    OS: Vista Home Premium

    Problem: None that I know of.

    More 411: Followed sticky preliminary removal instructions.

    Didnt work: AVG Antispyware, combofix.exe, Look2Me-Destroyer

    Everything came back clean nothing found on my system but i do not understand HJT logs. So there probably problems that i don't know of.


    Thank you

    I find the following entries a little fishy. Do you know what they are Howard?

    O13 - Gopher Prefix:
    O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{BC1206EB-AE85-4833-901F-16AFF14E1757}: NameServer = 66.75.164.90,66.75.164.89
    O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{FF1DAC66-051C-4416-B731-D639D6385BB1}: NameServer = 66.75.164.90,66.75.164.89

    From what I know, O17 entries are lop.com domain hijackers, not safe to have if the ips contained in them are not the user's own ISP domain.

    O13 entries are IE DefaultPrefix hijacks. Several sites I checked with recommended fixing O13 entries always.

    frosty_65: In that case, your HJT log is clean.

    momok: 017 entries are usually safe except when they are part of a hijacker.(see the other thread you replied to.)

    Not all 013 entries are nasty and in frosty_65`s case the 013 entry is perfectly legit and is part of Windows Vista.

    If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.
