Hi !

Try to use hijackthis tool in safe mode . Run the windows in safe mode and than run hijackthis tool.

You have to check the following lines in hijackthis tool:

F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,
N3 - Netscape 7: user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "about:blank"); (C:\Documents and Settings\Keni\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\zzzhmxeq.slt\prefs.js)
N3 - Netscape 7: user_pref("browser.search.defaultengine", "engine://C%3A%5CProgram%20Files%5CNetscape%5CNetscape%5Csearchplugins%5CSBWeb_01.src"); (C:\Documents and Settings\Keni\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\zzzhmxeq.slt\prefs.js)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {8B516EDF-B460-4482-84B8-2F89CAA5845D} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\fgl.dll

Your problem is here listed:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {8B516EDF-B460-4482-84B8-2F89CAA5845D} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\fgl.dll

In safe mode got o windows/system32 and locate the file fgl.dll
You have to remove it ! Mybe in time to time this dll will change name. You have to delete it ! And than run again hijack this after reboot and see if the problem is solved. Run also cwshredder. I think it will work. I had the quite same problem like you.

Good luck. I suggest also to try spybot 1.3 search & destroy.

regards
Goran

Good Luck! :)

Doesn't using Lavasoft's AdAware Professional 6.0 stop the hijacking of IE.  I just bought the full version for this purpose.  I was hijacked one time.  Changed my default IE homepage to some scumware site that came with one of those stoopid adware cookies.  I had to manually fix that and it loaded some crap into my startup meant to siphon personal data (like Data Miner, but more complex).  I did catch it quickly.  No problems since installing AdAware Pro.
