Go to Control Panel (In safe mode (F8) if necessary) Internet Options Advanced options tab and check 'Unable third-party browser extensions.' The problem might be caused by an Explorer extension (malware) that loads with it and crashes. Also check this program that deals with BHO (Browser helper objects) BHODemon, available at http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm . It does not need installing - simply unzip and run the EXE program. It is easy to use. It will find the hijackware DLL files, and give you the ability to disable them. Hope this helps. |

Kim,
On Sun, 11 Apr 2004 22:06:04 -0700, Kim M. wrote: Well I think I spoke too soon about getting everything fixed. After running all the recommended software, I am unable to get onto some websites such as Google and I am unable to get into any tables on Yahoo games. Is there anyway that I can fix this? R ight after I ran adware, I did the recommended quarantine and then when I went to open the threads in this topic it would not display the text. I went back and did a recover which fixed this problem but now I have all the other files that should have been quarantined but are not any longer. Is there a way that I could tell which files should be quarantined so as not to cause this problem to re-occur? Thanks Kim M. You can download Hijack This from he http://www.mjc1.com/files/merijn/hijackthis.exe Go he http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/ For instructions on how to use it; you have to post the log it makes so experts tell you what is good and what is malware. What you will do is a scan of your system and post the results of the scan so experts can tell you which parts are malware and safe to delete. Good luck |

I finally was able to get HiJackThis to download and here is what it found. Again, thank you soooo much for all the help and I hope you will be able to make some suggestions that will fix the new problems. I am now able to get to Google but Yahoo Games s
till won't open for the tables and it won't open some websites. I had to go back and restore to yesterday just to be able to download this software but again I still have these other problems that I can't take care of yet (i.e. trojans, etc.). Thank you, Kim M. P.S. I can't tell you how grateful I am for all your help, again, THANK YOU!!
