Download HIJACK THIS (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/
Click MAIN MENU then DO A SYSTEM SCAN AND SAVE A LOGFILE(Takes seconds) then post the log so we can see whats running
(do NOT do anything else with Hijack but scan and post the FULL log)
If you get a message that you cant write to the hosts file then Press the SHIFT key, and whilst holding it RIGHT CLICK and select RUN AS (admin):idea:0 -
Thank you so much.:)
This PC is my lifeline so It really stresses me out when things go wrong.
Especially as I am really careful always keep AV software up to date and do regularly run malwarebytes etc. But this one seems to have got through everything! :mad:"Things can only get better.................c/o D:Ream #The 90's"

Can you switch it off?
regardless, once the above entries have been removed, please reboot and run hijack again (Im intrigued to see what start up items have been blocked):idea:0 -

Its backing up your harddrive:idea:0

Thanks
Still none the wiser!?
The only thing like that I'm aware of I have is Maxtor Maxblast for an occasional backup to an external hard drive?
I can't see acronis on my PC?
Have fixed those things just about to reboot and scan again."Things can only get better.................c/o D:Ream #The 90's"
