    The last couple days everytime I log on I get a window saying that Windows cannot open file.

    Does anyone know what updater.lnk. disabled is?

    I haven't detected any problem as yet but this popup window is becoming annoying.

    Hi pinkunicorn - Welcome to the Board :)

    Looks like you have spyware/malware or trojan aboard.

    Download Spybot and Ad-aware - links in my signature - immediately update their reference files - run and delete all they find.

    If this fails to eliminate the problem download HijackThis - in my sig, save it to a folder on your hard drive and run it from there. Scan, save log.

    Copy and paste log here - do not fix anything until advised to do so by one of the experts in these logs.

    Moving this to Security/Virus/Spyware

    This is my logfile. I downloaded Spybot and it said everything was OK. I used to have Spybot, but it never found anything. But I took your advice and ran Adaware and Spybot anyway.

    Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you Pete for taking the time to help me.

    All in all, it looks good, except for these two minor items, one you already know about. Use HijackThis to remove.

    O3 - Toolbar: QuickSearch Search Bar - {82315A18-6CFB-44a7-BDFD-90E36537C252} - C:\Program Files\QuickSearch\QuickSearchBar1_27.dll (file missing)
    O4 - Global Startup: updater.lnk.disabled

    If the folder ":\Program Files\QuickSearch' exists, you can delete it.

    I do have one more question, after I used Hijack This I found myself with files scattered all over the desktop. At present HijackThis is in C:program Files\HijackThis.exe.

    I did see a thread where instructions were given so that all the logs would go into a Hijack file. I can't find the thread again, so I would like to know if I just cut and paste the files from the desktop or is there another way to handle this.

    Yes, you can cut and paste the log files into another folder.
