Download HijackThis
iibriarroseiii said:Help! I have a malware program on my computer that is messing things up
royaly. Program's name is mssearchnet.exe, I've followed all the
recomendations from Norton and such, but now my computer won't restart
normally. Steps I've taken already-
1) turned off system restore
2) run and updated norton- it did find a virus, Trojan_downloader and
it was deleated
3) mssearchnet adds a reg key that i've deleated
4) removed all spyware
5) removed the program i had originally thought was the problem-
spywarestrike 2.5
6) i did 2-5 in safemode
now when i try and start up my computer, it won't start normally and it
just asks if i want to restart in safe mode. the boot is set to start
up in normal mode.
I see what you mean, but the recommended download of Hijackthis is from the
creator website!.. and majorgeeks is a reliable download site, and as for
the recommended forospyware downloads, that was an honest mistake, that's
why I included the majorgeeks download site in the second post..
as for my
posts, they have never been deleted! And my Identity has been the same since
two and a half or three years ago! I have used one other identity to
respond about three
times, and the spyware solutions I offer, the solution depends on the user,
but they work in most cases! As for the wrong links, we all make mistakes
but as long as they are honest mistakes and there was no harm done, what is
the problem? As for Usenet, until today I had never heard of the word, I
don't waste my time accessing sites were I have to register myself and the
foul content you speak about, maybe I need a program [which I don't require
as most people] to see what you see because I don't see the said foul
content you say...
As for your implication of me having 20+ different Identities, can you prove
it?
I have not missed any of my answers so I'm sure that was another mistake..."The part about identities/morphing, and the part about the posts being
deleted was incorrect on my part (I think)."
I have already admited that mistake, and the links led to nowhere, so noThe part about downloading from unknown sites, posting direct links to
files, that stands.

The posting of direct links to exe files is always a thread, you should
post a link to the web page that includes the link to the exe file.

This was a big mistake on my part - I had pasted the wrong reply into
the thread and only meant to post the threat part, not the typical part
about chap that is always doing what you did.

I screwed up, sorry.
TO THE GROUP: With the exception of posting direct links to files, the
rest of the implications of the post (where I suggested that the poster
was someone else) are incorrect on my part, it was a mistake for me to
include the morphing part or the suggestion that the person was not who
they suggested.
As for your implication of me having 20+ different Identities, can you prove
it?
Again, it appears to have been a mistake on my part, as the method you
used to post the link is a bad method, used by one of the resident
security threats, and I didn't check the link before I posted the wrong
response.
