577975 2007-08-08 06:04:00 Thanks speedy. I installed the trojan remover and it did find stuff that AVG and ADAWARE didn't find. One of them was that need2find thing. Should I still try and do all the stuff in your previous post or will this have fixed it?

Good! Umm, yup tick the other entries I posted previously too. Theyre just taking up memory running on startup. And can be run manually.

Especially this entry

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SemanticInsight] C:\Program Files\RXToolBar\Semantic Insight\SemanticInsight.exe

If trojan remover didnt remove the entries for it.

Get Rogueremover in my sig too, update it then click on scan. See if that picks up anything.

Thanks heaps for your help speedy. I've done the rogueremover which didn't find anything thank goodness. I also ticked and removed the "things" you advised. Scarily enough, even after running all those other "things" when I ran Hijackthis to "fix" the entries you advised, they were still there. Hopefully now all good. Thank you so much for your time and advice.

Just one last thing Speedy. What's with the Uninstall ALL versions of Sun Java?

The version u have is old, and should be uninstalled using add/remove programs.

And if there are any other versions PRIOR to 1.6.0 in add/remove programs, these should be uninstalled too.

Then install the latest version of Sun Java, which is in my sig.

577983 2007-08-08 11:45:00 Okay - done that. BUT guess what I found in programs? Need2findbar!!! When I click to remove I get:
Error Loading C:\PROGRA~1\NEED2F~\bar\1.bin\Nd2fnBar.dll
The specified module could not be found

What the ??? is all this?
