I used AntiVir Guard, WebRoot Spy Sweeper and Hijack This. Rebooting
after
each sweep.
Please tell me if you see anything out of the ordinary.
Thank you,
Bryan

Bryan,
With the type and severity of malware emerging these days, you need to
use
all of these three software (atleast):
1. Ad-Aware
http://www.lavasoftusa.com
2. SpyBot S&D
http://www.safer-networking.org
3. CWShredder
http://www.intermute.com/spysubtract/cwshredder_download.html
** Update 1 & 2 before running a scan **
Clean-up Windows Startup
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/startup.htm
Then, run a full system virus scan: (RAV is proving good)

Wes,
I scanned using Norton (updated viruses) and Spy Speeper, rebooting in
between sweeps.
No viruses and no no adware found.
Any other hints?

[[When you open System Configuration Utility [MSCONFIG], Registry
Editor
or
Task Manager, they flash for a second and quit. This symptom is caused
by
Viruses.]]
Task Manager, MSCONFIG, or REGEDIT disappear while opening

In Bryan <
[email protected]> hunted and pecked:
No system tool is displaying (yes, I am the computer admin).
Actually, I run the program and it flashes for a second and then it
goes away. This happens with, Device manager, Task Manager,
MSCONFIG, you name it. The icons in the system tray do not appear
even though they are all set to "always display". Regedit does not
even display. Which settings have I hosed?
I recently had to format my HD and reinstall my OS. Did I take the
wrong CD off the shelf? (I have three computers)
