• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

Help in removing Look2Me

My roommate has been infected with Look2Me and i can't figure out how to remove it. I rebooted in safe-mode, and scanned with spybot, ad-aware, but nothing could be removed. Here are some of the pop-ups that show up...zestyfind.com, drivecleaner.com, yourtruths.com, ameana.com, newsalone.com. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Btw, spybot and ad-aware are both up to date. Tried using the symantec look2me fixer, but it didnt work, in fact, it didnt locate it. Thanks again!
 
Hello warpedmind05,

Welcome to Safer Networking Forums :)

* Click here to download HJTsetup.exe
  • Save HJTsetup.exe to your desktop.
  • Doubleclick on the HJTsetup.exe icon on your desktop.
  • By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Hijack This.
  • Continue to click Next in the setup dialogue boxes until you get to the Select Addition Tasks dialogue.
  • Put a check by Create a desktop icon then click Next again.
  • Continue to follow the rest of the prompts from there.
  • At the final dialogue box click Finish and it will launch Hijack This.
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
  • Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" to copy the entire contents of the log.
  • Come back here to this thread and Paste the log in your next reply.
  • DO NOT have Hijack This fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Thanks,
tea
