Right mouse and select scan with trojan remover.

Scan the whole hdd.

Whatever it picks up, tell TR to delete it.

623798 2007-12-24 22:44:00 You may also have whats called Rootkits - these are hidden files that some antispyware programs wont locate. Nod32, when set will locate these.

If you haven't already done so dump that useless AVG - download Nod32, once you do it, open Nod, down the bottom left hand corner is the words - "Display Standard mode" - Click that and select Toggle Advanced mode. On the left click "Computer Scan" Inthe middle of the new box, click "Custom Scan", select the memory, + all your drives. Down the bottom of that window is a button called "setup" click that - under "Ojects & Options, tick every thing, under Cleaning move the slider to the very right. Extensions and Other you can leave as is. Run a full scan.

You can also down load Hidden Folder (www.wenpoint.com) - it is free and install / run it, it will show any hidden files, some of which may be your "bugs" you can right click on any result and google it, delete it what ever to find out what it does /is. You can also download Sophos Antirootkit (www.sophos.com) this is a direct link, other wise you will have to sign up Here and download (www.sophos.com) But it is free, this really digs DEEP in your system - will take a while to run, but be careful - ask here what to remove, as I found several "hidden" items on one of my systems that are actually used by IE and Safari Web Browsers.

NOTE: I have been doing a bit of research on this problem - it appears that there are reports that files may be called something else and these are whats recreating the infections. Some create random names, and are hidden.

623800 2007-12-25 02:49:00 And is System restore still disabled? It will have to be disabled so they dont come back. Speedy Gonzales (78)
623801 2007-12-25 03:29:00 prevxcsi will only i.d the stuff. Nod32 combined with a first scan using trojanremover. Will see it cleaned up

Use prevxcsi to confirm afterwards that its gone also you reall should be disconnected from the net while you are doing the scans just so you dont get reinfected.

I suggest you uninstall all you protection programs as well as Teatimer and then we go for removing it from the reg files.Its one of thes that is stopping the fix.
