I could't find & remove your request per "Search for negligible risk entries", and probably they exist in the attached log-file.
Please advise how to procced

Welcome!

Ad-aware has found object(s) on your computer

If you chose to clean your computer from what Ad-aware found, follow these instructions below…

Make sure that you are using the * SE1R43 06.05.2005 * definition file.


Open up Ad-Aware SE and click on the gear to access the Configuration menu. Make sure that this setting is applied.

Click on Tweak > Cleaning engine > UNcheck "Always try to unload modules before deletion".

Disconnect from the internet (for broadband/cable users, it is recommended that you disconnect the cable connection) and close all open browsers or other programs you have running.

Then boot into Safe Mode

To clean your machine, it is highly recommended that you clean the following directory contents (but not the directory folder);

Run CCleaner to help in this process.
Download CCleaner (Setup: go to >options > settings > Uncheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours" for cleaning malware files!)

* C:\Windows\Temp\
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\ <- This will delete all your cached internet content including cookies.
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
* Empty your "Recycle Bin".

Run Ad-Aware SE from the command lines shown in the instructions shown below.

Click "Start" > select "Run" > type the text shown below (including the quotation marks and with the same spacing as shown)

"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Professional\Ad-Aware.exe" /full +procnuke
(For the Professional version)

"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Plus\Ad-Aware.exe" /full +procnuke
(For the Plus version)

"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\Ad-Aware.exe" +procnuke
(For the Personal version)


Click Ok.

Note; the path above is of the default installation location for Ad-aware SE, if this is different, adjust it to the location that you have installed it to.

When the scan has completed, select next. In the Scanning Results window, select the "Scan Summary"- tab. Check the box next to any objects you wish to remove. Click next, Click Ok.

If problems are caused by deleting a family, just leave it.


Reboot your computer after removal, run a new "full system scan" and post the results as a reply. Don't open any programs or connect to the internet at this time.

Then copy & paste the complete log file here. Don't quarantine or remove anything at this time, just post a complete logfile. This can sometimes takes 2-3 posts to get it all posted, once the "Summary of this scan" information is shown, you have posted all of your logfile.

Also, keep in mind that when you are posting another logfile keep "Search for negligible risk entries" deselected as negligible risk entries (Mru's) aren't considered as a threat. This option can be changed when choosing your scan type.

Remember to post your fresh scanlog in THIS topic.

Thanks,
I've done exactly what you adviced.
Attached is the final log-file (still, was run in "safe mode" )

At the moment I switched on the internet (to send this quote), I noticed that still pop-ups still remain.

Please advice how to continue.

Hello again.
We'll continue with this..
I noticed, that you have over 70 entries on your Hosts file.
If you haven't added the listings to the hosts file yourself, or if you haven't installed any programs which would change your hosts file, I suggest you to do this;
download the "Host file viewer" by Option^Explicit. It is a 65K program which will allow you to find/view/open/read/edit/restore to default settings your hosts file. Instructions are on the display screen of the program. Select the option to restore to default settings.

After restored your hosts file, run a rescan with "Full system scan", and post the log here.

Thanks again,
I followed the instructions, and the attached zip-file includes the results.
However, I've also added more information / results that emerged.
For example, AVAST! anti-virus is working in the background, & finds viruses, Pest-Patrol finds something's else. All the findings are described in the attached a.doc, within the zip-file.
Maybe there is a mixture of problems, so:
1. How can I know which host to remove ?
2. Maybe I need to re-install IE, or upgrade the security , or
3. re-install service pack 1, or 2 ?

Are you still having problems?

YES, I HAVE : Exactly the same as I posted in last quote.
Please advice.

Hello everyone,
I have problems using the Internet explorer. I can use it only in safe-mode as administrator (as at this momen).
I know that my computer is affected by some malware. I've tried to clean it, some times it helps for that moment.
My question is:
Should I try to repair the windows-XP-Pro of my computer ?
I assume that this will correct the missing files needed fot IE correction.

Thanks and regards

Hi, hava33, please post your logfile in this thread so we can see what is on your system, I see you have included your logfile before in an attachment...please don't as it may deter help! Please post the logfile in this thread. Thx

Hello,
Attached is the final log. It looks as if everything is OK.
I still have problems such as : I can not activate MS-internet explorer in normal mode, but in SAFE_mode with network: This is the reason how I can send this mail.
