Hi, All
I rarely use IE and in P2P softwares I use edonley2000. But somehow I got prosearching.com. It has caused me loads of trouble. It is deleting my email accounts from Mozilla mail. Constantly adding Casino and what not on my desktop. It is just causing havoc. I am using adaware and spybot but no use.
Please help me getting rid of this nasty thing. Here is my HijackThis log.

Thanks a bunch.

i do not like that prosearching either! i right clicked it and got rid of it like that, then i went to my start, control panel and deleted from my add/delete programs. i hate them!

Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by opening the program, going to config\misc tools, then uninstall & exit. You then have to delete the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.

Close all (browser) windows & rescan with hijackthis. When the scan is finished place a check in the box to the left of the following entries & click 'fix checked':

Reboot into safe mode following the instructions here & navigate to & delete the following if found:

C:\PROGRA~1\HTMMPE~1-folder
C:\PROGRA~1\PROGRA~1-folder (Note that I cannot see the full name of this folder)
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users.WINDOWS\Application Data\wait idol two intra-folder

In order to view these files you may have to select 'show hidden files/folders.' Instructions on how to here.

Reboot normally after doing the above then post a fresh log please.

Thanks a bunch Crunchie,
As adviced I updated mu HJT. Fixed problems. Started in Safemode and Deleted files. Browser is now clean. Here is a new HJT log.

THanks once again

You may have to fix this one in safe mode with hijackthis;

Any reason why Task Manager has a shortcut in the startup folder?

Thanks, once again Crunchie,

I will fix it and report again.
I like to run task manager just to make myself aware of the processing power I am using. Is there anything bad in starting task manager from startup folder?
Does it cause any trouble?

Thanks

Shpusalk :cool: :D

Hi,
As suggested I started in safe mode and deleted the the entry. Now IE is free of all sorts of hijacks and Mozilla is running smooth. Thanks a bunch for the help :cheesy:
Here is the newest log file.

Thanks, once again Crunchie,

I will fix it and report again.
I like to run task manager just to make myself aware of the processing power I am using. Is there anything bad in starting task manager from startup folder?
Does it cause any trouble?

Thanks

Shpusalk :cool: :D

No trouble that I know of, just wondering why it was in there :).

Log looks good.

crunchie i saw how you worked a miracle for shpusalk and was wondering if you could help me get rid of bestsearch, here is my log

Dannyboi5704...you need to start your own thread with a descriptive title saying what you're having problems with, so that one of the experts that is familiar with your problem can get to you that much sooner. By tagging on to another member's post, it may delay them getting to you, and it gets confusing to focus on two problems in one thread. So start your own with your hijackthis log, and I'm sure Crunchie or one of the others will be with you soon!

ok thanks ill do that
im new at this

thanks again!

No problem....wish I knew more to take a look at your log, but I don't trust myself enough to help anyone else just yet. :) Good luck at getting it all worked out. :)
