I have a virus that my AVG or Adaware program can't get rid of and I can't download my norton antivirus as a result. It pops up with the name "Downloader.Purityscan" everytime. It seems to jump around to different locations but I can't ever find it to delete it. Any help would be greatly appreciated..........chuckdrum@hotmail.com

Go to start > controlpanel > add/remove programs and uninstall next if present:
Oin
Yazzle by Oin
YazzleActiveX By OIN
Yazzle anything
Purityscan by Oin
Snowballwars by Oin
Cowabanga by OIN
or anything similar with Oin in it
888 toolbar
anything with 888 in itIf OIN not listed, download and run this uninstaller OiUninstaller.exe
Reboot when done! Really important!
Please post a Hijack This log so that the files associated with the virus/spyware/hijacker can be identified.
Please download HJTsetup.exe from this link http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/files/HJTsetup.exe 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.Do not fix anything yet unless you know what you are doing. This is a powerful tool that can crash the computer if used improperly.

I don't see a antivirus running, looks like you had Norton's at one time.
If you do not have an antivirus you can download a free one from this link AVG Free Antivirus
Please download ATF-Cleaner to your desktop from this link
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/19/2/ We will need it later in safe modePlease update AVG Anti- Spyware
Next, please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :
Restart your computer
After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
Choose your usual account.
Run Hijack This from safe mode, close all windows except Hijack This, place a check to the left of the following items and press "fix checked":
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = \blank.htm

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {C1B4DEC2-2623-438e-9CA2-C9043AB28508} - (no file)
Exit Hijack This but remain in safe mode.
Run ATF-Cleaner from safe mode.Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.Empty the restore folder. Go to start>control panel>system>system restore tab>check the box beside "turn off system restore>apply (takes a minute)>ok. Go back and uncheck the box to turn system restore back on>apply>ok.
In Safe Mode, run AVG Anti-spyware and click on the Scanner tab at the top. Click the "Settings" tab and then change the recommended action to Quarantine and click Automatically generate report after every scan. Click back to the "Scan" tab and then click on Complete System Scan. This scan can take quite a while to run, so be prepared.
AVG Anti-Spyware will list any infections found on the left hand side. When the scan has finished, it will automatically set the recommended action. Click the Apply all actions button. AVG Anti-Spyware will display "All actions have been applied" on the right hand side.
Click on "Save Report", then "Save Report As". This will create a text file. Make sure you know where to find this file again (like on the Desktop). Post the AVG AntiSpyware log please.

I followed your instructions. But when I went to turn system restore back on it wouldn't let me. Said I couldn't while in safe mode. I was also unable to see the full screen on avg while in safe mode and was unable to save the log file. Should I attempt the whole procedure again?

It's running ok I guess. I don't have any spyware or viruses that show up. Although I do have the same issues show up on my ccleaner everytime. And I still can't delete my old Norton antivirus from my add/remove programs and I can't download my new one. It starts downloading but just stops completely after about half way through. These are the issues that pop up everytime I run my ccleaner.

That looks similar to some spyware but may not be. There is an uninstall tool for nortons at this link Norton Uninstall Tool but post the two logs before you run it.
Please post a new hijack this log and download ComboFix to the desktop from this link:
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe
Double-click combofix.exe
Follow the prompts.
(Don't click on the window while the program is running, it may cause your system to hang.)Please post the log it produces.

I ran the norton removal tool and it went through the motions and all. But it was still in my "add/remove" programs and I still couldn't remove it and still can't download it. But I'm not showing any issues in my ccleaner anymore. So, the computers running pretty good but I think somethings still wrong because of the norton issues. And I know I haven't said it yet but I really appreciate all your time and help.

Untill you get the nortons issued solved you need an antivirus so make sure AVG or something is running and updated, Norton's is known to use a lot of resources slowing the computer down but is a good av.
If you ran the uninstaller before you ran combofix run it again after doing the following.
Combofix killed the virus, navigate to and delete this folder:
C:\qoobox
then go through the clean up procedure again as it is probably in the restore folder. Then run AVG AntiSpyware and post the report.
Run combofix again and post the log as per the earlier request that didn't save for you.
Run the Nortons uninstaller again.
Please download SmitFraudFix from this link http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/Smitfra... Then extract the contents to your desktop.
!!!! Only run option #1 as runing the other options on an uninfected computer will damage the desktop.!!!!
Open the "SmitfraudFix" folder and double-click "smitfraudfix.cmd"
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.
Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.
