I have a PC on a LAN which has become infected with the Hotoffer.info trojan as well as the "Your Windows is corrupted with spyware virus" Popup. I have read through the info on your site for thread 16204 and gather this is not uncommon - but that you recommend starting your own thread - so hence this post. A temporary proxy override has been set up on the PC to prevent the awful pornographic popups!
I have run HijackThis and got the following log file was saved:

C:\WINDOWS\HOSTS
maps: 3 domain names to IP addresses,
2 of the IP addresses are *not* localhost!

This report excludes default entries except where indicated.
To see *everywhere* the script checks and *everything* it finds,
launch it from a command prompt or a shortcut with the -all parameter.

Can you help me rid this PC of the trojan?
Thanks in anticipation!
