The keylogging message that started this off0
-
it was in the report and statistics section.view transaction protectionblocked access section. when i clicked on there there was one keylogging attempt from march i think from msnmessenger possibly and the other from a file that was happening vertually everytime i went on any website. theres the date and time next to it and u could see it was happening pretty much constantly. its not now though.0

"other from a file that was happening"
which file0 -
do u remember what those files were as im wondering if one was the one that was coming up on my norton and showed up in one of the scans. and thats why its gone when i check norton re the keylogging security bit i mentioned in my last postCombofix has deleted 2 files and I cant see any other signs of infection0 -
i "think" the below was it
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ctfmon.exe0 -
That file is part of windows (unless it has been overwritten), are you saying that the norton log that warned you of a keylogging attempt said that this file was responsible?0
-
yes. it gives the file and then says what the attempt is and the dateand time. pretty sure it was that0
-
i did download something onto my site claiming to be from windows which is what i think may have cause this so maybe it was overwritten if thats what it means0

Your posts are giving a bit of a mixed message, I think, and pretty sure, suggests you are guessing, have a look at the log again to be 100% sure.0
