I think I have multiple viruses

[IHasAVirus]

I don't know what to say, exactly.
I'll just leave the logfiles then..

I know for a fact that I have the redirect virus.

What problems are you having with your computer exactly? The hijackthis log is extremely short. You got rid of a lot of nasties, but they may have left trouble

 

[IHasAVirus]

I'm still having the occasional google redirect.
It's not happening everytime, but it's still happening.

 

[Tmagic650]

Can you try posting a fresh hijackthis log?

 

[Bobbye]

IHasAVirus, the entire middle section is missing from the HijackThis log> everything below 'running processes' to Services, 023.

That will be entries for R0 through 020 or 021. Please rescan and leave the full log.

 

[IHasAVirus]

I don't know why the first one was missing stuff.

Probably to do with your P2P software installed
Will you be removing that? (Bittorent) or are you still using it?

Hijackthis log looks better, more complete, but what is this entry:
O1 - Hosts: 0.0

Ah, i'm still using that.
If that's definitely it, i'll get rid of it though.
Tmagic, I have no idea.

Its actually a requirement on the 8-Step Removal Guide:

Uninstall File Sharing/P2P Programs

During the cleaning process all File Sharing Programs should be uninstalled
This is to avoid any possible reinfection of any malwares through file sharing

We reserve the right to withdraw our support:

• If such programs are found in your logs
• Should you not agree to their removal.

As they are normally set to bypass your Firewall and Anti-Virus software
Filesharing/P2P Programs serves as a constant threat to your computer

Did you miss anything else in the guide too?

Alright. I uninstalled it.

 

[kimsland]

There were two of them

LimeWire
Bittorent

And its likely you will use them again, as you were "still" using them
There is no use supporting in Malware removal on a Windows computer that will be running P2P, as you will just get re-infected again and again.

Thankfully there is an answer. You can freely use Live Linux discs such as Free Ubuntu, to use P2P all day long, without issue (did I mention that its free)

How about that

 

[Bobbye]

So kimsland, I'll just turn this over to you.

Make note that Limewire has been added.

I know that the uTorrent downloader is very dangerous, but LimeWire can be safe if you have proper protection and good computer cleaning habits. Many here don't know a thing about proper protection let alone have good computing habits...
