Due to spyware I can no longer search from the Internet Explorer address bar. I ran AdAware and deleted everything it found. I also scanned for viruses. Below is my HiJack this log. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Have you tried Spybot yet?

Hello Tim, There is 3 actions to do to repair your computer: 1) Use the repair option of Internet Explorer, you find it into your control panel, open program "Add & Remove programs", find line "internet explorer ans his tools", open it, 3 options, one is "repair", send the procedure and reboot your computer when finished. 2) Update your AdAware program, you need to have version 6.0 build 181 to be able to get update from Lavasoft. 3) Download program SpywareBlaster 2.61 in order to forbide cookies spams in your computer.... That should fix your problem :))))

dw226, Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Yes, I ran spybot as well and removed the items that it found. This did not correct the problem though.

Imp, In response to your post... 1) I don't have an "internet explorer and its tools" line under Add and Remove Programs. 2) My AdAware is up to date with the current reference file. 3) I've never used SpywareBlaster. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the advice.

Spywareblaster SpywareGuard [I don't leave home without them.] <smiles> You can take out HjT out of a temp folder, and put it in a permanent folder... You can get the Google toolbar... Nothing is showing up in that log. It may be something corrupted your browser; spyware damage.... what happens when you run a search from there... nothing? does it type there? "The Page Cannot be Displayed" error page?
