I hope that someone can help. I have the about:blank hijacker ad ware or whatever it is. I have followed all instructions listed prior to writing this, the standard instructions as well as instructions to others with the same problem. None have worked for me. I have tried, ad-aware, hijack this, cleanup, cwshredder, spy sweeper, reglite, spybot, panda, unhack defender, trojan hunter, all according to instructions for others, and I still have this hijacker. I am running windows xp. Posted below is my latest hijack this log.
I hope that I haven't made things worse with my prior attmepts.
Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance...
