The virus alerts are persistant, usually to the point where I cannot click the ok button as the alert just pops back up.
MS Antispyware is always popping up issues about changes to IE Explorer settings.
I've been fighting this for two days now. I've already gone through these steps:
adaware se scan-several CoolWWWSearch files removed
spybot S&D-at least one more CoolWWWSearchfile removed plus some others
CWShredder-nothing found/removed
Ewido SS-deleted several trojan horse issues
TDS-3-Nothing found
I also ran Hijack This and cleaned up some things that i've seen on other threads to be removed. Below is my Hijack This log and I'll reply with my scan report as requested in your instructions.
Pretty much the only other symptoms I've had are search engine hijacks or popup ads for anti-spyware programs and a few unwanted links in my favorites menu.
The hijack this log is from a fresh restart, so it should be clean of any excess issues. BTW: all steps were done in safe mode with system restore turned off.
