It might be easier to start over again rather than keep going around in circles if none of the tools you are using is detecting anything.

Foxy . . . . .

Look at the HJT header and see that this is only running SP-1 .

I recommend that SP-2 get installed ASAP after a total burn-down and opsys install

462092 2006-06-13 05:51:00 Yes, Joe, but that doesn't automatically mean that a PC is going to be riddled with that sort of stuff that quick . I have seen several PCs with neither SP2 nor SP1 or just SP1 on them running quite happily for ages with no problems whatsoever .

Not saying it is a good idea to, and I am surprised they didn't get the Blaster worm, but it is possible .

Have to agree. SP2? :yuck: Never seen the need for it - my SP1 runs like a dream. All it needs is a proper firewall and a decent enough anti-virus. I've only needed to apply a patch once because of the dumbass WMA exploit.
