dolio...

Given such a massive infection, it will be hard to walk you
through a cure in a step-by-step fashion and insure success,
especially for the price you're offering.

Fortunately, I recently found a webpage put together by
Eric L. Howes that is the most comprehensive discussion
I've seen, and reproduces about every piece of advice
I would tend to give you if I typed it all out myself:
http://spywarewarrior.com/sww-help.htm

It will take some focused attention on your part to wade
through this page and follow the instructions therein,
but that's how it would work if I walked you through it.

I recommend you work through this page and post back here
with any questions or progress reports you need help with.

If you want to post your Hijack This log here, I can make
recommendations on that, but all the other steps which are
suggested on this page are important, as well.

Let me know where this takes you...

Microsoft® Windows AntiSpyware works great.

If you want to go through all of the grueling steps to manually remove
the infections from the file system, registry, and everywhere else, I
wish you luck.  If you want a serious, inexpensive tool that truly
works (as opposed to Norton), I have one suggestion:

Spysweeper

Buy it. Use it. Thank it.
