Hi
First off thanks for any help.
IE is just continually opening up, taking me to advertising sites, the only time I can stop it is when I press ctrl + alt + del and stop IE.
The sites change all the time, so it does not send me to the same one every time, or maybe it does and that one redirects me (I'm not really sure, what's going on)
I've run AVG Anti-Spyware and here is the log.
Thanks you very much
Llewellyn
Log looks clean, Llewellyn. :D
Post that AVG log, and also do this next:
===hijackthis: http://216.180.233.162/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe
-install it to a new folder alongside your program files and then rename the Hijackthis.exe to imabunny.exe.
-in that folder start HijackThis by dclicking the .exe; now close ALL other applications and any open windows including the explorer window containing HijackThis.
-Click the Scan and Save a Logfile button. Post the log here. Actually...
ie keeps trying to go to the website http://www.gozobil.lx.ro
Thanks for you help

..almost too many .exe 's in that new hijackthis filename, Llew... of course it still works, but please delete one of the .exe extensions anyway.
Okay. I am surprised that Norton did not detect winlogin.exe.... I am not sure which worm version this one is, so to play safe we shall try to remove it in safe mode so that it cannot be regenerated as we do it. Just for fun, would you first go, in an explorer window, tools tab > folder options > view, and press Show hidden files and folders, apply and ok. Please then do a search in Local disc C:\ for:-
yuetyutr.dll and win32sockdrv.dll - these two are bad, but you may not have them.
===Please download killbox from here:- http://www.downloads.subratam.org/KillBox.zip -unzip it onto your desktop, and leave it for the moment.
===Restart your computer in Safe Mode:- press F8 several times while POST is running and before IDE detection completes.
- On the Windows Advanced Options Menu, select Safe Mode and press Enter.
- When the Boot Menu appears again, select Microsoft Windows XP and press Enter.
- Log in by using the Administrator account and password. NOTE: The password is blank by default unless you set a password.
===Start hijackthis [imabunny.exe], and select Scan only. Place checks against the following entries, and then press Fix checked:-
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://www.gozobil.lx.ro
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.gozobil.lx.ro

F3 - REG:win.ini: run=C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogin.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Advanced Tools Check] C:\PROGRA~1\NORTON~1\AdvTools\ADVCHK.EXE
===Dclick killbox to start it.
Select "Delete on reboot", click the "all files" button.
>Highlight the pathnames in the following lines as one block and copy them into clipboard [press Ctrl+C] [ or rclick, copy...]:-
C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogin.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\yuetyutr.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\win32sockdrv.dll
In killbox, go File menu, choose Paste from clipboard. Click the red and white X button, click Yes on the reboot prompt, click OK if a pendingfilerenameoperation box opens. [do not be concerned if it says it cannot find a file...]
When your system restarts [in normal mode] please run hijackthis again and post a new log with your comments on performance.
Thanks, have to go away for weekend, but will try on Monday and let you know, thank you very much for your help and time
Llewellyn
When my computer starts it says: windos can not find C:\windows\system32\winlogin.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To serch for a file , click start button and then click search.
You click OK
And then it says
Could not load or run C:\windows\system 32\winlogin.exe specified in the registry.
Then you click OK and IE does not open up on itself.
Do you know how I can solve the winlog.exe problem
Thanks for you help so far, here is the log from hijackthis:

Did you try to get Hijackthis to fix this entry?
F3 - REG:win.ini: run=C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogin.exe
-this is the registry entry trying to start winlogin.exe, but that process has already been deleted/removed.
[Please note that winlogon.exe is a VALID and necessary process!!]
Please, what exactly do you mean by "and IE does not open up on itself" after you click OK.?
If you did already try to clear that F3 entry, then get CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ - and put it in a new folder. You should aim to keep this one for general use. I set it from the install checkboxes to only open from the recycle bin. It's neater that way.
Now run Ccleaner from the recycle bin rclick menu using its default settings [if you set up CCleaner as i suggested, rclicking the bin icon should give you the Open CCleaner option...]. Select the Cleaner icon and the Windows tab; press Run Cleaner.
===Next try an online scan at panda:- http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/activescan?
-the link to the scan is just above the padlock pic .... free online virus scan.. [and is also the more obvious blue link], enter a valid? email and follow through, choosing My Computer for a full system scan.
Post the log it produces here.
Thanks for your help.
Problem solved.
Glad it worked for you. Cheers.
