im sorry to say but my spyware problem has returned. i had preciously posted on this forum about a problem know as atmclk.exe, fortunatly that has not managed to make a return. but recently dcomfg.exe has made its way back i even tried removing it myslef by following preivous instructions and removin line 2 from my log, but after a few restarts it manages to start itself up again. Can someone help me again pls, ive attached my hijackthis log. thnx!!
 
Go HERE and follow the instructions, even if your symptoms are not the same. dcomfg.exe is part of the Spyfalcon infection.

Post a fresh HJT log after you`ve done that.

But unfortunatly that pesky bit of spyware dcomcfg.exe still seems to be hanging around. have u any other ideas on how to remove or how it seems to keep coming back!
