Hi

I have run an activescan on my computer and it has identified spyware in my registry. Can anyone help me to remove it as I am worried that messing around in the registry as a novice might do more harm than good.The active scan report is below.

Thanks in advance

Jan

Hi Jan :wave:

I'll help you, but as an undergraduate my posts must be checked by experts first.

Don't fix anything by yourself!
Don't create another topic!


I'll help you ASAP :)

Use this link to get HijackThis.
Save it to your desktop and then double-click to run it.
It will install the program in c:\program files\HijackThis.
Browse to that location with windows explorer, and double click on the HijackThis.exe program to run. Choose the 'Do a system scan and save a logfile'
That will allow you to save the log to the desktop (or some other place) and leave open a notepad file with the HijackThis log in it.

Now post your HijackThis log into this topic.
