Hello bluebelle,
Do you have HijackThis on the pc but you can't run it?
If not, can you download HijackThis on another pc, and transfer it using a USB on your pc? Then run it in Normal mode preferably, if not even in safe mode would do. I need to see a HijackThis log.
I post the instructions below.
----------------------------------------------
Download and Run HijackThis
Download HJTInstall.exe to your Desktop.
Don't use the Analyse This button, its findings are dangerous if misinterpreted.
Don't have Hijackthis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
Let me know.
----------------------------------------------
If still no go, try renaming HijackThis.
RENAME HIJACKTHIS
Using Windows Explore by right-clicking the Start button and left clicking Explore navigate to: C:\Program Files\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe (or where HijackThis.exe is located)
Right-click on HijackThis.exe & select Rename to scanner.exe and post back a new Hijackthis log
