    Well now, not only has my browser been hijacked but I am not allowed to left click on "My Computer" nor am I allowed to use "Tools > Internet Options > General > Settings > View Objects". My computer freezes if I attempt either. I have run ad-aware, hijackthis and norton anti-virus until I am blue in the face. I have emptied my temp files and cleared cookies. I am now going to post my hijackthis log in case anyone has come across the same problems and could make a suggestion. Thanks in advance. By the way, I've "Fix Checked" all of those named "http://cashsearch.biz/redir.php". They keep returning.

    PS: I would love to know who owns this domain name. They need to receive a nasty email along with a lawsuit.

    Unzip to folder of choice and doubleclick on runme9x.bat

    A log will open, can you please post that log here?

    Thnx

    Hello Unzy,
    I did what you asked. I clicked on the runme9x.bat and a menu popped up. The first three choices came up as bad command or file name. The fourth one I could access. Did you want a log from all five choices? Thanks.

    Stephen

    I needed a log from option 1

    Sorry I forgot to mention that.

    Is there no log created after running option one?

    If an error box pops up, you can just click OK, that can happen if you have scriptblocking or so

    Make sure you :

    -Unzipped to a folder

    -You are online

    -And have one internet window open (startpage or so, or whatever)

    Thnx

    Cheers,

    Hi,
    No good. I clicked on option 1 and a blank notepad box appeared entitled "log".

    Ok,

    Can you check on your computer via start -> search -> files/folders if you find back the following file :

    system32.dll

    Thnx
