Solidishness

Hello, I recently started using Prevx to uninstall a bunch a Malware, and I must say it has done an excellent job...so far. Well like most I now have the tk58.exe trojan. I Jail it and remove it with Prevx but when it it reboots, it's still there. Occasionally my Firefox Window will act like it is about to run something else and I'll have to click the window again to do anything on the page. I'm a bit new at this and I have downloaded HijackThis so if anyone could, please walk me through getting rid of tk58.exe and anything else that might be wrong. I'm not sure what to do with HijackThis so please walk me through that as well.

Hi Solidishness and welcome to TSF

Follow the HJT - 5 steps against malware link in my sig. You'll find complete instructions about what steps you need to take to clean your computer the most you can before posting an HJT log. Post your final log in the HijackThis section of the forum where security analysts will review it. Be patient, the security techs are very busy due to the number of logs to be reviewed but they'll get back to you eventually.
