Hi Frank,
I just checked the items Carol recommended here
that you allow Hijack This to fix and note that she didn't include the one I mentioned
in my last post.
So here it is again to save you looking for it
O7 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System, DisableRegedit=1
Checkmark that when you run the scan again and hopefully things will work properly
afterwards.
A cautious note about Black Ice though. It's not renowned in the firewall industry
as a good firewall and has a lot of security holes in it which lets spyware through
(as you've discovered).
You'd be much better off with Zone Alarm which is free
without tech support, but free support on their forums. Click here
You should make sure you uninstall Black Ice first though.
