Hacktool.Rootkit Problem

[Sycamor]

Hello,

I read the sticky threads regarding removing Hacktool.Rootkit, but have had no success. Norton indicates that I have a Hacktool.Rootkit virus. However, I could find none of the malicious processes mentioned in the post (javapanel.exe, taskcntr.exe, xpjava.exe). I don't know if my particular problem has different processes and files associated with it and don't know how to identify them. A HJT log is posted and would appreciate any help as to what I should do next.

Thank you very much. I appreciate the time you folks give to helping people with technical problems.

and follow the LOCKX.EXE instructions. Do the same for POKAPOKA70.EXE
C:\WINNT\system32\lockx.exe
C:\WINNT\etb\pokapoka70.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [stratas] lockx.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [System service70] C:\WINNT\etb\pokapoka70.exe

Thank you very much. I did what you recommended and the problem seems to be fixed. I ran RootkitRevealer and nothing seems out of the ordinary. Thank you for your time and your help and your continued dedication. You are an invaluable resource.
