My PC woke up with the "Google Redirect" social disease. Ran 8 steps twice. Now what?

Kaspersky Logfile attached, looks like a few infected emails...

Jave updated to latest version (now Update 17) and ran Kaspersky as instructed.

Log file is attached.

Note: I've manually deleted the infected atapi.sys files, and confirmed that the installed atapi.sys still compares okay with a known good file. I've also deleted the website backup file and all the Outlook Express files in D:\temp, since they were just old barnacles....

Do you have a tool that can sanitize the remaining Outlook and Outlook Express files? I'm happy to delete the infected emails, but I'd rather not wipe all the old emails, since some of them serve as an archive for my business.

Don't know of a tool to do that, the rest of the logs are clean.

Are you experiencing any more issues?
 
All clear! (knock on wood)

Google has been well behaved for quite a while now. I guess I'll just leave those old email files, but remember to scan any attachements before opening them.

Thanks again for your help!

Best Regards,
