Hope someone can help with this one. Yesterday I suffered a virus attack
which has now been fixed. However now, whenever I click on any of the
program links I get a message that tells me that "Windows cannot find C:\etc
etc." If I right click on the icon and go to "Run as" the program will start
as long as I uncheck the box that says "protect my computer and data from
unauthorized program activity". Any suggestions?????
 
Hi Chris,

Download the utility CWshredder:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

Unzip - close *all* instances of IE & OE, hit the executable and
follow
the prompts.

You can also download Hijack This from here:

http://www.mjc1.com/files/merijn/hijackthis.exe

Go here:
http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/

For instructions on how to use it; you have to post the log it
produces so experts tell you what is good and what is malware


Try downloading, installing and updating the
spyware removers from the links below. Run both of them.

Spybot S&D

If these don't correct the problem, then get yourself a copy of
BHODemon, available at
http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm .

It does not need installing - simply unzip and run the EXE program. It
is easy to use. It will find the hijackware DLL files, and give you
the ability to disable them.

Hope this helps.
