I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me clean up my hijacked computer. Every time I open IE 6.0 a generic search page is the default homepage with the words "About:Blank" in the URL. The search button also displays a bunch of search links. I also get numerous random pop-ups letting me know that my computer has spyware installed (of course, they put it there). Anhow, I've cleared the registry of any references to the "About:Blank", but they keep coming back whenver IE is opened or closed. This is the action I have taken so far.
1) Run Norton Anti Virus with latest definitions. No viruses
2) Run SpyBot S&D, Clean
3) Run Adware 6.0 - It did fine three objects referencing coolsearch and I did delete those references. Still did not fix the problem above.
4) Ran Hijack This with the following log.
Any help would be appreciated.
