I looked up the MyWaySA stuff and found that it was not harmful. It was that Dell stuff you were talking about earlier. But I removed it anyways.

I also ran the ewido, AdAware and HJT again and everything is gone.

Whew! What a long a frustrating day.

DC, thank you. And thank you Bunkley as well. :yay

Phreak,
The reason the myway stuff is still there is that it is a program that is installed via more traditional means than Spyware or Adware. You have to first go into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall it from there. Then you can do the HJT this clean up on the rest of it. Even though it came from Dell, I've read a bit about it, and I wouldn't want it on my machine.

The latest HJT logs look clean. Glad to hear everything is working well, and that your stream of scat and beastiality porn can begin anew.

Make sure you update all your scanning programs, and get that Windows Defender I was telling you about. Also update your Java and Flash pulgins. I also recommend completely unistalling Internet Explorer from you system. I would do this only when you are completely comfortable with Firefox. Even if you are not browsing with IE, bugs can still exploit it if it is on your system. Let me know if you want some info on how to take it off.

Yeah, a lot of things are planted in system folders that keep installing new stuff. Which is most likely why the stuff kept coming back. You had to remove the source if what was planting those things.

Looks like you got rid of it. I probably won't get the techies to look at your log until monday, but I'll post back what they say and see if there's anything else they spotted on there.

Make sure you have a firewall, spyware, and adware blocker, all up to date.

I went through each folder on the computer and found a bunch of shtein. I deleted all of it and then that DrWeb cleaned the rest of it off.


Everything is updated and running smooth.

Thanks again for all the help, y'all.

I prefer Milwaukee's Best for anyone concerned. Natty Light is acceptable in case there is a very common rush on The Beast at the local Piggly Wiggly.  ;)

Keep it Phreak, I was just messing around. Last night would have been boring as shtein with nothing to do - wife was working the night shift and I didn't make any plans. It gave me something to do.
