Hi... This is what happens from the begining. I turn on the computer. When Zone Alarm finishes loading at startup, it tells me that IEXPLORE.exe is trying to act as a server on the internet. Of course the real iexplore.exe from c:\program files is not running. This one comes from "c:\windows\$MSI31Uninstall_KB893803v2$", just to name one, since every time I erase the file, another one comes out from a folder with a similar name. Then, after finding out that no antivirus/antispyware detects it, I go to regedit and start deleting the entries, but when I restart the computer, the registry entries are back, and IEXPLORE.exe is trying to gain access to internet and act as a server again! ... PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME IT'S DRIVING ME CRAAZY! THANX Bada Bing!

Download HijackThis to your desktop. Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop. By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This. Continue to click "next" in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the "Select Addition Tasks" dialogue. Put a check by "Create a desktop icon" then click "Next" again. Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there. At the final dialogue box click "Finish" and it will launch Hijack This. Click on the "Do a system scan and save a logfile" button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad. Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log and post it in this thread.

Thank you so much for trying to help me out murr but I've finally killed it. Apparently it was the trojan.directx malware that kept creating those explorer.exe files. I used PREVX since no other antivirus/antispyware detected it. Thanx again! Bada Bing!
