Title: c:/searchpage.html wont leave me alone!!
Post by: queenb480 on January 26, 2005, 03:33:49 AM

Right as I log on to the computer itself these stupid windows keep poping up. One says main and the other says c:/searchpage.html. My mom is so pissed she's about to ban my computer use. I let a friend play around while I was in the shower and now I cant do anything! Someone please help me!

These things happen, may not be anyone's fault
Could just need to set up better protection, let's take a closer look

Can you Download Hijackthis 1.99
A small utility to help identify if any Hijackers, Malware, Spyware, etc.....Reside on your computer

Important: Create a Permanent folder for Hijackthis
Double Click "MY Computer"
Open your C: drive
Click "File" >>> "New" >>>> "Folder"
A new folder will be created, name it HJT

Now you will have C:\HJT

Download Hijackthis from CLICK HERE (http://\"https://ssl.perfora.net/tools.radiosplace.com/HijackThis.exe\") or CLICK HERE (http://\"http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe\")
Save it to that new folder

Do a SCAN and Save a Log file---Save the log----copy and paste the WHOLE contents of the log  here... Don't try and fix anything yet----It is all important
