eveytime i visit a website key words are highlited as a link. for example, words like "guitars" or "toys" are highlighted and have a link. i dont think it affects my computer too much (although it may slow it down) but i cant seem to get rid of it. i run AVG, Adaware and Spybot but it never fixes it. also whenever i visit a search engine as google or ask.com, another window opens with a list of search results that are not from thoes search engines. (im thinking its something from SEEKSEEK, again, something i can not get rid of.) any help would be greatly appriciated. thanks

More and more websites are starting to use that advertising technique; there's a good chance that at least some of that behaviour you're seeing is designed into the web pages you're viewing.

However, please do the following:

Download HijackThis:

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html

Once downloaded, follow these instructions to install and run the program:

1. Create a new separate folder on your drive for HijackThis, move the program into thids folder, and run it from there. (Don't run HJT from within any Temp or Temporary Internet folder, and don't run it directly from your desktop.)

2. Before fixing problems with HijackThis, you must make sure to close/quit ALL instances of your web browser(s)! HijackThis cannot fully perform its fixes while browsers are running.

3. Run HijackThis, but do not have HJT fix anything yet; only have it scan your system! Once the scan is complete, the "Scan" button will turn into an option to "Save log...". Save the log in the folder you created for HiajckThis, open the log in Windows Notepad, and cut-n-paste the entire contents of the log here. The log contents will tell us a lot about what "nasties" have crept into your system, and once we analyse the log we can tell you what to do from there.

1. Have HijackThis fix the following entries:

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =

O18 - Filter: text/html - {DFAA31C8-A356-4313-9D95-5EDAB46C5070} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\lmf32v.dll

2. If the IP addresses in the following entries are not the DNS server IP addresses that your ISP assigned to you, have HJT fix them as well (if your ISP does not automatically assign DNS IPs to you, you will have to manually re-enter the correct IPs in your network card's Properties):

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{7A05DA13-EDCF-4BE7-9BE4-9348165335E8}: NameServer = 160.10.4.9,160.10.2.5
O17 - HKLM\System\CS1\Services\Tcpip\..\{7A05DA13-EDCF-4BE7-9BE4-9348165335E8}: NameServer = 160.10.4.9,160.10.2.5
O17 - HKLM\System\CS2\Services\Tcpip\..\{7A05DA13-EDCF-4BE7-9BE4-9348165335E8}: NameServer = 160.10.4.9,160.10.2.5

2. Reboot into safe mode (you get to the safe mode boot option by hitting the F8 key as your computer is starting up)

- Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

- Find any delete the following files:
C:\WINDOWS\mscore.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\lmf32v.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\mcc.exe
C:\WINDOWS\wovax.exe
C:\WINDOWS\aqadcup.exe
C:\WINDOWS\jawa32.exe
dsufctrs.exe

- Find any delete the following folders entirely:
C:\Program Files\CxtPls
c:\installer
C:\Program Files\Viewpoint

- For every user account listed under C:\Documents and Settings, delete the entire contents of these folders:

1. Local Settings\Temp
2. Cookies
3. History
4. Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

- Delete the entire content of your C:\Windows\Temp folder.

Note- If you get any messages concerning the deletion of system files such as desktop.ini or index.dat, just choose to delete those files; they'll be automatically regenerated by Windows if needed. Windows will allow you to delete the versions of those files which exist in sub-folders within the main Temp/Temorary folders, but might not let you delete the versions of those files that exist in the main Temp folders themselves; this is normal and OK.

- Empty your Recycle Bin.

- Reboot normally.

3. The following entry indicates that your networking software chain has been damaged:

O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'xfire_lsp.dll' missing

HijackThis cannot fix this; please download the LSPFix.exe utility from: http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm.

Run the program, and if "xfire_lsp.dll" is not listed under the "Keep" list, simply click "Finish" and close the program once it completes its fixes.

If "xfire_lsp.dll" is listed in the Keep list, put a check in the "I know what I'm doing" box, hilight xfire_lsp.dll, and then click the ">>" button to move xfire_lsp.dll to the Remove list (make sure xfire_lsp.dll is the only file moved to the Remove list!). Click Finish, and then close the program.

4. Run HJT again and post a new log.

Good- your log looks much cleaner now. :)

A couple of things, though:

A) I assume that the IP addresses listed in the "017" log entries (160.10.4.9 and 160.10.2.5) are correct, yes? (They report as being registered to West Georgia University).

B) Did you run the LSPFix utility before posting yor latest log? If so (and if LSPFix did its job correctly), the " O10 - Broken Internet access because of LSP provider 'xfire_lsp.dll' missing" entry shouldn't still be appearing. Please give us more info on that.

C) What exact problems are you still experiencing? HijackThis is a great tool, but it can't identify and fix everything; if you're still having problems, we might have to do a few more things to get you totally cleaned up.

some of my games are running slow, but ill just defrag over the weekend. (and yes my IP is regestered to West GA.) popups usually stop my computer, but after doing the above things......it helped dramatically. so all i really have left to do is run AVG, Spybot and Adaware......and things should be good. and i havent run LSPFix utility yet....thanks for reminding me....haha

OK- do those things (especially the run of LSPFix) when you get a chance and get back to us with the results. :)
