Hello, My name is Aaron I recently had a lapse in internet service through my provider Adelphia. This was not a problem for me, but what they do not tell you is when this happens their provided full security from Freedom also will not work. Mind you i also connect to a wireless network that was outside of my home service. I connected the net with zero anitivirus protection. Whoo Hoo. Yeah I know....if I had been aware that this was the case I would never even think of connecting, but I didnt know until it was too late. I have read through forums here DL ewido and the like to see if i could curb this problem. Once I get rid of one it seems another steps up to bat for it. I had Aurora which I tried nail fix and it may have worked since Micorsoft beta spyware does not show it anymore after a scan. I somehow have Web Nexus now. If i thought the uninstall at the bottom of their pages was Lagit Id do it, but I know this is not the case. I have Freedom Internet security. Microsoft Beta spyware. Ad-Aware....and i attempted to DL Trend Micros free trial so i can get rid of Freedom after this whole debacle and it crashed my comp. Help please. I have a year old sony Vaio Laptop. ANY help will be paramount! Thank You For Your Time. Aaron S.

Ok I went to the forum...I have been there before. I have run all of those options before as well. I restarted in safe mode by typing msconfig.exe in run....I ran in order...Ewido Scanner.....Ad-Aware....CCleaner....Microsoft Anti spyware Beta.....CWshredder....and My Freedom Anit-Virus and Anti-SPyware scanners....They all turned up clean except Freedom Spware found a Midway file or something that is says it deleted......I am still getting web-nexus pop ups even though I have my XP Sp 2 firewall set to allow none....Im sure its because it is bundled with IE or something....As I stated before I had attempted to DL the Trend Micro free trial to see if I liked it since Im getting rid of freedom and Trend crashed my comp....Well I tried to delete the Trend Files without running the uninstaller....Yes I know My mistake and now when I try it says cannot uninstall a file thats not there, but its there alright running just about the whole program....so I try to delete the file and says cant because it is write protected or running from another program...I looked at processes that I knew were Trend and stopped them, but it it has not worked. In safe boot or not......Here is my HiJackthis Log after I ran all of the previous stated programs...........Again Thank You For Your Free Time To Help Me......
