Followed all the basic instructions given CleanUp4.0 / Killbox / AdAware / Spybot......

the pop up come as regular as ever --- these pop-ups are the gray & black "WARNING found 55 Critical Errors.....blah blah blah" type boxes that take up between 30 - 70% of the screen and are accompanied by a "ding!" .... doing this for a near PC-illiterate friend (so we are a step above the blind leading the blind ;p ).....we're at wits end w/ this deeply entrenched POS hack/virus or whatever it is --- please help -- thx!

Hi and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Sam and I will be helping you. :tazz:
I apologize for the delay getting to your log, the helpers here are very busy.

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.
