Twaintec.dll Removal?
Does anyone know any method to remove this file. I've tried just about everything and I'm at my wits end right now. I've read to try a number of things (del through safe mode, NAV removal, auto exec., ad-aware, etc.) I'm running windows XP corp. I've also gone to their website and those removal instructions do not work. I didn't install this on my cpu and I want it off


Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hoya,

As you may know, this is adware. There probably are multiple copies of the dll on your computer.

Suggest you get ad-aware and update and run it.

Suggest you then get spybot and let it delete all it finds.

Please tell us the results.

Install MoveOnBoot, then right click on it and select to Delete on Boot, then reboot. After using, please use HijackThis, and post a log on here, I am sure there are some extra things left. The link is below.

I tried ad-aware again. Normally it would come up and say that it could not remove it but would try at next re-boot. I tried to scan again. There must have been a new update that just came out and I got it. I did a reboot and adaware deleted it...............I think. Should be OK, but I'll keep you posted.

Thanks

A hijackthis log would still be a good idea. I'm with markp62 that there is likely to be more junk you would be better without.

Pretty clean log as far as I can tell. Scan again and place a check next to the following. Close all other windows and click fix.

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
O16 - DPF: {FE1A240F-B247-4E06-A600-30E28F5AF3A0} - file://C:\install.cab

Are you still having problems? Errors?

no problems. See my previous post. Ad aware was able to delete it, finally! I recommend people with adaware use it to get rid of this. Make sure you have all of the latest updates though
