Need Help with Hijack This log...

[The Duck]

wow groove, thanks alot, one thing though, I have already had that vx2 spyware/adware before and I already have the plugin and ran it and got rid of the vx2, or so it says, should that affect any steps in this "operation"? lol.

[groovicus]

Go ahead and do them all, even if you have done them before... I don't know if you ran those in safe mode or not, and that can make a huge difference.

Well, here is my new log, which is significantly shorter .

How does it look now? Btw, Should I run adaware everytime with those new settings? Or should I stick to their "smart" scan? And what did that clean.bat do? Obviously delete some temp stuff but...? Should I keep clean.bat and run it as often as I do adaware, spybot and AV? Under the custom options adaware did fine 7 or 8 files that it missed witht he smart scan. Not surprisingly the plugin didn't find anything because about 3 weeks ago I used it to delete the software already.

Thanks alot for helping me groove!!

[groovicus]

I always run Adaware with those settings...it just seems to do a better job than the smart scan does.

The batch file is no biggy..it's just a simple bat file to clean crap out of the temp files and prefetch folder. Malware such as the peper trojan will rewrite itself in from the prefetch folder, as will Lop hijackers. Also, many times malware will 'hide' in temp folders, so this was my solution for just cleaning all of it out at once...basically it just makes it easier on nervous users, and it is just a standard part of the fixes I help with. You could have done the same manually.

Cleaning the prefetch folder from time to time is not a bad idea though. That thing can get huge!!

You might want to check into SpywareBlaster, or IE-Spyad, that will help you out alot.

Your log looks good. I don't see anything else in there that should be causing problems right off hand. It should be working a lot better now.

Heh, I did find it on google. Google is the all knowing.

[The Duck]

Groove, those programs that you suggested... Do you use them? Are they compatible with spybot, adaware, CWshredder, etc? Do you know of any known incompatibilities? Do both those programs work together? Thanks, I know it seems like a pretty dumb quesiton but when a program does not work because I have something else, that really bugs me lol.

[groovicus]

IE-Spyad puts about 4000 entries in your hosts file..I don't use it, because I don't use IE very often, except for updates.

SpywareBlaster works flawlessly for most. The only problems I have ever seen with it is if there are some remnanats of CWS hanging around, then it won't install properly.
