Then download update and run FULL scans with Malwarebytes and Superantispyware
You also have some file running related to some bittorrent program? ~
C:\Users\LISSY\Program Files\DNA\btdna.exe
Id guess thats not good either. Maybe you could shed some light on it?:idea:0 -
have done all you suggested but still not able to install - would it harm it if i tried the 64 bit removal tool ?
dont know what the bittorrent thingy is - its my DD laptop and she runs msn mainly on here0 -
Try it by all means (Though if the 32 bit DID work, i doubt the 64 bit will)
If still no good you could try to install in safe mode:idea:0 -
tried safe mode but no luck (it wouldn't allow me to install)0

Does it say a reason why?
Id say FIX these as they look dodgy as hell to me ~
C:\Users\LISSY\Program Files\DNA\btdna.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [BitTorrent DNA] "C:\Users\LISSY\Program Files\DNA\btdna.exe"
reboot and run a fresh hijack log (And try and install again):idea:0 -
