HELP! contexualsearch and logpilelies

1254 Views 25 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  buckaroo, 
I
I need some help. I was looking for the words to a song and ended up clicking on something bad I believe. Now I have this horrible contexualsearch toolbar that pops up on my screen whenever I log onto the internet. Also it tried to put about a dozen programs on my desktop but I pressed cancel and I think I got rid of them. It keeps trying to change my homepage and my popup blocker isn't working anymore. I downloaded and ran both adaware and spybot search and destroy. That got rid of an awful lot of stuff but didn't touch this at all. So I've been looking for the fix and saw that I should try the HijackThis. I ran it and will post at the bottom what it came up with.
I have Windows XP and run Outlook Express and Internet Explorer 6.0
Thanks for the help
Renee

Hello :)
Run hijackthis again and put a checkmark against these entries....double check
in case you miss anything....
.....then,close all browser and outlook windows and "fix checked"

Please Download LSPFix from http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.zip and Run the Program.
Disconnect from the Internet and close all Internet Explorer Windows.
Check the "I know what I'm doing" Button and remove all traces of
nmtracer.dll

Reboot into safe mode by following instructions here: http://helpdesk.its.bethel.edu/resnet/Documents/Antivirus/Safemode.html
then as some of the files or folders you need to delete may be hidden do this:
Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"

Locate and delete:
C:\PROGRAM FILES\NETRATINGS [FOLDER]
C:\WINNT\emsw.exe [FILE]

Reboot into normal mode again and post another log.

Its not your Win32,i already checked that one out.
"HIDDEN32.EXE" i think is possibly part of a utillity to hide applications....could be wrong,thats why we need confermation.

Samantha Spade strikes again;)
