    Hi RMOREAR,

    I don't see any hijackers in your log. Where are you being hijacked to?

    Regards,

    Ah yes. That one was all I needed to make this day perfect. :rolleyes:

    Download VX2Finder from this link:
    http://tools.zerosrealm.com/VX2Finder.exe

    Run Vx2Finder click on the *click to find VX2.BetterInternet* button. Then click *make log*.

    Copy and paste the contents of the log into your next reply here.

    Regards,

    Pieter

    Good job. Now you have to stay off the net until all files are deleted (that is after the second reboot)

    Open VX2Finder it and click on the *click to find VX2.BetterInternet* button.
    Select the files in that window.
    Then click the *Delete these files* button.
    You will be left with notice about one to be deleted on reboot.
    It will ask to reboot on deletion of the last file (do that)

    After that last file is gone go to
    Start > run > type regedit enter and Navigate to :

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify\GuardianFTXPI

    (Note : the five letters in caps at the end may have changed [FTXPI] but it will still start with Guardian)

    Right click on the Guardiano_O?? key and select delete.
    Close Regedit.
    Reboot.

    Open VX2Finder again and select:
    User Agent$ > yes to confirm delete.
    and then
    Restore Policy

    Exit and reboot.

    Regards,

    Pieter

    To check if everything is OK, you can make a new VX2Finder log and post it.

    Regards,
