    Again I apologize for the mistake. For the benefit of the forums readers, I was very tired last night and thought that broni had requested that I post my results on his site. We must have have both posted the result on bbs at the same time.

    Please download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder
    • Run JavaRa.exe (Vista users! Right click on JavaRa.exe, click Run As Administrator), pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
    • Accept any prompts.
    • Open JavaRa.exe again and select Search For Updates.
    • Select Update Using Sun Java's Website then click Search and click on the Open Webpage button. Download and install the latest Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version for your computer.

    Note 1: UNCHECK any pre-checked toolbar and/or software offered with the Java update. The pre-checked toolbars/software are not part of the Java update.

    Note 2: The Java Quick Starter (JQS.exe) adds a service to improve the initial startup time of Java applets and applications. If you don't want to run another extra service, go to Start > Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Miscellaneous and uncheck the box for Java Quick Starter. Click OK and restart your computer.

    =================================================================

    Disable TeaTimer, as it'll interfere with the cleaning process:
    Right click Spybot's TeaTimer System Tray Icon.
    Click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
    TeaTimer closes.
    NOTE. If on re-boot, Spybot inquires about registry change(s), allow it.

    ================================================================

    HJT log

    Note: I chose to download the jdk kit instead of jre. when asked whether or not to allow the program to access the web by spf, the spf dialogue crashed. The jdk installer then rolled back to where it left off and continued. I also still cannot access my spf due to the password change mentioned at the beginning of my post.

    Why? You don't need JDK, you need JRE.
    Please, correct it.

    As for Sygate, you may need to reinstall it, or go with some other product.

    Other than that....

    Your computer is clean :)

    1. Turn off System Restore:

    - Windows XP:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Right-click the My Computer icon, and then click Properties.
    3. Click the System Restore tab.
    4. Check "Turn off System Restore ".
    5. Click Apply.
    6. When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click Yes to do this.
    7. Click OK.
    - Windows Vista:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Right-click the Computer icon, and then click Properties.
    3. Click on System Protection under the Tasks column on the left side
    4. Click on Continue on the "User Account Control" window that pops up
    5. Under the System Protection tab, find Available Disks
    6. Uncheck the box for any drive you wish to disable system restore on (in most cases, drive "C: ")
    7. When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click "Turn System Restore Off" on the popup window to do this.
    8. Click OK

    2. Restart computer.

    3. Turn System Restore on.

    4. Make sure, Windows Updates are current.

    [SIZE= "4"]5. If any Trojan was listed among your infection(s), make sure, you change all of your on-line important passwords (bank account(s), secured web sites, etc.) immediately![/SIZE]

    6. Download, and install WOT (Web OF Trust): http://www.mywot.com/. It'll warn you (in most cases) about dangerous web sites.

    7. Run defrag at your convenience.

    8. Read How did I get infected?, With steps so it does not happen again!: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic2520.html

    9. Please, let me know, how is your computer doing.

    Thanks so much

    JDk contains a copy of JRE. I am in the process of teaching myself web development as well as program development. Plus the MSWD suite has it's limitations and drawbacks.

    I will change it to JRE if you strongly advise If so would you be so kind as to give me your reasons?

    I have uninstalled Sygate and the computer is running like lightning for a Celeron single core, I even tried multitasking using Photoshop. I will change all passwords immediately, just for safety sake, however i have seen no detections of trojans since before i formatted the hdd to put in my current pc.

    If there are no objections, I will leave you with my utmost gratitude, and close this thread. I have printed out your instructions as well as the log files for my own analysis and education.

    Nice working with you and I hope to not have to post in this section of bbs or any other forum again. I hope to work with you soon in a different section.

    Thanks again

    In that case, you're fine.

    I'm glad, your computer is back to normal :)
    Happy surfing :)
