Hi I have been struggling to solve this problem all this morning, I have downloaded AVG but it doesn't run on Vista (Home), I have run AdAware and I have log files for rapport.txt and hijackthis, I have been unable to see where this little nasty is, please can someone help. I need the internet for my work and right now my PC is slow and Firefox will not perform a search, when I type a query it shows the results and then a blank screen appears, bottom left corner it says "stopped". IE7 is much better but IE7 doesn't have all the add-ons that I use in Firefox. Thanks Simone

Your log looks OK. But I recommend you try these three programs. Nod32 Anti-virus Counterspy CCleaner Nod32 offers a free trial and so does counterspy. CCleaner is free. I would use ccleaner to speed up your pc. Just look for guides on google if unsure how to use effectively. Hope this info helps. Let me know otherwise.
Hola Thanks for looking at the log, I knew that I had done something right because the pop up windows had stopped happening I will run those 2 programs you have recommended and come back to you with the results Thanks again
Good stuff! Remember I mentioned three programs. ESET NOD32 Antivirus v3.0 http://www.nod32.com.au/download/trial.html Counterspy v2 http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Home-Home-Office/Anti-Spyware/Download/ CCleaner http://www.ccleaner.com/download/
