it is collected.5.l

I was told by a reliable friend to use hijak this to isolate the process, track it down in the sys32 folder rename and delete along with the startup entries all while in Safe Mode. I have not been able to figure out what is the culprit though. I found one but that didnt help.

ETA I thought I had it but now I cant get the recycle bin to empty it is locking up the system just by right clicking on the Recycle bin.

I hate to do this to you but I need you to get me another log I need to identify a few things that aren't showing in the HJT log,

Please click this link to download Silent Runners.
* Save it to the desktop.
* Run Silent Runner's by doubleclicking the "Silent Runners" icon on your desktop.
* You will see a text file appear on the desktop - it's not done yet, just let it run (it won't appear to be doing anything!)
* Once you receive the prompt "All Done!", double-click on the new text file on the desktop and copy that entire log and paste it here.

*NOTE* If you receive any warning message about scripts, please choose to allow the script to run.

no problem I really appreciate the help. This is what I do all day, I wouldnt ask if I too was stumped.

Now for a lame I am embarrased I dont know question. I need to empty the Recycle Bin first so I went into Safe Mode, it isnt in the start menu and it isnt on the desktop where the heck is it. As soon as I do that I will hook back up to the internet and checkout that log.

[lil_lost]

nevermind found it

[don77]

Found what ?

[lil_lost]

the recycle bin that was hiding in safe mode. I am getting the log now.

[lil_lost]

how long should it take? It has been over 5 minutes. Does it take that long to run a script?

[lil_lost]

according to the box when I hover over the title it was last edited 20 minutes ago. Is it safe to try and open it or keep letting it go? Every script I have ever run was pretty fast but I dont want to be incorrect

[don77]

Open up the folder and see if its sitting inside it

Good News: While I waited I ran AVG again and the Trojan is gone
Bad News: When I run services.msc I get an error

Your Current security Settings prohibit running activeX controls on this page.  As a result the page may not display correctly

I see that twice and then cannot navigate Services

ETA is it possible to do these changes in safe mode? The error does not seem to happen there

I also cannot download Killbox by Option^Explicit. It says I do not have the rights

[don77]

Give them a run in safe mode then,
Collected is gone ?
I m heading off shortly, Need to go stare at the inside of my eyelids

[don77]

also cannot download Killbox by Option^Explicit. It says I do not have the rights

But you could download HJT ?
