    Hello !

    I've just recently been infected by a Trojan and other malware/spyware (etc). Basicly it keeps shutting down explorer.exe and gives you two options "check solutions in the net, or restart the program". Well, it has 2 options but it does only one of em. Installing softwares and running programs can be a pain in the ass, as it won't usually run them. I'm quite good with computers normally, but this Trojan got me off-guard.
    So here is my HJT log. Hope it'll help, thx :)).

    sorry for bumping. just wanted to add some info, the mouse is now moving on its own. not always, though. It tries to go to mature sites and so on. Left-click is now right-click and vice-versa. The virus can now actually send me msgs and control this computer !! this is very nasty, I understand you're not robots, but I need that help asap.

    Did some researching, it appears this virus is called Poison Ivy. It tweaks some stuff right when I login, making my explorer.exe crash for a while. After that it crashes firefox.exe, even though I'm not running it. Maybe this would help you a bit. Getting this virus off from my laptop would be very nice, heard it has a keylogger supplied with it.
    Thx again.

    It's getting rather annoying. He can move my mouse even though I'm not connected to the net... dunno how he does that tbh.

    Been a whole day. Hoping someone could spend some of their time with this. :((

    Hi,

    Your system files are badly infected by the virus. The Trojan and the virus has taken the full control of your system. For removing those virus you have to install the latest anti-virus program, if you can't install try first stopping all the Non-Microsoft services and startup programs.
