Try uninstalling MySide Searchbar Assistant via CP > Add/Rmv Pgms, Brianan.
Then start hijackthis, select Scan Only, place checkmarks against all the entries listed below that still exist, and then press Fix Checked.

O2 - BHO: mysidesearch search enhancer - {ae6c19eb-981d-8a4f-57fd-ef9896f5cb6b} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxzenhbjqqwnrvrar.dll

Delete this file if it still exists:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxzenhbjqqwnrvrar.dll
Say how you get on...

I completed this but was unable to delete the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\dxzenhbjqqwnrvrar.dll as it said it was full or in use by another application.

Can anyone help from here ?

Brianan, mostly I don't hop forums.. atm I am playing in the other one, but chased you over here.... you would be able to delete that file from Safe Mode, unless they were very cunning.... but in any event this is a very handy tool:
==This one is a general purpose deleter, Unlocker: http://filehippo.com/download_unlocker/
Dclick the exe to install it, unchecking the updater and assistant boxes. It runs from the rclick context menu, and that is cool.

You cannot expect pestware writers to do the best job with their uninstallers.. this file may need removing, also:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\mysidesearch_sidebar_uninstall.exe

Thanks Gerbil, This worked and your great (-: Computers running like she was new again

Oh, nice.
Cheers.
