Hello,
Recently, while using my internet browser, several changes have occurred and I dont know what happened. For example, now when I sign on to my Aol instant messenger, it will then log me off after 10 secs, and the icon on the bottom right hand corner will disappear as soon as the mouse arrow goes over it. When I use search engines, particularly Yahoo's, sometimes when I press enter to start the search, an error message comes up saying "connection interrupted. The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again." And then when it finally does search, when I click on a link on the search to go to that website, it re-directs me to another site. The same thing happened to me with my desktop weather as it did with my instant messenger. I removed both applications and have re-installed instant messenger hoping that would work, but it didn't.
Ive run a virus scan as well as spybot, but they both come up clean.
Please let me know how to fix this.
Thank you very much
-Arnold

Start a new topic providing the HJT log. ;)

What happened with your brother's PC?

Hey,
Thank you, I will re-post now with my HJT log.
My brothers computer is still very much infected, but I don't know how to get around it, because his laptop won't let him install and run spybot. If he goes on any search engine, he can not do a search either as it will redirect him, and it takes him a good 2-3 minutes to do anything on it.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks as always,
-Arnold

Blade81 asked you to Download DDS and save it to your desktop, not run Spybot. :p:
