Hi RCYoung
Get HijackThis from
http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/hjt199//HijackThis.exe
and let it Scan your system and Save Log. (Save it where
you can find it again.) then send the log to:
Ron Kinner
(e-mail address removed)
He will tell you what to do next. Put Hijack in the
subject so he will know it's not spam.
Since HijackThis does not (yet) come with a install
routine, create a folder via Windows Explorer for
HijackThis, then move the file to this folder. This way
any backups created are saved in a legit folder. In too
many instances where the user runs HijackThis from a temp
folder and any backups are lost if that temp folder is
cleaned out. You should also make sure you are using the
latest version each and every time you run HijackThis, as
there are new detections added all the time.
Unzip, double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change
into a "Save Log" button.
Click: "Save Log" (generates: "hijackthis.log") HijackThis
