Hello.. I caught the Spysheriff bug too. Judging from my research I am under the impression that I am to post my info from hijackthis below so I have. Does anyone have any idea which part of my logfile should be deleted to fix my computer?

Much Thanks to anyone who may know..

You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.

• Click on Start

The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
After the updates are installed, exit Ewido

Reboot into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode, then hit enter.

While the scan is in progress you will be prompted to clean the first infected file it finds. Choose "clean", then put a check next to "Perform action on all infections" in the left corner of the box so you don't have to sit and watch Ewido the whole time. Click OK.

Once the scan has completed, there will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named Save report

• Click Save report

Reboot into normal mode.

Double-click smitfraud.reg on your desktop. When asked if you want to merge with the registry click YES. After the merged successfully prompt, please reboot your computer.

You should be able to change your desktop back to normal now.
