highlighting in IEbrowser window

Hi, running XP pro, run Ad-aware, spysweeper and spybotSD regularly. Haven't run HJT yet, as I haven't read the tutorial on how to deal with the results yet.
I'm getting odd keywords in text in IE browser windows turned into links- words like spyware, adware, worm, sex, trojan, and others.
any ideas on how to deal w/this?
TIA,
karinne

Re: highlighting in IEbrowser window

Here are my HJT logs- 2 of them. the first was the original log, the second was the log after I went in and tried to fix. The problem I had trying to fix the log was that there's one item I could not get rid of after multiple fixes. Listed below:


R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = http://www.begin2search.com/googlesidesearch.html

I don't know much about BHO's so didn't alter any of them.

(I sent as attachments, if you are unable /unwilling to open them, email/post again and I will post the log in message to list.
TIA,

Re: highlighting in IEbrowser window

They are not attached. You shouldn't try fixing things yourself. It just makes things harder for us.

Re: highlighting in IEbrowser window

Hi,
ran HJT, fixed selected items. Set to show hidden folders, etc, in folder view mode & rebooted in Safe.
Once in C:\Win\sys32 etc, did not show a nifblxx.exe file at all, would not let me delete w32time.exe, said "protected".
also, I'm a bit unsure about the deletion of the win\download....anything at all files. Some of those seem to be things I *want*....or are they just 'residue' from the download process?
Didn't want to go ahead before totally sure.
thank you for your assistance...I appreciate it.
TIA,
kwallace
new HJT log attached.

Re: highlighting in IEbrowser window

Sorry I think I got that wrong. The nasty that your looking for is located in a folder that begins with DOWNLO and the file I want you to delete is DOWNLO~1.DLL where ~1 are some extra letters that I can't determine. Don't delete the folder as I instructed, just look in folders beginning with that. Its related to Adsbar Adware.

If w32time.exe won't delete, hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and end the process w32time.exe and try again.
