By posting just a HJT log without any supporting symptoms or explanation it is likely that your log will be passed by and you will not receive the help you're looking for.

Unfortunately our helpers are not gifted with second sight, and I believe very few have convenient access to a crystal ball, so I'm afraid you're going to have to give us a few clues as to the nature of your problems.

No need to go into minute detail, but a few words about the type of difficulties you're experiencing will narrow down what we're looking for.

If you've received any messages or error codes please include them.

This thread will now be closed.

If you still need help, please start a new thread with:-
  • A new HijackThis log.
  • An Uninstall list
  • Details of your problems.


I've also noticed that you've posted for help with 2 separate computers at the same time. If you have 2 infected computers, please deal with them one at a time, otherwise you are tying up the time of 2 separate helpers one of whom could be helping someone else.

Post the logs and details for the 1st machine and wait for a helper. Explain to your helper that you have 2 infected computers that you need help with, and he/she will help you with them one at a time.
