    Hi Folks:

    Have noticed some other threads here with the same issue as I have so I looked around and did the things suggested:

    ran Adaware 6 (with the suggested settings)
    ran Spybot S&D and fixed any problems
    then ran Hijackthis in scan mode and have the results.

    I appreciate the help to advise what to fix

    One other not I tried to remove the Java Virtual Machine that seems toi have been the doorway in for the problem but I was unable to install since it indicated I was missing an .inf file. I then went to the Microsoft update site and installed all the suggested critical patches

    Thanks a bunch!

    Reboot into safe mode by following instructions here: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406
    then as some of the files or folders you need to delete may be hidden do this:
    Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
    Click "Apply" then "OK"

    Delete these files

    C:\WINNT\winstyle.css
    C:\WINNT\system\sysdll32.exe

    Now Run Cwshreddder
    Close all browser windows, click on the cwshredder.exe then click "FIX" (Not "Scan only") and let it do it's thing.


    Reboot After running cwshredder and as soon as possible follow this advice:
    Now as CWS Hijacks are normally installed via the byte verifier exploit in M$ JavaVM, just surfing a page with an infected applet can install it with no user participation. So once you’ve run the above, it is vital that you go here, click Scan for updates in the main frame, and download and install all CRITICAL updates recommended.

    then
    Reboot normally & post a new log to check

    Thanks a lot for the very speedy reply!

    Did as suggested (had a problem with safe mode since I needed Safemode with Network in order to log on to my computer) once I had that undercontrol all went fine. Thanks from California ! :cool:

    Here's the log after the fixes:
