My Pc suddenly became really slow. I have Norton 2003 but it didn't detect anything when i did a scan. I scanned online from Mcafee and it found Exploit-ByteVerify. On Symantec's Website, it says restart in Safe Mode, run a scan and delete but it doesn't find anything after a scan. I tried scanning online on Mcafee again and it still says that there is the Trojan. I checked on google, got some instructions on deleting the entries in the registry but i couldn't find any. It also opens some porn pop ups once in a while. ANY HELP WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. Thanks sam

Read Me Please read that post. If you still have problems after running Spybot or Ad-Aware then post a log file but only in the Security/Virus Forum. KTTD

Just to note: The site to obtain HiJackThis is down at the moment. KTTD

Sam Check your mail... I just zipped HJ and sent it over HTH Alan56

Merijn has a new site, and addresses for his stuff have changed. Here are the most common files accessed on his site. http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis.zip http://www.merijn.org/files/cwshredder.zip http://www.merijn.org/cwschronicles.html http://www.merijn.org/htlogtutorial.html

Abnormal, Thanks for the post but the main page is still in the works but your links do work. KTTD
