Any idea what this is ~
C:\Program Files\VersalSoft\InternetDownload\VDTB.dll

very few people in the world seem to have it (Uninstall it if your happy to do so)

That's an activeX related download which allows me to go unto a terminal server (I think)

FIX these using hijack
O8 - Extra context menu item: &Winamp Search - C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Winamp Toolbar\ieToolbar\resources\en-US\local\search.html
O16 - DPF: !!7584C670-2274-4EFB-B00B-D6AABA6D3850} (Microsoft RDP Client Control (redist)) - https://mail.XXXXXX.com/Remote/msrdp.cab

All done cheers.

Download CCLEANER (Top right)
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/
Run the top 2 scans (Backup the registry when it asks)


Download GLARY UTILITIES (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD NOW')
http://www.download.com/Glary-Utilities/3000-2094_4-10508531.html
Run the ONE CLICK scan

Then do a combofix (Post the log after please)
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

All done, although when I tried to run combo it brought up a PARASITES FOUND message: "The following files were trying to attach to combofix. They shall be disabled. C/Program files/Logitech/LVMVFMLvprcinj.dll"

Combo doesnt seem to want to run either as it brings up a message saying windows cannot find the file 32788..../NIRCMD.com ...

go to the java console in control panel..there's an option in there somewhere to update...once done, go to add/remove programs in control panel and uninstall the older versions...

open spybot, Mode option, select advanced, tools...go to resident, and untick the tea-timer option

sometimes updates can enable/disable features without you realising

NIRCMD appears to be part of combofix.....best uninstall & delete combofix and download it again.....
