I guess the problem is solved? Or does the fact that the toolbar exists mean that there is still some spyware on my computer?


Hmmm, tricky. Sorry, I missed this the first couple times. This is a new one to me. It looks a lot like the legitimate Google toolbar, but it's not!

Please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put an X in the boxes, only next to these following items, then click fix checked.
O8 - Extra context menu item: &Google Search - res://c:\program files\google\GoogleToolbar2.dll/cmsearch.html
O8 - Extra context menu item: Backward &Links - res://c:\program files\google\GoogleToolbar2.dll/cmbacklinks.html
O8 - Extra context menu item: Cac&hed Snapshot of Page - res://c:\program files\google\GoogleToolbar2.dll/cmcache.html
O8 - Extra context menu item: Si&milar Pages - res://c:\program files\google\GoogleToolbar2.dll/cmsimilar.html
O8 - Extra context menu item: Translate into English - res://c:\program files\google\GoogleToolbar2.dll/cmtrans.html

Now, you're clean. <_<

Great! Thanks for all the advice and help on fixing my computer. Hopefully no one I know will have problems with spyware, but if they do, I'll be sure to recommend this site! Thanks again!
