Hi,
I am in need of help to get rid of this. My homepage was hijacked and no matter how I changed the registries as recommended by microsoft, I was unable to delete the culprit.
After reading through some of the threads here, these were the stuff that I had done.
1. Delete the following values - Default_Page_URL value and the Start Page value in the following registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
HKEY_ LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
HKEY_USERS\Default\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
But realise the jetsearch.org entry in the registry keys kept stuck there even though I am the administrator of my pc.
2. Performed an online virus scan using Trend MicroHouse and there was no virus detected. However, a later scan by Norton (which I bought later) showed that the pc was infected with these 2
C:\System Volume Information\_restore{987E0331-0F01-427C-A58A-7A2E4AABF84D}\RP43\A0003417.exe is infected with W95.CIH.damaged
C:\Documents and Settings\Awei\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\C9M7KX6B\002340[1].htm is infected with VBS.Bootconf
Norton managed to remove the first one but does not look like the second one got disinfected.
3. I then install Spy Bot Search & Destroy, updated it and fix all the red problems reported.
3. Still not able to fix the problem, I installed HijackThis v1.97.7 and this is the log. Hoping you can advise me on the next steps to proceed.
