Please help with my hijackthis log...
Hello. My computer has been attacked by pop-ups, new toolbars, new favorites, etc. I downloaded HijackThis and I have the resulting log pasted below. Can anyone tell me what I should mark with a check to delete? Thank you so much.

Hello there. Thank you for your advice!! I have another quick question. I recognize a couple of the things you told me to check. One is the 2Wire\Gateway\ thing as the name of the thing that connects me to DSL. And Snapfish is the name of the website where I download and purchase copies of photos. If I delete these two, will that cause problems with DSL or with the photo website? I really appreciate your explanation....

I doubt it will mess anything up, but if you want to leave those two checked that should be ok.

Advice for avoiding these problems in the future.
Just wanted to say thank you so much--you really helped me out. I was ready to throw the computer out the window, go buy another one and never get on the internet again!!
Do you have any advice for avoiding these problems again? I rarely download anything from the internet (the only thing I downloaded recently was an e-book by a guy I trusted, but maybe the website was bad and he didn't know?). Also, how important is it to not be logged onto your home computer as the adminstrator--I've heard you should use a "limited account." Any advice for avoiding this in the future would be useful! (I have a firewall and anti-virus program installed). Thanks. |

I see you have Windows XP with SP2 installed. You probably had all of this junk before you upgraded. With IE6 SP2, it's more difficuilt to get infected with spyware unless you install the applications. Most free apps have spyware in them, that's how most are free.

Also, to help you should download Spyware Blaster, which helps a lot, especially if you have people that have a tendency to click 'yes' to everything that pops up.
