problem

[Meg]

I downloaded Hijack This and it is only in ZIP drive.  Everytime I try to open something from zip drive it won't allow me.  Is there any other versions of Hijack This that you can just download and not on zip unless anyone knows how to open something on the zip drive.  I dont even have a zip drive though.

You don't need a Zip drive Meg but instead an Unzipping utility

Don't worry about that right now
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 HERE or HERE

this version is an .exe and not zipped
Save it to that new folder

Do a SCAN----Scan will change to SAVE LOG----copy and paste the WHOLE contents of the log
here... Don't try and fix anything yet----It is all important
