You can run HT and post the log it creates. That usually takes care of leftovers,
unless it's one of those newer complex hijackers. I'll check it out and get back

After the scan is finished, the Scan button will turn into Save Log. Press that and
copy/paste the contents in a post. Before posting your message, choose this Option:
