*******************************


Then..download and run this program in the safe mode

You can find the latest version at Merijn site
http://spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip
and here
http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip


Your Spybot S and D is old and they are not updating it on a regualr basis...the new version is 1.3..you can uninstall the old version and get the new one.

After that is all done post another hijack log..there will be more to clean.

It appears that you have really been taken over ..do you want these in your trusted zone ??


O15 - Trusted Zone: *.i-lookup.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.offshoreclicks.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.teensguru.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.xxxtoolbar.com

and all the cracks ??



If so..then no reason to clean your PC at all..and best to do is just live with it all.

We can help you clean your PC..and give you tools to do it..but we can not compete with all those proggie and what they will end up doing to your PC..so in most cases best thing to do is reformat your hard drive , reinstall your OS then starrt all over.

:zorro:

If you do let that Adaware clean your PC after you have taken off Kazaa and P2P..then you might have to reboot a few times to get all of it. Wave.gif

Then Post another log from hijack this..but only the hijack and not the start up

i updated spybot s&d 1.2 to spybot s&d 1.3 updated
i also downloaded ad-aware 6.181 updated
and cwshredder and ran it in safe mode

i still see two folders on my desktop 1)Online - No chance for spammers - &
2)Fast Loans. these folders change appearances ever so often and
comes back every time i delete them and reboot.

the rundll32.exe error is gone. thanks alot!!

Your log is clean.

You may want to consider remove Wild tangent via Add/Remvoe programs. It usally comes as part of some game packages and may or may not be necessary. If you do not need it, remove it. It can be source of trouble later.

When posting logs, please keep all logs related to the same issue in one thread. It makes it much easier to see the account history. I have combined all your threads into this one.

Make sure you have all Microsft critical updates.

GOod luck, and thanks for coming to Gladiator Security Forums.
