I have recently had problems with yoursearcher.com setting itself as our homepage. I have been reading around and it seems to be a big problem. Up to this point I have run Ad-ware (I use it regularly, great program), I have all critical updates for Win2000, I used Norton AV, and I have tried running Hijackthis and delelted some of the yoursearcher junk but I am missing something. I tried running the registry scan that what posted on this site and nothing is working. I have followed your recommended steps but I believe I still am missing something to get this annoying thing to go away.

Please let me know what I can do thanks!

Here's the Hijackthis log:

Hi devonsmith. Welcome to GTG. Sorry you got overlooked. Are you still having problems?

reboot into safe mode and make sure all files are showing.

C:\winnt\jnupirt.exe
C\WINNT\system32\?hkdsk.exe
c:\winnt\ufhbdpo.exe

C:\Program Files\VVSN\VVSN.exe


Run Hijack This making sure you're not connected to the internet. Put a check mark in these entries. After you're done, run adaware and clean out your temp. files ....reboot and post a new log.

It appears that it didn't work. I went through step by step but this nasty little creature does not want to go away. Please let me know what the next step is.

Thanks!

Here is the new log.
