I received this specialgoods trojan like many others, and thanks to the people at this forum, I was able to successfully stop the ads and windows randomly popping up. However, my homepage is still a specialgoods website, and I have been unsuccessful in changing it.

Here is my hijackthis log:

Please, can anyone help me find out how to get my homepage back?

1. Although the suggestions in the link below relate to the "HotOffers" infection, I believe they apply to SpecialGoods as well. Try them and let us know the results:

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/post114046-41.html


2. Once you do the above, run HijackThis again, put a check mark to the left of the following entries, and then click "Fix Checked":

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.specialgoods.info/ad/ad0456/
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [cAg0u] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\D255CA40.hta


3. 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" and "Hide extentions for known file types".

Locate and delete the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\D255CA40.hta file.


4. Empty your Recycle Bin and reboot.


5. Run HijackThis again and post a new log.

I tried what you had said, and there is one problem, I am not able to locate the file: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\D255CA40.hta in my computer.

So what should I do?

Here is what my HijackThis log looks like now:
