when i start my Pc at the end just before it's finished i get popup's with the text "Search Results for Poker Online"

after i clicked them all away, it seems that my PC is ok, but it's noticeble a bit slower.

i have already used hijackthis, ad-aware, spybot. all in safe mode & normal mode.

here's my hijack file, i can't see what is wrong, nut maybe does !!

hope so, this is very very irritating

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WINPDN32.EXE.............delete thid file


to delete the above files and folder you will need to do the following
go to
Show hidden files & folders

"Fix Checked"...Reboot to SAFE mode to delete files
How to start computer in safe mode

reboot computer and post a new log

You also 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 opening the program, going to config\misc tools, then uninstall & exit. You then have to delete the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.

downloaded Hijack 1.98.2 and did all the things caperjack said.

after all this i restart my PC and.... nothing showed up (that means NO popup for poker) all seems to work as well as it did before the problem.

Just to be sure here's a new hijacklog.
