I have inserted my log. I had a begin2search probelm earlier. When I bring up IE, there is a CAT that appears on the yahoo website that is some type of desktop traffic problem. Many of the words on websites are highlighted and I am not sure why.
Thanks for any help you can give me in advance.

Hi and Welcome to TSF

Before attacking an adware/spyware problem with hijackthis make sure you have already run ad-aware SE with VX2 add-on cleaner, Spybot Search & Destroy (with updated database) and CWShredder as these programs will clean a lot of the crap out first. All links to programs are in my signature. Ok..on to the log…..

Download and run this uninstaller...ClearSearch Uninstaller http://www.hijackthislogs.com/dl/ClrSchUninstall.exe

Open My Computer>>View>>FolderOptions>>View Tab>>Advance Advanced settings box, under the "Hidden files" folder, select Show all files>>Apply>>OK

Reboot into Safe Mode (hit F8 key until menu shows up). Make sure to close any open browsers. Go into HijackThis->Config->Misc. Tools->Open process manager. Select the following and click Kill process for each one if they are still listed (they shouldn't be but make sure)

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WINUPDT.EXE

Check and fix the following in HijackThis if they still exist (make sure you do not miss an entry)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winupdtl] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\winupdtl.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Win Server Updt] C:\WINDOWS\wupdt.exe

Delete the following Files/Folders in RED (delete folders if no filename is specified or they are RED) according to their directory (If you can't find them...do a search for them…make sure you have search hidden files, folders, sub directorys..ect enabled if it applys to your OS)

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WINUPDT.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\BTGRAB.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\DSKTRF.DLL
C:\PROGRA~1\CSBB\CSBB.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\winupdtl.exe
C:\WINDOWS\wupdt.exe

In safe mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Go to Start > Run and type %temp% in the Run box. The Temp folder will open. Click Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Finally go to Control Panel > Internet Options. On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files". Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK. Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button. Click Apply then OK.

Once done reboot into Normal Mode and post a new HijackThis log file to confirm what was removed and if it's clean or not
