First, I appreciate this fantastic website. I have referenced it several times and found great success. This is my first post. Despite running Ad-aware constantly, having a pop-up blocker installed and Norton Antivirus active, I am constantly getting Malware. My post is three-fold.
First, I want to make sure all the "reminants" are removed (i.e. I deleted Media Gateway and see that it is still in the HijackThis log) What should I do to follow-up?
Here is a summary of what I have done for reminant review:
Media Gateway--deleted the directory manually
180searchassistant--deleted the directory manually
ProSiteFinder--deleted the directory manually
Second, I am getting media.adrevolver.com popups and Poker sites pop-ups dispite attempt to remove it with Ad-aware and Norton. I have run "Clean-up" and was unhappy that it deleted some files in my temp directory--oops... And I have run Ad-aware SE, a couple of times. Suggestions? Attached is my log...
Lastly, I would like advice on how to prevent these from slipping thru my pop-up blocker, my firewall (I think I have one) and my virus protection. Is my software not powerful enough?
I appreciate any help!
Chris
