Hi,
I have that bloody Blank Trusted start Page. I feel a bit stupid about not starting a new thread but tagging on last nite. :o I followed Crunchies detailed and greatly appreciated instructions and here is my HijackThis log.

Hi,
I have that bloody Blank Trusted start Page.

These are the bad processes:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\csrs.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\bling.exe
C:\index.exe

You are going to have to stop these processes before going further, because they deliberately interfere with the tools neded to deal with them. For example, Task Manager and Regedit are probably disabled while they run.

Fortunately, there are alternative tools available, including CodeStuff Starter and PrcView. Either of them should work; Starter has a "nicer" interface.

Once those processes are stopped, get rid of the following (use HijackThis to check these off and "fix checked"):

Once fixed, use the Windows Find function to track down the files and remove them. The IgfxTray utility can be replaced by the better MultiRes.

Thanks guys..
I got rid of the problem.. :D

hey guys...my name is rafael and i have the same problem this guy had...

i dont know exactly where to start, i tried what this guy did, but as i looked for the processes that are supposed to be "stopped" i couldnt find them and i also wouldnt know what it would mean to "stop" them...

i'm sorry if i seem clueless, but uhm, i kinda just found this page by searchin for information on the "trusted start page", i figured if you guys helped this guy out, maybe you could help me out?

do you mind? where should i start?

Hi Romanflux...the first thing you should do is start your own thread and post a hijackthis log there. By tagging on to someone else's thread, it causes confusion and your problem may not get the attention it deserves. You might also consider running Adaware and Spybot scans and letting them fix what they find. Reboot and scan with Hijackthis (version 1.98.2), being sure all other browser windows are closed when you do so. Then post your log in your own thread. :)
