Yes it does appear on the top. I must admit I did not think of that so I did another full search of your logs in case I had missed something :-*

Having said that, your logs now appear clear - how is your computer running now ?

my computer seems OK now… I still have problems sometimes to access all products related to google (gmail, news, etc), but it might come from my provider, as it had happened before and came back “alone”… (Is there any virus doing that by the way?).

I asked to all my running messenger contacts to see if they received again the message and they say now… But the ones infected are getting mad trying to take it out… (they have other antivirus…).

I spent my whole Sunday on my computer… Happily it was a rainy day!

Thanks a lot, it is nice to know my computer clean anyway.

Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean :thumbsup:

You may delete all the programmes I had you download

Now to get you off to a good start we will re-set your restore points so that all the bad stuff is gone for good. Then if you need to restore at some stage you will be clean. There are several ways to reset your your restore point but this is my method:

  1. Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > System Restore.
  2. On the dialogue box that appears select Create a Restore Point
  3. Click NEXT
  4. Enter a name e.g. Clean
  5. Click CREATE

You now have a clean restore point, to get rid of the bad ones:

  1. Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > System tools > Disk Cleanup.
  2. In the Drop down box that appears select your main drive e.g. C
  3. Click OK
  4. The System will do some calculation and the display a dialogue box with TABS
  5. Select the More Options Tab.
  6. At the bottom will be a system restore box with a CLEANUP button click this
  7. Accept the Warning and select OK again, the program will close and you are done

Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free program:
[*]SpywareBlaster to help prevent spyware from installing in the first place.
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

To keep your operating system up to date visit
[*]Microsoft Windows Update

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klien: So how did I get infected in the first place?

Keep safe :wave:

i have antivirus and firewall… and windows updated. At least, i think so…

I did what you said, cleaning, and restore points, etc.

About spywareblaster, if I understood well, I should update it every week, or use the autoupdate, but for that feature, I should pay the licence, right?

No need to pay for the licence, a manual update monthly should suffice
