Here is the text file output from Hijackthis. My web browser is being redirected to bogus sites and my resources have dwindled to nothing...help. Have tried several spyware programs but non are working.
Have virus checked the PC and it is clean. Just this damn malware.

Thx.

Chryssi2001,
Thanks for the response. I have since my last post, fixed the problem. Here's how:
The PC was infected with safenavweb. The ONLY malware program that worked on it (and cleaned a bunch of other stuff off too) was MalewareByte's AntiMalware. The program is free and works great.

Thx,

Hello nmcadams,

Thanks for letting me know. :)
Yes indeed MalewareByte's AntiMalware is a very good scanner.

I will close this topic since everything is fixed. :)
