[Swagman]

I got the dreaded smitfraud warning which I managed to get rid of by deleting WP.exe and running adaware but my hom epage under IE has been hijacked

The home page hijacker seems to be this one in the log below
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\system32\shdocpl.dll/security.htm#subID=MPV;401

Is the cure as simple as just checking for deletion under 'Hijack This' and restoring the normal Home Page via Options in IE? I'll wait for your advice anyway

Cheers
Swaggy

Hi 'Thatman'

The procedure worked a treat thanks and the hijack had vanished - normal home page has been restored.

New HT log after procedure posted below, we may relegate this PC to simple 'Office' jobs now so we've taken it off line and replaced it with a new Pentium 4 so we'll have to leave the previous files you mentioned where they are. Thanks for your help though - much appreciated.
