Hi
I think my IE Browser has been hijacked but I can’t find anything. I am running XP pro with all updates installed. I run zonealarm,Avast,NAV,spybot w/spywareblaster,adaware and nothing comes up.I also ran online RAV and TRend micro virus checks. I have included my log file. I got this about the time I updated to the new warez file sharing stuff.Any help would be apperciated
Thanks
There is no log or attachement…
got this about the time I updated to the new warez file sharingDelete it and see if the problem is solved.
And what makes you think IE is hacked?
I deleted warez and still getting popups .I keep getting one that says Casale Media.Hopefully the hijack log will be on attachment this time !
hi bob and welcome
thats a big log and you have lots of stuff there to remove/fix
if you would like to manage it yourself go here http://hijackthis.de/index.php?langselect=english
otherwise check back later or hang around for 10 min and someone will list all the crud
Copy and paste your Hijackthis log file here: http://hijackthis.de/index.php
EDIT: oh you bet me to it

Your log looks to be loaded with Malware, are you sure Spybot and Ad-Aware were fully updated when you scanned your system with them?
If so could you try Spy sweeper aswell, its only a 30 day trial but it finds alot of malware: http://www.webroot.com/shoppingcart/tryme.php?bjpc=64000&vcode=DT02
Also when you say u deleted warez did you do it though ‘add or remove programs’?
BTW, the ‘crud’ is below:

First thing that pops out is that you are running Norton alongside Avast! . This is one of those instances where more is not better as these two programs will conflict . you must make a decision which is gonna stay and dump the other.
If you want a backup scanner maybe the bit-defender free one as it has no constant monitor.
You guys really helped me out ! I did everything and it helped but i still had some thing popping up. I downloaded the microsoft beta spyware program and it found 53 Items ! Now everything is working just fine. Thanks again for your help !
AVAST ROCKS !!!
