Can You Help - Re Hi Jacker

Michael Tfs Cla · 07-04-2004, 01:39 AM

Someone has placed a code on my computer which keeps redirecting my start page every time I start my computer.

I have re entered my start page at My Computer Internet Options Internet Properties and every time it reverts back to:

http://www.mysite.com

How to I fix this???

These mongrels have their own site which No Longer Exists
( GOOD )

See http://www.alexa.com/data/details/tr...www.mysite.com

Can Anyone Help??

I have a Free Traffic Web Page all can use.

Hi Michael Tfs Cla

First, create a folder for HijackThis in the root folder of your hard drive so it can make proper backups

example

C:/HJT
C:/hijackthis

next

Click here to download Hijack This. Save it to the folder you have just created

Close all open windows and open HIJACK THIS. Click “Scan”[/b] . When the scan is finished (it only takes a second), the scan button will change to“Save Log”. Click on“Save Log” and save it to NotePad. Copy the entire log and paste it here.

DO NOT FIX ANYTHING YET , most items that appear in the log are harmless or even needed. Wait for someone to analyze the scan and advise.

Lobos

Thanks for your help.

I still have a problem; because a previous hacker has disabled my ability to download software.

One time a virus gobbled up all my available memory and I managed to use this program to fix it

See link in my news letter

This is a great free to use Virus Scan called House Call

Lobos I will try and use some of the sites you recommended

Thanks Again Michael
