Please could some check this Hijackthislog

DaveG247

Hi all,

Seem to be having a few problems with my dell laptop (windows vista) had a problem with some ww1.delta-search.com thing in chrome which I thought I've managed to get rid off but every time I open chrome it appears again, also the machine seems to be running slow when I click program short cuts and Firefox keeps non responding all the time. Ran malwarebytes but doesn't seem to bring anything up so thought i'd post a Hijackthislog and see if someone could help me out. Thanks Dave

How's it running after that?

DaveG247

Seem's to be alot better now, got rid of that direct search thing and Firefox now opens without any problems, thank you for your help, just out of interest is it worth me running AdwCleaner regularly?

waddler_8

Run it again and click the uninstall button. It's regularly updated so just re-download it should you ever have a need for it in the future.

DaveG247

ok will do, cheers

waddler_8

No problem.

DaveG247

Seems I've got this back again as well as start.search.us.com tried running through with AdwCleaner but no look any ideas please

• Run HijackThis
• Click Main Menu
• Click Do a system scan only
• Put a check beside the 2 items listed below:
  

  R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Page_URL = http://start.search.us.com/v/2/?guid={FEDE25BC-FF5A-4C34-AB67-ABE09BEB7D38}&serpv=5
  
  O20 - AppInit_DLLs: c:\progra~2\browse~1\261125~1.80\{c16c1~1\browse~1 .dll

• Close all open windows
• Click on the Fix Checked button
• Close HijackThis & REBOOT

After reboot, Post me a DDS log - should take 2-3 minutes.

Download DDS from the link below and save it to your desktop:

Link

After you've downloaded it and saved it to your desktop:

• Double click DDS to run it.
• When it's finished, DDS will open two logs:

1. DDS.txt
2. Attach.txt

Save both reports to your desktop.

Copy & paste the contents of just DDS.txt for now and post it here (you may need to split the log over separate posts)
