Yea.... I've had my fair share of trojans, Viruses, Browser hijacks..... and god knows what else I've had to get rid of.... the worst was prolly the 2002 Sasser worm....... ugh! Dial up and trying to install the removal, that was fun..... I wish you the best on removing, may I suggest http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ it has saved me about 15 times..... Cheers, Gunny

What protection do you have on your PC? Why isn't it eliminating the problem?
If the worst comes to the worst boot up in safe mode and delete 'em by hand Wink

LOL, sorry but what I find funny is I was going to post, "I bet he runs Norton",  right after Ozzy, but decided it was in bad taste to the Norton fans.

Guess it wasn't after all Grin

Good move on getting NOD32!! you won't have these troubles with it.
Make sure before you install NOD32 to completely remove Norton, the easiest and most complete way would be a format. Or you could go in and attempt to remove it "by hand"
