Why do have 4 anti-virus program on the same PC ???

They will conflict with one another.



Install portable version of ClamWin anti-virus in a USB pen drive and scan your PC with it.



ClamWin is a Free Antivirus for Microsoft Windows that uses the GNU General

Public License by the Free Software Foundation and is free (as in freedom)

software. It can detect and remove more than 400,000 Trojans and viruses.



Use another clean PC to download Clamwin portable anti-virus and install it on a USB pen drive.



Download here

http://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/clamwin_portable



Document on how to configure ClamWin

http://support.real-time.com/open-source/clamwin/index.html



Start Clamwin anti-virus and update the latest anti-virus definition files.

Select the tools menu bar, set the preferences to remove virus.

Start the infected PC in safe mode by pressing F8 during start up.

Run the Clamwin Anti-virus that is installed on the USB pen drive to scan the

infected PC.

After removing the virus, install crap cleaner (ccleaner) to get rid of the

viruses left over setting in the windows registry.

Hi



You should post Hijack This logs on specialised forums, such as:

http://forums.whatthetech.com/HijackThis_Logs_and_Infections_Removal_f27.html



But I recommend you scan your computer with Superantispyware free and Malwarebytes Antimalware free first, to see if they can clean the malware.
