about:blank and other unwanted items.

I've used Adaware and Spybot Search & Destroy and my homepage still says about:blank for some reason. I also get an adult webpage coming up on my desktop (family computer and all that).

Below is my logfile, and I'd be grateful for any help given. Being an inexperienced computer user doesn't help matters either.

Sorry about the response time. Due to the response time, I now need a new Hijack This log because the infection has almost certainly morphed.

michaelh · #3 (**permalink**) 28-02-2005, 03:04 PM

Thanks for the reply Owen. Unfortunately, since my post, my computer has got a lot worse. I am unble to open the Recycle Bin as my computer just freezes and I have to shut down. Also, when I click on the 'Start' menu to try and open My Documents or My Computer, the computer freezes again and I have to shut down. This means that I can't get a new Hijackthis log as I am unable to to open the program, as it is located in My Documents - which I can't get to.

Also, I keep getting Adult web pages saved into my 'Favourites'. I deleted them, and remembered you saying (in one of your other messages on the forum) that I should also delete it from the Recycle Bin so it can't come back - which, as explained above, I can't open.

I am going to phone Hewlett Packard and Freeserve to see if they can help, but I would be more than grateful if you could also give me any advice on what I could do to try and fix the problems.
(someone mentioned the word 're-boot' to me, but at the time is not an acceptable thing to do)

Thanks for your help.

I'm afraid I need to have access to a Hijack This log to be able to help. Can you get me a new Hijack This log? If possible, generate one in Safe Mode and use another PC to post it here or your own if possible.
