hello and thank you before we even begin. my girlfriend is as computer illiterate as i am, but i can follow directions better. we heard about your site through a friend.
i have done the adware removal and the ewido removal as suggested, updated, rebooted and ran a hijack this log.
the computer has ran a little faster since then, but not much.

Hi and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Sam and I will be helping you.

Before we can get started on fixing your problem you must change the location of Hijackthis. It should not run directly from your desktop or a temp directory. Please create a directory on your c: drive called c:\hijackthis and download and unzip hijackthis into that directory. Run the program from that directory from now on. It is essential that you follow these steps or certain important features of the program will not function correctly.

Once you have Hijackthis running from a permanent folder, please reboot and post a new hijackthis log.
