my protowall was blocking outgoing packets going to "Atrivotechnologies[CWS/trojans]" or something like that..
in the taskmanager i saw several new processes i hadnt seen before, such as popuper.exe and msole32.exe.
however other than the taskbar, my pc was not responding, at least i couldnt click on any icons..
at this point i started trying to fix this on my own
i started by opening msconfig and checking for new auto start entries, i uncheckt all that were new to me (like popuper.exe etc.. i dont know which ones they were exactly.. as they are not in the auto start menu anymore.. not even uncheckt..) and rebooted.. many of the new processes in the taskmanager were now gone, and the desctop background was now not black but white, in the middle of my screen was antivirus gold scanning my harddrive..
i then downloaded the new version of hijackthis scanned and had the log checked automatically on their website.

i rebooted and antivirus gold was gone.. however i still couldnt open anything on the desctop. there were at this point several instances of "drwtsn32.exe in the taskmanager. once i closed down one of them my pc would run as always.. for about 3 seconds. i repeated this until it somehow did it on its own.. every 3 seconds. as it is right now the white background (detailing how to reinstate active-desctop by the way) will disapear, revealing my old wallpaper and quickly going back to the white background. in every one of those ticks, all windows i have open will shut down. except ie, which is why im able to post here..
at this point i stumbled across this site, and read the " You Must Read This Before Posting" topic.
i ran clean-up and ad-aware. ad-aware found 221 infected objects in the first 3% of scan.. then it crashed.. presumably the 3sec ticks i described earlyer were interfering with it. i waited for an hour but nothing changed.. i then clicked cancel, hoping i could at least fix those things it had already found, but there was nothing to be fixed
i then ran CWShredder and spybot S&D both failed to find anything... then i ran antivir (i didnt do this until now because ive been having a problem downloading new virus definitions for quite some time now) which found 4 trojans and deleted them...
i probably shouldnt have messed around with hijackthis all by myself... plz help
