Malware removal in safe mode(RESOLVED)

Tomorrow I will be attempting to clean a friend's computer of malware (Trojans mostly).
A post on a forum, Symantec I think, suggests scanning in safe mode as a method of cleaning which will prevent theses things from replicating, which he tells me they are doing.
I don't know the names of the malware yet, only that he has been having trouble for a few days, including things like being directed to wrong pages by his browser (sounds like spy/adware, and trojans have also been mentioned), will have more info soon I hope.
After reading Windows Help & Support I am not sure if safe mode will allow me to run a virus scan, so can someone tell me if safe mode does allow me to run a virus scan? Or suggest other methods of permanent removal. All suggestions will be welcome.

I've moved your thread to our Security etc forums. The Security Personnel there will be able to better provide the answers you seek.

Thanks for that Dan, after I made the post I realised I should have placed it in this part of the forum.
I like this forum, you muck up and people are still nice, but I should look more closely before my next post

Welcome,


Please download and install the latest version of HijackThis v2.0.2:Delete the old version you have

CLICK HERE to download the HijackThis Installer:TrendSecure | Download TrendMicro HijackThis

1. Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
2. Double-click on HJTInstall.exe to run the program.
3. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
4. Accept the license agreement by clicking the "I Accept" button.
5. Click on the "Do a system scan and save a log file" button. It will scan and then ask you to save the log.
6. Click "Save log" to save the log file and then the log will open in Notepad.
7. Click on "Edit -> Select All" then click on "Edit -> Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
8. Come back here to this thread and paste the log in your next reply.
9. Do NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet! Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Hi
After seeing the Trojans found by Malwarebytes I sent a screen shot of how to disable System Restore (recently had a worm hiding in there myself) and the following scan turned up clear.
Thanks for the help.
Thanks also for suggesting Malwarebytes, I was considering this app myself, and awaiting some opinions. The DAL recommendation sealed that question, and reminded me why I come here.
