Thanks again for this tip. I was already running ad-aware but changed the settings as you suggested and scanned again. Came out clean.

Download the latest version of Ad-Aware at ADAWARE


Setup Ad-Aware !
After installing AAW, and before running the program, update reference files by using the bottom right button in the program, labeled "Check for Updates."

Launch the program, and click on the Gear at the top of the start screen.

Click the "Scanning" button.
Under Drives & Folders, select "Scan within Archives".
Click "Click here to select Drives + folders" and select your installed hard drives.

Under Memory & Registry, select all options.
Click the "Advanced" button.
Under "Log-file detail", select all options.
Click the "Tweaks" button.

Under "Scanning Engine", select the following:
"Include additional Ad-aware settings in logfile" and
"Unload recognized processes during scanning."
Under "Cleaning Engine", select the following:
"Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."
Click on 'Proceed' to save these Preferences.

Your log look ok now!
are you still having problems with IE
also the hijackthis.exe ,create a new folder on the c:\ call it c:\ HJK ,and put the hijackthis .EXE in there ,for backup purposes .

Thanks. I am still having problems with IE, cannot get to that website www.blackplanet.com - I see it listed under my trusted sites at the end of the hijack log - not sure what that means but I cannot get it to come up. I wish I would have written down the other sites I couldn't access. Any other suggestions?

you could run hijack and check off and fix the 015 and see what happens .
Also try going to tool in IE ,go to internet options /security and click on default levels .

Still no luck. If you think of anything else let me know.
