Hi, dave , can I see a full HJT log including the header.
Highjackthis.exe needs a permanant folder of it's own in order to create backups
Create a folder on the desktop, right click on the desktop, select new folder,and name it HJT Now locate C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner\Desktop\HiJackThis.exe
copy and paste it into the new folder ( HJT ) you created on the desktop.
post me a new log
Thanks dan
Is this what your looking for? Your help is much appreciated.

That's what I'm after, well done. I need you to make another small alteration for me,
I believe we have some files hiding from us, we need to flush them out.

Please go to the C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Owner\Desktop\HJT\HiJackThis.exe. Right click on the HijackThis.exe file and select "Rename". Rename it removal.exe,

Then run HijackThis again and post a new log please.

Thanks dan
Ok renamed it to "removal" and this is what I got.
