I have been having problems with popups and unwelcome re-directs. I also had the folder with C:\Program Files\Common\_helper.dll open when I started windows. I am running XP SP3.

Before logging on to this forum I ran spybot and autoruns. I did all of the clean ups that they recommended and I used autoruns to delete the "_helper.dll" registry settings - and then I did a hard delete of the entire folder. I googled everything for information before I took action on it to determine what it was and whether or not it was malware.

There is at least one more file on my HJT log that I am concerned about and there may be more that I don't recognize:

"O18 - Filter hijack: text/html - {2f67fa84-bcce-4dd0-8c87-d4686d1e7ab3} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\msziptools.dll"

I haven't used the "fix checked" action from the HJT interface yet.

Here is the file in its entirety.
