Hacktool.Rootkit - it will not go away

[CooperS]

I read a couple of the postings and have downloaded Hijack This. The virus will not allow me to run this program so I went into safe mode and ran it. I have also run the Symantec fix and a couple of others but no luck. Here is the log from Hijackthis.
Please help

Hi CooperS,

1. Download ewido Security Suite and install it, and then open the program. If you initially receive a warning message saying "Database not found" when you first run the program, just click "OK" for this. Next- in the main screen, click "Update" and click "Start Update". After the update process, exit from Ewido; do not actually have it scan your system yet.

2. Open Norton Anti-Virus and use the Live Update feature to make sure you have the absolutely most current virus definition databases installed. Close the program after that.

3. Run HijackThis again and have it fix the following:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Wins Service Driver] winet.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Wins Service Driver] winet.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Wins Service Driver] winet.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\RunServices: [Wins Service Driver] winet.exe

4. Reboot into Safe Mode and:

* Run a full system scan with ewido; let it fix everything it finds.

* Run a full system scan with Norton.

* 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". Search for and delete all instances of winet.exe that you find.

* Empty your Recycle Bin.

5. Reboot normally, run a scan with HijackThis again, and post the new log. Also post the Scan Report that ewido generated.

Thank you so much for your quick response.
I had to do some of this in safe mode because the virus would not allow me to run Hijack this or Norton until I go about half way through your directions.

when I ran Hijack again, it cam up with nothing. It looks like I can actually run Norton from regular mode now. Maybe all it well?

here is the last Ewido report. It also look good.

All is well. Problem solved. 4 days and no evidence of the virus.

Thanks again for your help
