daosearch hijacked my home page

[feetarup]

Need help with Daosearch. It has taken over my homepage on my sbcyahoo browser, which I wasn't using until I was forced to because on my Mozilla firefox browser, strange links to Daosearch were appearing all over including my own website. I am in need of some serious help.

How do I show you what is in
C:WINDOWS\system32\Services

[guestolo]

I haven't had this hard a time removing those file before
You must follow these instructions exactly

Try this again
Save these instructions too a Notepad file and then disconnect completely from the Internet>>>CLOSE This window and all others you don't need open

Open up the notepad file only

Then
Do another scan with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Disk Keeper] C:\DOCUME~1\Feet\LOCALS~1\Temp\keep.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Service Host] C:\WINDOWS\system32\Services\{354BA582-301C-4766-B48A-753176DC65C0}\SVCHOST.EXE

After you have ticked the above entries, close All other open windows, including this one
Leave Hijackthis open and click FIX CHECKED
OK the prompt and exit Hijackthis

Open Windows CleanUp! and click the CleanUp button
Let it finish cleaning
Don't log off or restart the computer

Instead
Run Pocket KillBox>>Now killbox and this notepad file is open
In the Full Path of File to Delete box, copy and paste the entire line directly below in bold, do not type this in

C:\DOCUME~1\Feet\LOCALS~1\Temp\keep.exe

Select the radio button to
Replace on Reboot
Also check the "Use Dummy"
Click The Red circle and a white X
When prompted to Replace on Reboot, click YES
If prompted to Reboot Now, Click NO

Do the same for this file name

C:\WINDOWS\system32\Services\{354BA582-301C-4766-B48A-753176DC65C0}\SVCHOST.EXE

But this time allow the computer to Reboot
or Restart anyways

Back in Windows

Find and delete this folder
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Services\{354BA582-301C-4766-B48A-753176DC65C0}  <-folder

Post back a fresh Hijackthis log afterwards

I don't understand the question
How do I show you what is in
C:WINDOWS\system32\Services

Navigate to the Services folder, double click to open it and tell me what you find in it!
