You need to run the Shredder before considering posting a log. There are "about blank" variants of this hijacker, and the Shredder should do the trick. That is, unless it's the complex variant, in which case, none of the normal procedures will work, including HijackThis. Download the CWShredder tool on the bottom of this page: CoolWebSearch Chronicles Close all browser windows and press FIX to scan and clean. Reboot and run the Shredder again. Clear out your TIF and other temp files. Internet Options - General tab. Delete temporary internet files - choose 'delete all Offline content'. Settings - set the size of your TIF folder between 5 - 10 MB. Find - Files or folders - in the named box, type: *.tmp Select all - delete. Empty C:\Windows\temp folder and C:\temp folder, if you have one. Empty Recycle bin. Disable system restore to clear out previous restore points. Then RE-enable it, if you choose, "after" your system's cleaned up. Disabling System Restore I suggest installing SpywareBlaster to help protect your system from further problems. Check for and download updates after installing it. Enable protection for Restricted sites, as well as IE. Check for updates often: JavaCoolSoftware.com
