Celldorado, SWS pop ups persist after malware scans

Unread postby Kevan » April 9th, 2008, 1:49 pm

I have run numerous anti spyware/malware/trojan programs to rid my laptop of pop ups thought to be associated with Vundo. These include XoftSpySE4, Spyware Doctor, Spyware Detector, RegCure, Malwareby Anti-Malware, SUPERAnti Spyware Free Edition, Adaware, McAfee, Windows Defender, etc. The following is my Hijack This log:

I am more or less new to the whole cyber world, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I have attempted to define running programs and isolate the problem, but after displaying hidden files, I found the task to be way over my head. I further need to know how to hide these files again, as I understand it to be safer for them to remain hidden.
Thanks a million in advance for a ray of hope if nothing else.

Due to lack of response this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
