hijack analysis

[Will Renkel]

I see in many posts that the suggestion for analyzing a hijack logfile
is to post it to the web and hope someone will analyze it.
I discovered a better first step.
after saving the log file go to

http://www.hijackthis.de/index.php?langselect=english

and get a free first cut analysis yourself.
I used the browse option and it gave me great insight to the situation.
In fact I found the "nasty" I was looking for
and told hijack to fix that one
and whoopie - my problem went away.

Good luck to anyone else who can resolve their issues that way!

That site can give some very wrong analyses.
