    Hey Amit,

    First of all, I assume no responsibility if anything goes wrong by doing this, just to make sure i'm on the right side of legal issues. Secondly, I would suggest you wait for opinions from other members who may correct me or add other entries to be deleted. Lastly, make sure you make a backup when you do this. And yes, you will have to re-install google toolbar.

    Get rid of these for sure:

    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://bwllggbufhcet.org/x7V0S7RmC_..._Ud5ChKBVM2.cgi
    O2 - BHO: Google Toolbar Helper - {AA58ED58-01DD-4d91-8333-CF10577473F7} - c:\program files\google\googletoolbar1.dll (file missing)




    I'm not sure of this one. Never heard of this file and looks like adware. It's sister is Bpboh.dll and is an adware.

    O2 - BHO: CookieHlprObj Class - !!4DF1DB24-A57C-11d3-A180-00A0C90AE44B} - C:\PROGRA~1\BPSPOP~1\BPSBHO.dll



    Would like a second opinion on these:


    R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Int ernet Settings,ProxyServer = http=BPSPopupCookieShield:8100
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Help atom bleh new] C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\lies bind help atom\Plus Site.exe


    Cheers

    Its alright. I've got nothing to do with that software or website. Just trying to refer someone to a better piece of adfree work. Nevertheless, rules are rules and I shall stand by them.

    Cheers

    Amit,

    I think you'd be better off posting this at http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ where you will be guided by much advanced techies than me. I've used hijackthis many times and practically scan my laptops everyday. Also, I think you are using far to many protection softwares. I think you should stick to something like panda. You are wasting your resources by installing all of them. With time, you will get used to using hijack this i guess.

    Cheers
