Do you have any problems with your Desktop, any problems changing the wallpaper?

Get About:Buster, update it, and close for now.
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4289.html
Get Smitrem.Zip, and unzip to the desktop.
http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click counter/click.php?id=1

Rescan with HJT and remove these items.

Close HJT and run About:Buster twice, back to back.

Reboot into Safe Mode and delete these files.

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\QTTASK.EXE << it is a fake
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\intell32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\EJAH.DLL

Delete this folder.

C:\Program Files\PSGuard

Delete all files and folders located this folder.
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP

Now go into the Smitrem, and doubleclick RunThis.Bat, your desktop may do some weird things. I recommend this for prevention as you have one aspect of this infection in your log. It must be done in Safe Mode.

Please post a new HJT log.

A. Yes, you are correct, I did have problems with the Desktop!

B. Did everything you suggested.
Exceptions:
B1. Did not find \EJAH.DLL anywhere
B2. Did not find \PSGuard anywhere
B3. In addition to TEMP, I also deleted the files in Temporary Internet Files (maybe this was not needed, but just in case...)

C. New HJT log:

Everything appears to be running OK now
Thank you!

I hope you are running fine, but I see an item in the log which concerns me.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [intell32.exe] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\intell32.exe

That may be an orphan, but it wouldn't hurt to be sure the file isn't there. It was good deleting the Temp IE files.

Have a good day!
