    Hi Seph,

    Yes, it means LOP. Have her uninstall that MessengerPlus so she doesn't reinfect herself on an update or upgrade and have her get something spyware free like Trillian (free) or just plain old Messenger.

    First, please print out these instructions to have handy, since the following steps will be in SAFE MODE where you cannot go online

    Download CWShredder - but don't run it yet. Just have it handy. I'm not sure we need it but since the site the PC was hijacked to is a know Coolwebsearch domain, I would just like to be sure it is not on there as well. We'll do the scan while in safe mode.
    http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/downloads/tools/CWShredder.exe

    Now, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode:
    How to start the computer in Safe mode
    http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPOR...2001052409420406?OpenDocument&src=sec_doc_nam

    Scan with HijackThis and when it finishes, put an x in the boxes next to these items, then press *fix checked*

    R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://mysearchnow.com/passthrough/...www.google.com/

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings,ProxyServer =

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {D10C5010-A042-C4A0-9B41-001E63A2EC6B} - C:\PROGRA~1\BINDCA~1\gplpop.dll (file missing)

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MessengerPlus3] "C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\MsgPlus.exe"

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [iso ante] C:\PROGRA~1\BOLTWI~1\Ping thunk that.exe

    O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MessengerPlus3] "C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\MsgPlus.exe" /WinStart

    Stay in SAFE MODE, and delete the following named in bold

    C:\PROGRAM FILES\BINDCA <---delete folder (name starts with those letters)

    C:\PROGRAM FILES\BOLTWI <--delete folder (name starts with those letters).

    Run the CWShredder. click on it (You will need to have all browsers and any open windows closed). Hit the *Fix* button to run it. Let it fix what it finds. When done, press *next* and you will get the results, and then *exit*

    Now, reboot back into normal mode and scan once more with HijackThis and post a fresh log please to see what might remain to be fixed. :)
