I have been using ebay for a few years and have had the odd problem with phishing. However, in the last week I have had a file download icon appear when the ebay page loads up. The icon asks me if I would like to open or save the file named blank.cgi. If I activate the cancel button or the close cross it reappears after a few seconds. The following appears on the icon :-
File blank.cgi
Server 127.0.0.1
Type application/octet-stream
Size
Opens with (folder icon) blank.cgi
Would you like to open or save the file?
I have turned off my broadband modem and cleaned off all my antivirus programs. I then re-installed Adaware,downloaded the updates and scanned the hard drive. Ditto for Spybot. Ditto for AVG. With a reboot each time.
I have run Hijack this and here is a copy of my logfile:-

Finally, please understand that I am no computer buff and just have a rudimentary knowledge. I look forward to someone trying to help me and will be most grateful for their time.
