Hijack This Log

Just to give you guys a heads up, theres 3 programs in their that I recognize that I uninstalled 2 - 3 months ago and they are sticking to the registry. No matter how many times I try removing them they keep returning. The programs are MessengerPlus3!, x3watch, and FBDIRECT which is my scanner that wont work on XP. How can I remove these programs? Also please notify me of anything else that needs to be removed. Thanks in Advance!

Hi and welcome,

I'm here from another forum helping out when I can.

Go into add/remove program and remove:(IF FOUND)

MessengerPlus3
x3Watch
FBDirect

Then:

Now reboot into safe mode by tapping your F8 key upon restart and safe mode screen appears, select safe mode and press enter.

Now go into PROGRAM FILES and delete these folder(s):

C:\Program Files\MessengerPlus! 3 < folder
C:\Program Files\X3watch < folder

Removing your scanner thru add/remove should be good if it is found there.

Thanks for that info. I figured out why those programs kept popping back up in the registry. I have Ad-Watch running and Microsoft Beta 1 running and both of them prevent manual removal and restore the registry after you remove it. So I had to turn them off, remove the the programs from the registry and then turn them back on. Thanks for the info though and I will keep them in mind.
