help, i've been hijacked

[starside]

i have been hijacked by zond.directwebsearch.net.

This changes my home page in IE and puts poker / live sex icons on my desktop.

I have Adaware, Zone alarm Pro, PC-cillin, Peer Guardian and Hijack this. Still I cannot get rid of it. can anyone help?

Thanks

HijackThis can't get rid of it? Ouch. That'll teach ya to go looking at porn heheh. Ok. Sorry. Not helpful. Do you mean, you remove the Hijacked items in HijackThis and they keep coming back? If so, you probably have a program running that puts it there. Your virus scanner or ad-aware should've picked it up, but if not, press ctrl-alt-del and look for anything that looks suspicious, and delete from your HDD. Also looking in msconfig or services.msc and remove it from there. (shouldnt matter if you delete if from your HDD). If there are no items in hijackthis, to be honest, I ain't got a clue. Format Windows or use a different web browser, or even better use Linux.

Try running in safe mode and running the apps to remove the ofending items

we'll need a hijackthis log to tell you what to remove

also, you need cwshredder

and a new web browser
