I seem to have a problem similar to many others. Symptoms include -
- fake Windows Security Center screen pops up often
- red background 'trojan found' download screen pops up often
- random pop ups in taskbar warning about malware, slow PC, etc
- Diabled Task Manager
- System seems to 'refresh' every minute or so
- Ad aware, Spybot and Spyware doctor repeatedly find & clean malware, but it returns
- Symantec unable to detect any problem (after I did the SDFix as suggested in other posts)
- Browsers are often not taking me to the expected site. There are some anti-malware sites which seem to be blocked, or am unable to open pages which mention this problem
- Before running SDFix, I could not even open Notepad because of 'Data Execution Prevention'

I've already run Symantec Antivirus, Ad aware, Spybot, Spyware Doctor and SDFix and the problem is not yet fixed (maybe some small symptoms are gone after running SDFix)

I've listed below the logs for SDFix and HijackThis. Can someone help plz!!

Hi,

I apologize for the delayed response. The trojans were preventing me from downloading these files. Also, my browser was getting redirected to other sites...anyway, finally I managed to run these tools, and voila...everything seems to be running fine!

I ran MAM twice. The first time I ran it, I found and cleaned quite a few trojans. Then I ran my Symantec antivirus, Dr.Web Cureit and also Spybot. After that I ran MAM again and the problem 'seems' to be cured.

Here are the logs after the second run. Please advise if I need to do anything more. Thanks a lot!!
