Can I remove HijackThis and ComboFix, etc from the computer?

Thanks for the help :-)

I'll check into the speeding up, but the computer's not really old -- but hey, it might help.

Thanks again!

Yes, you can delete HiJack This. Here are instructions for removing ComboFix.

• Click START then RUN
• Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK

The above procedure will:

I thought it was clean -- was going well, but now my Trend Micro PC-cillin is popping up that I have 2 viruses - -

VBS_DAVINIA.A

W97M_GOGA.A

What do I do about those?

[Ryan]

Can you please post a log from PC-cillin. If you do not know how to do that, please refer to it's help file (press F1 while in the program).

Will that do??

I don't know which you wanted -- this was the internet security log, so I was not sure if you needed the others.

Both of those take advantage of an exploit in Word 2000. Visit Office Updates and click on the botton for Check for Updates.

Install all updates that it says need to be installed.
