I can't open the My Documents, My Computer, or any of my main desktop icons. It says WINHOT32.DLL has something to do with it. I see I need Hijack This which I just downloaded and here is the log:

Hi SectoR, welcome to GTG!

Have you run Ad-aware? Download the latest version of Ad-Aware from here (if you already have Ad-Aware installed, make sure that it is the latest version and always go online and update it before you run it).

After installing AAW, and before running the program, you must FIRST update the reference file following these instuctions. (and you must always do this before you run the program at any later date).

Now do the following:

Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Scanning Engine:
check: "Unload recognized processes during scanning."

Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Cleaning Engine:
Check: "Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."

Press "Scan Now"

- Check option "Use Custom scanning options"
- Check option "Activate In-Depth Scan"
- Press "Select drives\folders to scan"
- Select the active partition which is usually C:

Now press "Next" to let Ad-aware scan your drives. It will find a number of spyware files and registry keys. Right-click in that pane and choose "select all"

Now press "Next" again. It will ask you whether you'd like to remove all checked items. Click OK.

Finally, close Ad-Aware, and reboot.

Run Hijack This again and post back a fresh log.

This is new log file after the Ad-Aware scan. I also noticed that my computers performance is slowed also. Thanks for any help.
EDIT: And i don't know how I got the tafbar and dynamic toolbars. How do I remove them? And if you see anything else weird, let me know what to remove. Thanks again.

[admin]

You still have some suspicious files. Before we start cleaning up your log please run a free online virus scan here:
http://housecall.antivirus.com/

And a free trojan scan here:
http://www.moosoft.com/

[SectoR]

I ran both progs. First didn't find any, and The Cleaner found a trojan which I deleted and rechecked registery keys. I also just updated my firewall, and McAfee.
Thanks for your help. Does it look better, so you can help me remove stuff?

Reboot in safe mode (by tapping F8 at startup and select safe mode from the menu).
Be sure you're able to view hidden files, and remove the following files in bold (if found):
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SPYTECH SOFTWARE <- this folder

Reboot your PC.

If you would please, rescan with HijackThis and post a fresh log, and let us know how your system's working.

Congratulations! Your system is CLEAN

How do you prevent spyware from being installed again? We strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster (it's free for personal use).

Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
Consumes no system resources.

Download, run, check for updates, download updates, select all, protect against checked. All done. Check for updates every couple of weeks. If you have any errors running the program like a missing file see the link at the bottom of the javacool page.
Link to SpywareBlaster: http://www.geekstogo...tion=show&id=12

It's also very important to keep your system up to date to avoid unnecessary security risks. Click Here to make sure that you have the latest patches for Windows.

These next two steps are optional, but will provide the greatest protection.
1. Use ANY browser besides Internet Explorer, almost every exploit is crafted to take advantage of an IE weakness. We usually recommend Firefox.
2. Install Sun's Java. It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine .

It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder if everything is working okay.

After doing all these, your system will be thoroughly protected from future threats.

[cuddlemonster]

Here is a temporary solution to hotbarsearch.com

on a xp comp open a webpage and go to tools and go to manage addons

PLEASE NOTE ONLY WORKS WITH NEW XP SERVICE PACK 2 - SECURITY CENTRE

After this finishes loading it will display the hotbar seach crap just highlight it then the boxes whited out appear do disable and it stops it from loading all the porn crap to favourites and the browser hijacking.

hope this helps
