Hijack This! - Advice Needed (Please)

[E-Liam]

Hi DeepC,

Please run a new HJT! Scan, and check to fix the following entries, being sure to double check that you haven't missed any. Next, close all browser windows and click the Fix checked button…

O2 - BHO: MyWay Search Assistant BHO - {04079851-5845-4dea-848C-3ECD647AA554} - CProgram Files\MyWay\SrchAstt\1.bin\MYSRCHAS.DLL (file missing)

and then delete the following (bolded) folder...

CProgram Files\MyWay

Next, please download AdAware 6 181 from here.

Before you scan with AdAware, check for updates of the reference file by using the "web update". Then ........

Make sure the following settings are made and on -------"ON=GREEN" From main window :Click "Start" then " Activate in-depth scan". Then......

Click "Use custom scanning options>Customize" and have these options on: "Scan within archives" ,"Scan active processes","Scan registry", "Deep scan registry" ,"Scan my IE Favourites for banned URL" and "Scan my host-files". Then.........

Go to settings(the gear on top of AdAware)>Tweak>Scanning engine and tick "Unload recognised processes during scanning". Then........"Cleaning engine" and uncheck "Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion" and check "Let windows remove files in use at next reboot" Then......

Click "proceed" to save your settings.

Now to scan it’s just to click the "Scan" button.

When scan is finished, mark everything for removal and get rid of it.

Next, reboot again and download Spybot - Search & Destroy, from here: if you haven't already got the program.

Now press Settings, and Settings again. Go to the Webupdate section, and check "Display also available beta versions".

Now press Online, and search for, put a check mark at, and install all updates.

Next, close all Internet Explorer windows, hit 'Check for Problems', and have SpyBot remove all it finds marked RED.

Then reboot. I'd recommend that you go here, click Scan for updates in the main frame, and download and install all CRITICAL updates recommended. Include an update to IE6 SP1.

Other than that your log's clean.

Cheers

Liam
