Hello, DAC Welcome to the forum. Let’s make a start…

If you would like to clean your machine, please launch Ad-Aware SE and check for any Definition File updates.

Click on the gear to access the Configuration Menu. Click on Tweak > Cleaning Engine > UNcheck "Always try to unload modules before deletion".

Then, please follow the steps listed below.

A. It is suggested that you clean the following directory contents (but not the directory folder ).

Please disconnect from the internet (for broadband/cable users, it is recommended that you disconnect the cable connection) and close all open browsers.

1. C:\Windows\Temp\
2. C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\ Temporary Internet Files \ <=this will delete all your cached internet content including cookies.
3. C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
4. C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
5. C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Local Settings\Temp\
6. Empty your " Recycle Bin ".

Please run Ad-Aware SE just a bit differently, using the command line below that corresponds to your version of Ad-Aware SE:
Click "Start" > select "Run" > type the text shown in bold 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
"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Plus\Ad-Aware.exe" /full +procnuke
"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\Ad-Aware.exe" +procnuke

Click OK.
Note: The path above (between the quotes) is the default location of Ad-Aware SE, if this has been changed,
Please adjust it to the location that you have installed it to.

1. When the scan has completed, select Next.
2. In the Scanning Results window, select the "Scan Summary" tab.
3. Check the box next to each "target family" you wish to remove.
4. Click next, Click OK.

Please shutdown/restart and post a new full system logfile as a reply.


Regards...

Hey Numbnuts. Really appreciate your help. I've done everything you ask, and the scan is just running now. (This is another computer.) Do I copy the system log from this scan or rerun the scan once I've restarted? Also, if it's the latter. do I use the same "run" code you gave me, or just the usual? Thanks DAC

[DAC]

Hi Numbnuts.

Here's the log file. I restarted the computer and ran the programme again.

NOTE: I COULD NOT DELETE 1 FILE. IT WAS IN THE PROFILE I WAS LOGGED IN AS. IT WAS C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temp\se.dll.

Hi johhny rotten

Not sure how I ended up in this. I did post yesterday, but I had deleted it because I realized you this was already being taken care of. So just keep on following numbnuts instructions and things will work out. I apologize for the confusion.
