I foolishly tried looking for a Nero Burning Rom crack for someone, when I noticed one of those damn pages said it was "installing cab" so I closed it right away.


Now every 5 minutes something puts files on my desktop, start menu, and favorites folder. It changes my Homepage too.

I've run Lavasoft Ad-Aware and AVG Anti-virus, cleared out all cookies and temp files, but it keeps coming back.

I'm thinking I need to delete something in the registry? Any advice?


thanks. you've earned a Smiley: cookie

Yup, that's a browser hijack. What does it set the homepage to? Once you post that I can post targetted instructions for removal.

ack! that's a lot of stuff.

First thing I'd do is reset your hosts file, and then reset the registry keys for IE.

Do you know how to proceed from here, or need a bit more info?



I'm sure there's gotta be an easier way to do this than doing it by hand though...ad-aware always worked for me. DId you try Laurenthasala's suggestion of Spybot S&D? I've never used it, but I have to admit it might be easier than going through and resetting things manually.

Ok, I ran Spybot S&D. It found a lot of stuff relating to my problem, and supposedly "Fixed" it, but it still comes back.


If you refer to my previous post, I highlited in yellow all the items I deleted through Hijackthis, but it still came back anyway.


I don't know how to do the "host" thing. Some online research told me I might have a fake "svchost.exe" but the solutions were fuzzy.


Any advice?


Thanks again to all who responded.
