Hi. I get a "warning, a virus has been detected" from Avast every time I log on. It recommends remove to chest but the message comes up every time I log on. A little window down the bottom of my screen says VBS Malware or similar. I have run Spybot, AVG Anti Spyware, AdAware, Superantivirus...everything I can think of. My internet connection has also been going very slow lately, I dont know if its related to the same problem or not! I am trying as a last ditch effort a Hijack This report. I have never used this before but from what I read on this forum it seems the best way to fix these things. So hopefully can have a look at it for me and advise what I can do. Cheers!!

Hi, thanks heaps for your prompt help. I have done what you asked, I deleted the 2 items from the HJT scan although I couldnt find the winsock32:exe when I went into C:\WINDOWS\system32. Everything else has been done though. The new HJT log and the SDfix report are below.

ok good. your java version is slightly out of date. the how and why: Vulnerabilities/exploits in versions of Sun Java may be responsible for some malware installs via your browser. It is important to keep Sun Java up to date and also to remove older versions which may have vulnerabilites/exploits that can be taken advantage of to introduce malware. * 1. Uninstall old versions of Sun Java via Add/Remove Programs. * 2. Click the Remove or Change/Remove button * 3. Reboot your PC if prompted. to check if you have the latest version of Java and to download the latest version: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp you can delete the sdfix folder from your desktop if all is well you can make a new restore point. the why and how to: One of the features of Windows ME,XP and Vista is the System Restore option, however if a malware infects a computer with this operating system it can be backed up in the System Restore folder. Therefore, clearing the restore points is a good idea after malware is removed. To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account. (winXP) 1. Turn off System Restore. (deletes possibly infected restore point) On the Desktop, right-click My Computer. Click Properties. Click the System Restore tab. Check Turn off System Restore. Click Apply, and then click OK. 2. Reboot. 3. Turn ON System Restore.(new restore point on a clean system) On the Desktop, right-click My Computer. Click Properties. Click the System Restore tab. UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*. Click Apply, and then click OK, then reboot
OK. I have done all this and everything seems to be fine now. No annoying "virus" message on start up! Thanks again for your help.
