Answer» I hope this will WORK. I hit save to desktop but i don't know what happened cuz it's not there, so i took this log instead. if you need the other one, tell me, and i'll rerun the scan. Also I didn't remove anything with this scan, i just scanned it as suggested (hope that was the right thing to do). Should i have done that or should i do it now, or will it matter.No. It's just iWin games. Please run ESET again and clean the infections and post the log.ok, thanks. It may be a day before i can run the eset, but i'll GET there....here you go C:\Documents and Settings\Candie\My Documents\Downloads\SetupPlaySushi(2).exe a variant of Win32/Adware.Gamevance.AS application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\Documents and Settings\Candie\My Documents\Downloads\SetupPlaySushi(3).exe a variant of Win32/Adware.Gamevance.AS application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\Documents and Settings\Candie\My Documents\Downloads\SetupPlaySushi.exe a variant of Win32/Adware.Gamevance.AS application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\Program Files\iWonEI\Installr\1.bin\jfEIPlug.dll a variant of Win32/Toolbar.MyWebSearch application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\System Volume Information\_restore{202550A8-7A33-4BCA-9586-051D24DDBF8F}\RP1088\A0089734.DLL a variant of Win32/Toolbar.MyWebSearch application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\System Volume Information\_restore{202550A8-7A33-4BCA-9586-051D24DDBF8F}\RP1088\A0089877.DLL Win32/Toolbar.AskSBar application cleaned by deleting - quarantined C:\System Volume Information\_restore{202550A8-7A33-4BCA-9586-051D24DDBF8F}\RP1094\A0090774.dll a variant of Win32/Toolbar.MyWebSearch application cleaned by deleting - quarantined Great.

Clean out your temporary internet files and temp files. Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop. Double-click TFC.exe to run it.

Firewalls protect against hackers and malicious intruders. You need to download a free firewall from one of these reliable vendors. Remember only install ONE firewall 1) Comodo Personal Firewall (Uncheck during installation "Install Comodo SafeSurf..", Make Comodo my default search provider" and "Make Comodo Search my homepage" and uncheck any HopSurf and/or Ask.com options if you choose this one) 2) Online Armor 3) Agnitum Outpost 4) PC Tools Firewall Plus If you are using the built-in Windows XP firewall, it is not recommended as it does not block outgoing connections. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Simply put, Windows XP contains a mediocre firewall. This firewall is NO replacement for a dedicated software solution. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time. ********************************************** Use the Secunia Software Inspector to check for out of date software. •Click Start Now •Check the box next to Enable thorough system inspection. •Click Start •Allow the scan to finish and scroll down to see if any updates are needed. •Update anything listed. . ---------- Go to Microsoft Windows Update and get all critical updates. ---------- I suggest using WOT - Web of Trust.

Should I also uninstall any of the other programs i used like ESET or SysRoot? Also i need to delete the mcafee which was downloaded and installed , can i do that thru add/remove programs or is there something special i need to do? And last question, regarding firewalls, i have norton internet security which has a firewall so do i need to install one? Your note says to have only one firewall and i don't want to goof things up. Thanks, for helping me out. Quote Should I also uninstall any of the other programs i used like ESET or SysRoot?Yes. Any tools we use can be uninstalled or deleted. You can keep SAS and MBAM, if you wish. Update them and run them on a regular basis. Quote Also i need to delete the mcafee which was downloaded and installed , can i do that thru add/remove programs or is there something special i need to do?Yes. You should do through add/remove programs. If you have problems removing it, use the McAfee Removal Tool below. McAfee Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR.exe) Quote norton internet security which has a firewall so do i need to install one?That's considered a third-party firewall.
