Hi all,

After a bunch of popups emerged, I ran malwarebytes, superantispyware, housecall 7 and Microsoft Security Essentials. By the time Housecall was reached, all of the problems seemed to have disappeared. Still, I ran Housecall & Security Essentials. Someone please review the following HiJackThis log & advise me on what, if anything, needs to be manually removed. Thanks a big bunch.

Seems fine to my *moderately* (un)trained eye. Bear in mind websites sometimes just bombard you with popups, it doesn't always mean that you have malware installed.

thankz buddy.

Hi, I think I can help if you have Malware. The programs I have listed will preform very detailed scanns and are very good.

If the below programs do not load change their .exe file name (not the shortcut)to something like iexplorer.exe and they will work fine.

Most effective in the following order:
1. Malware bytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-download.php

2. ComboFix: http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe

3. SDFix: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/sdfix.php

4. SmitfraudFix: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/resources/link243.html

5. SpyBot Search and Destroy: http://www.spybotupdates.com/files/spybotsd162.exe

Also ensure you have the newest version of java as some of the old one's have vulnerabilities.
Other things to consider if you don’t already do them a third part firewall, as windows firewall only block incoming traffic, if you are infected you want something like ZoneAlarm which will block outgoing traffic also. Please ensure Windows Firewall is switched off if you install a third party firewall.

I hope this helps.

Thankz.
