Before starting, use ERUNT
to make an emergency backup of your registry into a folder of your choice, then
1. Download, update, and scan with CCleaner
to clean Temporary files, URL history, cookies, Autocomplete form history, index.dat
2. Disable System Restore
3. Perform an online scan virus
scan use more then one scanner as each may or may not detect what the other(s)
do not.
4. Download, install, update and scan with (all freeware)....
5. Download, install, update and enable all protection with SpywareBlaster
to help keep bad ActiveX from installing, and use SpywareGaurd
to provide real-time protection against spyware installation.
remove all that is found, repeat all steps 3 and 4 until cleaned. If problem(s) persist,
post back to this thread for further suggestion.
install and use Firefox to do most
general browsing as it is cleaner to use over IE. reenable
system restore after all is cleared up.
keep us posted if this works or not....just in case, donwload and install Hijackthis
and use this procedure how to properly install hjt
located here just in case we may need it later.
