Hi xsaintseiyax,

You’re most welcome, xsaintseiyax.

Just some loose ends to tie up, and then we can let you go home. :)


Reconfigure Windows XP to disable viewing of hidden files/folders:

• Click Start -> My Computer.
• Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options. Select the View tab.
• Under the Hidden files and folders heading uncheck "Show hidden files and folders".
• Check the "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" option.
• Check the "Hide file extensions for known file types" option.
• Click Yes to confirm. Click OK.

NEXT:

Your version of Sun Java is out-of-date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older Java version components and update:

• CLICK HERE to download the offline installer.
  • Select Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 and click the Download button to the right.
  • Check the box that says Accept License Agreement.
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language.
  • Save the file to your desktop.
• Next, uninstall your currently installed version from Add/Remove Programs.
• If you have older versions listed uninstall them also. If you simply update to the new version it leaves the older versions still installed, complete with previous vulnerabilities.
• Examples of older versions in Add/Remove Programs:
  • Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2
  • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0
  • J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 2
• Reboot your system.
• Install the new version by double-clicking on the file you downloaded.

Everything looks great --- your HijackThis log appears to be clean.

Please take some time reading this list; it is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.

• Windows Updates (a must!)
  It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. You can either click on the link above and bookmark the updates page, or open Internet Explorer, then go to the Tools menu -> Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  
  
• Firewall (a must!)
  It is definitely a must have. Some good FREE versions are Comodo, Outpost, or ZoneAlarm.
  Note: You must only use 1 (one) firewall at a time because if you have 2 or more firewalls running at the same time, they will conflict with each other and make your security less reliable. Please also remember to turn off Windows Firewall once you have installed a new firewall.
  
  
• Anti-Virus (a must!)
  It is also a must have. I would recommend this excellent and FREE program, Active Virus Shield powered by Kaspersky (NOTE: please do NOT install the Security Toolbar that comes with it).
  Other good and FREE alternatives are AntiVir, Avast!, and AVG.
  Note: You must only use 1 (one) AV at a time because if you have 2 or more AVs running at the same time, they will conflict with each other and make your security less reliable.
