This is the first time I have used this forum and need help getting started.

My son recently played an online skateboard game and I have since had lots of problems. I'm getting lots of pop-ups and re-directs. My system is just crawling along. Running Spy-Bot it finds Smitfraud toolbar 888, but it shows up after each run. I noticed that it found Vundo on one scan - only have seen once, but I continue to get Winfixer pop-ups which I think are associated, from what I gather reading message boards. Don't know how to run hijack log.

This is where I'm at and would greatly appreciate help from someone.

Thanks,
Steve

Use "Post Reply" to post the information in the instructions and stay in the same topic.
Instructions for posting the HJT log are in that link, make sure you follow all directions, anything less will slow the cleanup.
