    Hi,

    You aren't running the latest version of HijackThis, so if these instructions work but the hijack comes back, please download it again and make sure its version 1.98.0. Then post a log with that :)

    Close all browser windows and tick these items, then choose fix checked
    Then reboot and hopefully its gone :)
