I wondered if someone can help me. I've been having trouble with malware that has installed on my shortcuts in the bottom right corner and keeps telling me I have an infection and need to download software at the moment it says I am infected with iworm attack, but the message changes.
When I open IE it says page cannot be found then it redirects me to updateyoursystem.com
It also delivers ads when I am surfing and has slowed down IE.
I've tried everything you recommended but nothing seems to work. It occasionally finds viruses but I can't shift the problem.
Below is my hijack this log. If you could help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Jon
