Hi TC
My comments in line below:
hiya me again
well i done lots of things too get it sorted.run loads of teste and looked
in loads of files.basically took the advice given and tried it.
And yup you guessed it no joy again.
i tried a system restore but that still didnt work.i even went and
switched
my system restore off since a lot on viruses can be saved in there and
ainti
virus doesent scan in there so iv heard.found a little trojan but nothing
special.
First off, I want to advise that you should never disable the System
Restore, as it is often the only lifeboat available to you if your system
becomes a Titanic, when all else fails to restore your machine and prevent
loss of all your data. If there is any scumware or viruses in the SR, they
can not hurt anything unless you need to restore to a point only in which
the infection took place. Any period before that is safe. The SR files
will eventually flush themselves out with time and be gone. However, if you
are really concerned about the fact they are there, you can do a manual
flush of the system by disabling it, rebooting, and then immediately
re-enable it and create a new restore point. But, acutally, if it came down
to your machine being unable to be saved any other way, even restoring it
with a virus or malware is better than losing all your data. They can be
dealt with far easier than the loss of all your data. This is the advice of
many experts who are involved very closely with the System Restore and write
articles on it. Therefore, I strongly advise you to leave it alone and
always keep it enabled.
so im stuck again.i have done spybot/lava soft ad aware scan.virus scan
spysweeper scan a reg scan and used 3 cleaners too check if anything left
but
nothing is there.i done all this with system restore off and in safe mode
so
that nothing was running in back ground and i still get the same thing
come
up at the bottom bar in IE.I tried the page that tells you how too
reinstall
IE but couldn seem too get that too work properly.i think i may need a
fresh
install of IE and hopefully it may help i dont know.
thanks for your help jan,i apprieciate it.anything else that can be
thought
of too do please say.
Have you run the CWShredder and HiJackThis yet? These are two very powerful
tools in dealing with various types of malware other programs can not deal
with. If you have not, then please do these two very important steps first
off. Also, please post a link back here to the forum where you post your
