"Antivir64"
Hi :
Your Parent's Hijackthis Log shows the "Presence" of the "Antivir64" "Rogue"
program and the FREE "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" is designed to remove it &
Other "Rogue" Programs; it is available at
www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php ;
after Installation & "Updating", run its "Full Scan" .
The Log also shows an out-of-date Adobe Reader and since Adobe seems to be under frequent "attack", I recommend you uninstall this program and as a
"replacement" use the FREE "Foxit Reader, available from
www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php .
Since Ad-Aware from Lavasoft is no longer a top antispyware/antitrojan program,
I recommend you uninstall it and use the FREE Version of "SUPERAntiSpyware"
from
www.superantispyware.com along with the Malwarebytes program as your
2 antispyware/antitrojan programs .
When it comes to antiVIRUS programs, I favor the philosophy of NOT using ANY
"Security" program provided by an Internet Service Provider, such as Yahoo,
who is trying to "tie" the User to their ISP Services. I do favor you "replace" the
"Yahoo Antivirus" with a FREE program like Avast Antivirus Home Edition,
available at
www.avast.com with a very good description at
www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html .
Way down the List of "Things-to-do" is "replacing the "Family Safety" program
of "Windows Live"; there are better programs available .
