Use this MS-tool to fix the Hosts-file: TOOL
Download the file to disk and then run it

then

Download RogueKiller to your desktop
 
  • Quit all running programs
  • For Vista/Seven, right click -> run as administrator, for XP simply run RogueKiller.exe
  • When prompted, type 1 and validate
  • The RKreport.txt shall be generated next to the executable.
  • If the program is blocked, do not hesitate to try several times. If it really does not work (it could happen), rename it to winlogon.exe  

Please post the contents of the RKreport.txt in your next Reply.

then

Download OTS to your Desktop and double-click on it to run it
  • Make sure you close all other programs and don't use the PC while the scan runs.
  • Select All Users
  • Under additional scans select the following

Reg - Disabled MS Config Items
Reg - Drivers32
Reg - NetSvcs
Reg - SafeBoot Minimal
Reg - Shell Spawning
Evnt - EventViewer Logs (Last 10 Errors)
File - Lop Check

  • Under the Custom Scan box paste this in

netsvcs
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
/md5start
explorer.exe
winlogon.exe
Userinit.exe
svchost.exe
/md5stop
%systemroot%\*. /mp /s
hklm\software\clients\startmenuinternet|command /rs
hklm\software\clients\startmenuinternet|command /64 /rs
CREATERESTOREPOINT

  • Now click the Run Scan button on the toolbar. Make sure not to use the PC while the program is running or it will freeze.

Don't worry Diane,
If he isn't available,there are many others on here who will pitch in and help.
As long as Zyndstoff is doing such a good job, you don't need any one else.  :)

BTW: thanks, Bob...  :)

Don't panic.

It's all easy, and you can do it. Don't worry.

When you start the OTS scan, then don't use the PC until the scan is done. Just leave him alone, scanning.

Just go step by step through the above instructions.

All the posting is done after the above instructions have been completed. Okay?  ;)

Okay, we'll do this step by step.

Easy things first.

Download the HostsXpert 3.7 - Hosts File Manager

Unzip it in any folder you like and run it.
What does it show in the right window side?

Click "Editing", "copy to clipboard" and paste in your next post.

Okay, that file is clean.

Now:

  • Select All Users
  • Under additional scans select the following

Reg - Disabled MS Config Items
Reg - Drivers32
Reg - NetSvcs
Reg - SafeBoot Minimal
Reg - Shell Spawning
Evnt - EventViewer Logs (Last 10 Errors)
File - Lop Check

  • Under the Custom Scan box paste this in

netsvcs
%SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe

/md5stop
%systemroot%\*. /mp /s
hklm\software\clients\startmenuinternet|command /rs
hklm\software\clients\startmenuinternet|command /64 /rs
CREATERESTOREPOINT


  • Now close all other programs running (including browser). You will have to log off the forum and log back in when the scan is done. Shouldn't take too long.
  • Now click the Run Scan button on the toolbar. Make sure not to use the PC while the program is running or it will freeze.
  • When the scan is complete Notepad will open with the report file loaded in it.
  • Please attach the log in your next post.
