Yes, if that is what the virus is programmed to do.

Not really. In the old days, there were apps like Back Orifice, in which you could do stuff like that. But it's been patched since the days of Win95. To do what you're indicating, someone would have to have physical access to the computer and manually load things without your knowledge. You're not going to catch a bug while watching gay midget porn that would have the capabilities of that. It's possible, but so unlikely that you shouldn't worry about it.

actually, i believe i got it when i was trying to look for pics of that sexy blonde oregon cheerleader with the sexy eyes.

well that's good. i was actually really suprised to see the system restore worked as well as it did while not in safe mode. i figured it was changed or something. hopefully it wasn't just something set deep in the comp that will appear again next time i turn the comp on, on a certain date or something. can't believe malwarebytes wasn't working.

what has me snowed is the fact that i can't turn my antivirus back on. and that Rkill keeps terminating some program still.

i guess i'll work on it some more tomorrow or friday. thanks for the help.

Glad we could help. :-)

If Safe Mode is working, I'd run the scan there, and you could post a HiJackThis log, too.

Going to run safe mode now and run malware bytes

here is the current hijack this

Ok, did a system restore to like 4 days ago since that stupid windows utility tool malware was not letting me do ****. Ran an updated version of malware bytes and it removed 2 trojans. Ran Spybot and it removed 1 file as well, and avast ran a full scan as well and found 1 html file and all were removed and the pc rebooted and scanned again.

Here is the hijack this...super cpu guys see anything out of the ordinary?

If you're not intentionally going through a proxy server, delete those.

Everything else looks good... you can delete those two BHO (no name) entries, just to clean up.

If you want it to start up a little faster, you could get rid of the O4 - HKLM entries for QuickTime, Adobe, and iTunes (or uncheck them in msconfig), and go to Start -> Run -> services.msc and set the Apple/Bounjour/iPod services to Manual. But, it's XP, so there probably won't be much of a difference.... I'm just anal about Apple processes. :-)

I usually run them until I get one good clean scan, so looks like you're set.
