[guestolo]

That's okay, I'll try and do this another way

Download and UNZIP to your desktop Export.zip
So you now have Export.bat on your desktop
[attachment=257:attachment]

Double click on Export.bat
A text file will be placed on your desktop called Export.txt
Open Export.txt and copy and paste the contents back here

Did Ad-Aware find any Critical objects?
Just wondering

[joy]

Ad-Aware didn't find any critical object...I decided to delete  twaa.dll from my logfile Hijack, as you see from my latest logfile and everything is working now!

This is what you asked me to post :

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers\Offline Files]
@="{750fdf0e-2a26-11d1-a3ea-080036587f03}"

Ok?

THANKS A LOT!!!

[guestolo]

That looks fine

You can go back and hide hidden files and folders

You should set up protection against future attacks

SpywareBlaster 3.4 by JavaCool
*Will block bad ActiveX Controls
*Block Malevolent cookies in Internet Explorer and Firefox
*Restrict actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer
After installation, Check for updates and then click the "Enable all protection"

IE-Spyad---IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
Here is a tutorial and download link
TUTORIAL==Link to Tutorial
Download link

With both, Check for updates every couple of weeks
Keep the link to IE-Spyad bookmarked so you can check for updates
SpywareBlaster, after every update just simply click the "enable all protection"

You should consider updating to Windows Service pack 2
to help keep your system secure
and then stay up to date on all Latest Critical(High priority) updates afterwards
