Hello soakmesuper, Welcome to TSF! :wave:
There are two ways to fix this issue..
1: Try a System Restore back say, two days before the keygen was used..to do this go Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore follow the on-screen prompts to restore the computer back a couple of days.
2: If Method One does not work; then, I recommend that you read this article… "Having problems with spyware and pop-ups? - First Steps"; follow the instructions very carefully; then, post all the requested logs and information; as instructed, in the HiJackThis Log Help Forum.
(Simply, click on the coloured links to be re-directed.)
Please ensure that you create a new thread in the HiJackThis Log Help Forum; not back here in this one.
When carrying out The 5 Steps, if you cannot complete any of them for whatever reason, just continue on with the next one until they are all completed.
However,it is extremely important to make mention of the fact that you could not complete any of the steps in your post to The HJT Help Forum; where an Analyst will assist you with other workarounds.
Once done, please be patient, as the Security Team Analysts are usually very busy; one of them will answer your request as soon as they can.
Good Luck with it.
Kind Regards,
