Virus / Malware HELP

Unread postby steelester » September 2nd, 2011, 2:10 am

I got a nasty little thing on my laptop. I don't know how, because I don't go to a lot of websites on it, and never anyplace questionable.

I have been working on the problem for the last week and a half. Done several different virus/malware scans.

It's running better but it has still got something on there. Google searches will be hijacked to ad sites, and AVG no longer opens at startup and when I open AVG it says that the Database can't ve verified, even though I updated and ran it yesterday.

Here is the Hijack This log:

In your previous topic that was just closed, you stated that this machine is a laptop you use at work. Therefore, that topic was closed with the following explanation:

May I draw your attention to THIS topic, which you should have read before posting for help.

The section Posting for help for business machines explains why we do not offer help for such computers.

This topic is now closed

As stated, this site does not work on computers that are used in a business environment. Please do not start additional topics for this computer.
