I don't see anything about it finding the C:\Program Files\Acoemule folder. I'm still concerned about that.

That folder showed in the Rootkit Revealer log you sent me. It showed as being hidden from Windows API so I didn't really expect you to be able to see it anyway.

Please run Rootkit Revealer and send me another log from it to the same email address.

Do you have your XP installtion disk so we can try booting to the recovery console and see if we can see that folder there?

If that's it, then yes, I have it.

I don't know what happened, but my taskbar keeps freezing. I've run anti-spyware programs and none have found anything. It's even frozen right now, I don't know what to do.
