Greetings all -

I've had Norton AV and Zone Alarm freebee running for some time but about 2 weeks ago I decided to get some added security and DL'd Spybot and Adaware. Spybot detected and corrected a keylogger (name forgotten). All was good for about a week but then Spybot detected and corrected another keylogger (I think name was Retrieve).

I then DL'd a trial spy remover (dcsresearch.com) and did some online virsus scan w/ no others detected. All subsequently removed.

But I'm a little paranoid now not knowing if I can use PC for banking etc. I suspect a trojan may still be on my PC. Here's my log, please help.

And here is some information re protection:

At last, your system is clean and free of spyware! Want to keep it that way?

Here are some simple steps you can take to reduce the chance of infection in the future.

1. Visit Windows Update:
Make sure that you have all the Critical Updates recommended for your operating system and IE. The first defense against infection is a properly patched OS.
a. Windows Update: http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

1. Adjust your security settings for ActiveX:
Go to Internet Options/Security/Internet, press 'default level', then OK.
Now press "Custom Level."
In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned ActiveX controls) to 'prompt', and 'Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe" to 'disable'.

2. Download and install the following free programs]
a. SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
b. SpywareGuard: http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareguard.html
c. IE/Spyad: http://www.staff.uiuc.edu/~ehowes/resource.htm

1. Install Spyware Detection and Removal Programs:
You may also want to consider installing either or both of AdAware (free version) and Spybot S&D (freeware). Use these programs to regularly scan your system for and remove many forms of spyware/malware.
a. AdAware: http://www.lavasoft.de/
b. Spybot S&D: http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en&page=download
