT - do not use your computer as you scan.
