Spyaxe yet again

I suggest you do this:

Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

O2 - BHO: HomepageBHO - {724510c3-f3c8-4fb7-879a-d99f29008a2f} - C:\WINNT\system32\hpD263.tmp


Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"


Open C:\WINNT\system32\nvctrl.exe <--Delete File
Open C:\WINNT\system32\hpD263.tmp <--Delete File



1. Open My Computer
2. Right click on your hard drive that you wish to clean (C drive, for example)
3. In the context menu that opens, select properties
4. Under the general tab you should select Disk Cleanup
5. Windows will scan your drive which will take a few seconds/minutes
6. A box will display the various files you can remove.
Check all boxes except compress old files (If listed)
7. Click OK and windows will comply.

Restart your computer.

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

All appears well

Many many thanks indeed for all of your continued efforts.
