Hey,

Got this trojan earlier and have been working on cleaning it up. I've completed most of the steps from out topics on it, starting with all the usual ad-ware scans. I've taken care of the change to my background (deleteing wp.bmp wp.exe etc, and deleting the system folder in regedit). One thing seems to be left is the change to my browser (IE 6) homepage, I just can't get rid of it.

Here is the HijackThis Log

I bolded the two that seem to be connected to taking over my browser, but everytime I try and fix them they come back next scan including try to remove them in safe mode. ATM, apart from the browser hijack I don't see any other effects on my system, but of course after saying that :tazz:
