That seems ok do this.

1. Download and unzip http://skads.org/special/rkfiles.zip to a folder.

2. Boot into safemode to do this keep tapping F8 on your keyboard while your PC is starting up you will get a menu select safemode.

3. While in safemode go to the folder you unzipped rkfiles to and run rkfiles.bat. It will take a long time and it will make a log log.txt. Reboot into normal mode and post that log here in a reply.

Hmm ok lets see if anything is hiding.

1. Run all these oline virus scans and tell me what they find.

http://housecall.tre.../start_corp.asp
http://www.pandasoft...n_principal.htm
http://www3.ca.com/t...sinfo/scan.aspx

2. Boot into safemode to do this keep tapping F8 on your keyboard while your PC is starting up you will get a menu select safemode.

Open Ewido again
  • Click on scanner
  • Click on Complete System Scan and the scan will begin.
  • While the scan is in progress you will be prompted to clean files, click OK
  • When it asks if you want to clean the first file, put a check in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections" then choose clean and 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.
  • Save the report .txt file to your desktop.
Now close ewido security suite.

Reboot and Post the report Ewido made and a new Hijackthis log here in a reply.

Also question does this PC have more than one account on where other people use the PC?

The three links you gave me no longer work on my computer. Housecall and eTrust antivirus do not start [Housecall gives me an Active X error on every page, though it did not do so before], and the Panda ActiveScan page does not even load.

All three of them worked earlier today, but my computer froze up, and then they stopped working.
