Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by deleting the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.
Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ folder. Put your HijackThis.exe there, and double click to run it.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked':

O4 - Startup: windows clock patch.lnk = C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\yptf$075.exe

Delete this file yptf$075.exe from your startup folder & from the desktop.
Run a search for virtualbouncer & manually delete all references to it. You may have to be in safe mode.
Upgrade IE to version 6 for better security.
Post another log from the newer version of hijackthis.
Check in add/remove programs for virtualbouncer.

i downloaded new hijackthis and also the update for Internet Explorer. After the Internet Explorer update I was unable to perform any functions on my computer...I unistalled and was finally able to get some programs working...I was able to delete the files associated w/ Vbouncer (7 of them) but now having bigtime computer problems. Won't let me start in safe mode - won't let me run Adaware or Spybot - it starts then locks up. Computer shutting down on it's own then tries to run scandisk on startup w/ surface analysis - which also gets hung up....I am at wit's end!
When I try to run scandisk after Windows has started it states there is something writing to drive C and it can't complete the scanning process.
This is my most recent hijackthis log - if anyone can help I would appreciate it!!!!
Regards,
Georgia

You have hijackthis running from a temp folder. Please do the following before we continue;
Click My Computer, then C:\
In the menu bar, File->New->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ folder. Put your HijackThis.exe there, and double click to run it.

You have a keylogger called *spybuddy* on your comp that needs to be removed.

You need an antivirus & firewall.
