HJT error, doesn't finish scanning
When I try and scan using HighJackThis, it comes up with this error:

An unexpected error has occurred at procedure: modMain_FixUNIXHostsFile()
Error #28 - Application-defined or object-defined error

Windows version: Windows NT 5.01.2600
MSIE version: 6.0.2900.2180
HijackThis version: 1.98.2

How can I fix this so I can post my log up here?

Go here and D/L and install this VB-package:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;290887
That should do it (I hope).

Double-click on that VBRun60sp6.exe to install it. You can safe it for other occasions such as a re-install or delete it.

There is a variant of the Coolwebsearch trojan spreading that closes several anti-spyware apps when you try to open them.
If this is happening to you, download PepiMK's CoolWWWSearch.SmartKiller removal tool first and run it.

After it does its job, CWShredder and HijackThis will run properly (as well Spybot S&D, Ad-aware and several anti-spyware forums).

Did you run all the other programs as described in my "Read" at the top?

do you mean those other spyware removal ones? I did run some of those, and got rid of some spyware files, but it hasn't really done too much to help... HJT was working just last week, too. I really have no idea what happened since then.

Unless you modified the OS-output from HJT in your first post, perhaps you are not running the REAL Hijackthis?
Download it from tomcoyote as mentioned in my post.
Either your system is so rotten with viruses that it is unsalvable, or something is not correct in your posting.

Here's a log that I made from about last week. I got rid of the last 3 O16 - DPF's and some other one's that were obvious like "free porn galleries" and coolwebsearch, but now when it scans, it only gets down to like R1 and stuff none of the O's show up. I guess this is all I can think of, if this helps any.

To give it to you straight: your Windows is total crap.

Unless you have no other choice, UNinstall AOL.

You have installed both McAfee and Norton. This has and will NEVER work.
To remove either is nearly impossible. It is faster to reformat and install from scratch, after you have made a backup of your personal data, of course.

If you want to try, go ahead, but you will be wasting your time!

If you insist on saving this rubbish anyway, here is what to do as well:

You need to look into this file:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\devldr32.exe
Right-click it, select properties, note the version, size and date somewhere.
Then compare with your soundblaster-CD. If the correct version and size, OK, otherwise let HJT fix it.

Uninstall anything to do with this:
C:\Program Files\Free Downloads Accelerator\fdaagent.exe
Later on you can install Stardownloader instead from www.stardownloader.com

Uninstall anything to do with this:
C:\freescan\freescan.exe

Let HJT "fix" these, as described in my big post: How to remove Begin2Search / CoolWebSearch and other Nasties.

There are plenty of threads about backup and (re-)install Windows on this forum.
Do a "search" with the necessary keywords.

Your personal data are: music, documents, emails and any other user-files.
Copy them onto a different partition or harddisk.
Then format your main-harddisk and install XP, followed by your motherboard- and other hardware-drivers, followed by XP/SP2. Then one antivirus-program (try the free AVG from www.grisoft.com). Then use IE to fully update XP.
Then install Firefox (for browsing) and Thunderbird (for email). Use these instead of IE and OE. Also install Adaware/Spybot etc. as per my big post. Run these at least once a week.
IE is ONLY to be used for Windoze-updating in future!
