I know all of you are very busy, and I have another new computer so there is no rush (I've waited a few weeks till after my exams were up to post here). And as two computers are infected I don't expect a quick response - if you're busy it can definately wait.
On the home PC which I'm posting from the infection doesn't seem to be too bad - I can use most applications and can actually still use IE. However, on the laptop which is also infected it seems to have taken a firmer grip (perhaps because the laptop uses XP opposed to the older pc using win98). I did try and post the laptop log first but as soon as I try to log on to geekstogo IE cuts out.
Anyway here is the first log (from the win98 pc). I'll post the laptop's log in this thread if thats ok (if you want me to make a new thread just say so and thats fine).
