Hi Matt

Good news. The log is now free of malware.

norton antivirus is not a firewall. The two are different.

It is vital you install and use a good (free) firewall if you don't have one. Here are some to choose from ......

Zone Alarm > http://www.zonelabs.com/store/conten...n&lid=nav_z a

Sygate > http://www.simtel.net/product.downlo...s.php?id=53687

Sunbelt Firewall (formerly Kerio) > http://www.sunbelt-software.com/Home...onal-Firewall/

Comodo > http://www.comodo.com/products/free_products.html

Jetico > http://www.jetico.com/index.htm#/jpfirewall.htm

Im not sure if this has been resolved.
Well, "Save" isn't in your log and there’s no longer any signal that it’s running on your system.

Did you manage to delete the "Save" folder, as I instructed, even though it wasn't in Add/Remove Programs?


Just to check I'd like to see a list of programs starting on your system.

Open HijackThis.

Click on Open Misc Tools Section

Make sure that both boxes beside "Generate StartupList Log" are ticked/checked ….
> List all minor sections(Full)
> List Empty Sections(Complete)
Click Generate StartupList Log.

Click Yes at the prompt.

It will open a text file (it could be quite long).

Please copy the entire contents of that page and paste it here.
