Need to remove Adware.trust in bar; Have Hijackthis logfile

[Big Dog]

Hi:

My name is Sam and I'm a newbee. I accidentally downloaded an adware.trustinbar virus. Norton antivirus didn't give me helpful instructions
to remove. Can this be deleted by Hijackthis? Any help would be greatly appreciated. :wave: I've attached my logfile.

Sam

Hello and welcome to Techspot.

Go and have your computer scanned HERE.

Then, go and read both these threads by RBS. Follow all the instructions exactly.

How to remove Trojans and its ilk! and How to remove Begin2search / coolwebsearch and other nasties.

Then see. How to post your Hijackthis log-file as an ATTACHMENT.

Only post your HJT log, after doing the above.

Regards Howard :wave: :wave:

Ok, thanks for the advice. I believe I've followed the instructions pretty
closely and it may have deleted some of my cookies and some odd spyware, I think the adware.trustinbar is still on there.

Here is my Hijack txt logfile. If you can suggest which items to "fix" I would
greatly appreciate it.

Thanks again,
Sam

Boot into safe mode. See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial61.html

Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial56.html

In Windows Explorer, turn on "Show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how HERE. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial62.html

Run HJT with no other programmes open. Have HJT fix the following, by placing a tick in the little box next to(if there).

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page =
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName =
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Fix all 016-DPF entries no matter what they are.

Click on the fix checked button.

Close HJT.

Reboot into normal mode and turn system restore back on.
