Hi I installed something yb mistake and it istalled a bothersome toolbar. Is there a way to remove this toolbar? there seems to be no free remover on the net?
Download HijackThis (click the name). Create a folder in C: named HjT. Extract the files to the new folder. Open HijackThis.exe and "Do a system scan and save a log file". Post that log in your next reply.
alright here is the logfile, and by the way the toolbar is named "ie-v". I can see it somewhere on the logfile but I am not gonna delete anything unless you instruct me to. thanks Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 Scan saved at 9:03:13 AM, on 10/21/2006 Platform: Windows XP SP2 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP2 (6.00.2900.2180) Running processes: C:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\spoolsv.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Grisoft\AVGFRE~1\avgamsvr.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Grisoft\AVGFRE~1\avgupsvc.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Grisoft\AVGFRE~1\avgemc.exe C:\Program Files\ewido anti-spyware 4.0\guard.exe C:\Program Files\Microsoft Firewall Client 2004\FwcAgent.exe C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VS7DEBUG\MDM.EXE C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXE C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\spool\DRIVERS\W32X86\3\E_S4I3T1.EXE C:\WINDOWS\VM_STI.EXE C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe C:\WINDOWS\vsnpstd2.exe C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_08\bin\jusched.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Grisoft\AVGFRE~1\avgcc.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe C:\PROGRA~1\Yahoo!\MESSEN~1\YAHOOM~1.EXE C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger\msnmsgr.exe C:\PROGRA~1\NET2PH~1\N2PDialr.exe C:\Program Files\Microsoft Firewall Client 2004\FwcMgmt.exe C:\Program Files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\devldr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe C:\HJT\HijackThis.exe R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/ycomp/defaults/sb/*http://www.yahoo.com/search/ie.html R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/ycomp/defaults/sp/*http://www.yahoo.com R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.yahoo.com/ R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = http://us.rd.yahoo.com/customize/ie/defaults/su/msgr7/*http://www.yahoo.com R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://us.rd.yahoo.com/customize/ie/defaults/sb/msgr7/*http://www.yahoo.com/ext/search/search.html R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://us.rd.yahoo.com/customize/ie/defaults/sp/msgr7/*http://www.yahoo.com R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.yahoo.com R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer = 192.168.2.200:8080 R3 - URLSearchHook: Yahoo!
