This is driving me crazy...! I managed to recieve this problem sometime today; firstly, I got this virus detected by norton bloodhound.win32 or something of that sort, and now I keep getting these annoying site pop-ups from PSGuard and Bt2net P2P network; my broswer (FireFox) can be fully closed and my internet even off and a page will still pop out trying to connect to either the PSGuard website or the P2P website. And if I am occupying a browser, it'll redirect me to one of the two sites no matter what. Also, I downloaded and installed a program to accelarate my downloads called Throttle v6... however, without my knowledge, there was a crack to it that I accidentaly installed and now everytime I turn my PC on a huge warning letter pops up from the Throttle company saying that they will forward my information to legal authorities for pirating their product; I had no intentions of doing that, I just wanted to use their demo.

Also, occasionaly, this annoying program keeps intsalling itself called Powerscan... I know all this might sound a little confusing but the G2G staff is my last hope before I have no other choice but to format C drive which I really don't want to do.

Please help me...!

For reference:

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order it is mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes. You should 'not' have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.

Go to My Computer->Tools/View->Folder Options->View tab and make sure that 'Show hidden files and folders' (or 'Show all files') is enabled. Also make sure that 'Display the contents of system folders' is checked. If you have Windows XP, the search feature is a little different. When you click on 'All files and folders' on the left pane, click on the 'More advanced options' at the bottom. Make sure that 'Search system folders', 'Search hidden files and folders', and 'Search subfolders' are checked.

For the options that you checked/enabled earlier, you may uncheck them after your log is clean. If we ask you to fix a program that you use or want to keep, please post back saying that (we don't know every program that exists, so we may tell you to delete a program that we think is bad to keep).

The Temp folders should be cleaned out periodically as installation programs and hijack programs leave a lot of junk there. OK, before we go on, I want you to take note of this first. This program will wipe out all files in your Temporary folders, any file extensions that have a tilde (~) in it, .bak files, .chk files, .tmp files and index.dat files. Most of you should be ok with this, but there may be some who need these files. If you are one of them, do not follow this step. Post back a reply telling us about this. So if that's ok, then download CleanUp! http://cleanup.stevengould.org/ (Alternate Link if main link don't work - http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/CleanUp.exe ) and install it. Don't run it yet.

Restart your computer and boot into Safe Mode by hitting the F8 key repeatedly until a menu shows up (and choose Safe Mode from the list). In some systems, this may be the F5 key, so try that if F8 doesn't work. Make sure to close any open browsers. Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist:

Daily Weather Forecast

Run a scan in HijackThis. Check each of the following and hit 'Fix checked' (after checking them) if they still exist (make sure not to miss any):

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://69.50.190.135/?to=FED&from=start_pa...ype=start_page2

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Piracy] "C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\SysUtil.exe" /PIRACY
O15 - Trusted Zone: http://ny.contentmatch.net (HKLM)

Delete the following Files/Folders (delete folders if no filename is specified) according to their directory (if none, just do a search for them) and delete them if they exist:

C:\Program Files\Daily Weather Forecast\
C:\Program Files\winupdates\
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sys209.exe

Run CleanUp! and click on CleanUp! button. Once it's done, you may click the Close button. When asked if you want to logoff, choose No.

Restart and run a new HijackThis scan. Save the log file and post it here.

Good job.
