Please help me, I've got a Trojan.ByteVerify Virus on my system.
I have Norton Antivirus and it has located it, I've tried the steps they recommend to clean it and no luck.

It changes my homepage and adds porno links throughout my Internet Explorer

There seems to be a program loading at startup and I get a strange program end at shutdown.

I've also tried manually clearing all my internet caches and histories and cookies. I even manually cleared my Sun Java cache, no luck.

I've downloaded Hijackthis and used it to create a log file, here it is...

Logfile of HijackThis v1.97.7

I've tried Spybot, Adaware, CWshredder...I'm desperate.

Also, it's affected my wifes profile In internet explorer as well. How do I fix hers after mine so it doesn't launch again?

thanks for any help

First remove the source of vulnerability:
Update your Windows OS and IE to the SP1 versions at windowsupdates http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp
Byteverify is an exploit of a system that has not been security updated.

"I've tried Spybot, Adaware, CWshredder...I'm desperate."

Check that you have updated all these programs, specifically ALL three of them, and rescan with all three. There are new updates for all of them. Run the scans for each user profile on your system.

After all that, consider replacing the MS Java with the Sun java.

As a follow up only, post a new HjT log after the updates have been installed.

I had this same problem.

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\winlogon.exe is the culprit

I couldn't just delete it, and task manager wouldn't kill the process for some reason. I just renamed it to a non-executable file and rebooted.

Deleting this file then updating IE solved my problem. There's probably some registry cleanup to be done, but this will get it to stop bothering you.
Have a nice day.
