Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information. "BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

Kind of like saying all patients problems must be exactly the same, so I will just cut out this and that and see what happens...lol. Now you ask me to rush to surgery and see if I can save the patient.
Often you create problems as a result and I have no idea If I can fix those problems. If you will take the time to read and follow the directions I posted, and then do this:

1) Read this: http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_10\ <<< update your Java program and uninstall all old versions in Add Remove Program. I suggest you check the scheduler also, it is not working?

2) Open Hijackthis.
Click the "Open the Misc Tools" section Button.
Click the "Open Uninstall Manager" Button.
Click the "Save list..." Button.
Save it to your desktop. Copy and paste the contents into your reply.

3) Describe exactly what is happening, like if you have popups, say "I have popups and they direct me to here" Post any error messages you receive "word for word"

4) Follow the directions in this link to run AVG Anti-Spyware, make sure you delete or quarantine anything it finds and save the scan report to post.
http://forums.security-central.us/showthread.php?t=3165

Post the scan report results, the uninstall list any information I requested and a new HJT log and I will see what I can do.

Thanks
