Can someone help me delete the file "84qf6uh9" from every where in my startup
and registry. When I scan the computer for viruses with McAffee this file
comes out as a threat. I try to delete it here, to no avail. I also tried
to delete it from:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupfolder
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg
Click to expand...

but it comes back.... I need help! I think it's causing a lot of trouble in
my computer. 8-(
 
Look in;
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
but be advised that usually there is another process running that recreates
a process with a new name each time it starts up.

Yes, I have deleted the stuff there, too. However, like you say, there is
another process running that recreates a process with a new name each time it
starts up. That's what I want to find out so I can delete it.

You're on the right track. One of the spyware removal apps may help you as
well.
