Thanks for posting a new HJT log, it looks better but this item was scheduled for removal and is still there:
O2 - BHO: FrontierBA BHO - {A93A3CC1-BA23-4d0d-9440-6A0148362B7E} - C:\Program Files\FrontierBA\BrowserAssistant\fbabar.dll
http://www.castlecops.com/tk31167-fbabar_dll.html

CastleCops and myself consider this item questionable and optional. If you can not or do not wish to remove stuff according to my instructions, it is your computer but please make me aware so I will know it is not being missed...thanks.

Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 Scan saved at 7:30:55 AM, on 2/27/2007

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O2 - BHO: FrontierBA BHO - {A93A3CC1-BA23-4d0d-9440-6A0148362B7E} - C:\Program Files\FrontierBA\BrowserAssistant\fbabar.dll
O3 - Toolbar: &Frontier Browser Assistant - {A93A3CC9-BA23-4d0d-9440-6A0148362B7E} - C:\Program Files\FrontierBA\BrowserAssistant\fbabar.dll

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Besides that, this HJT log appears to be clean of malware, let me know how the computer is running.

Thanks

okay,
this time it seemed to get rid of them.

I wanted to ask you a question though. Spybot, last time i ran a scan, found that smitfraud-c.toolbar888 file that seemed never to go away. im running a scan right now to see if its still there.

Meanwhile, the menu that kept popping up about the internet being temporarily unavailable has stopped. it used to be that about every twenty seconds something kept trying to acces the internet and every time it tried (this is when i unplugged the cable in my modem) it kept asking me if i wanted to try again or work offline, and now its finally stopped.

Thanks much for that

also, should the popups for winantivirus stop now too (along with the other ads)?

(mind you, i JUST plugged my internet cable back in)

and for my last question; was the MSSMGR registry value taken care of during all of this? or will it pose future problems (i assume this a redundant question; please dont think i underestimate your ability. You're a god to me)

Oh, my spybot scan finished...

it still has that Smitfraud'-C.Toolbar888 and a Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter_disabled listing
heres the log:

also i looked up the MSSMGR value using the regedit and the MSSMGR value is still there. I know its loosely associated with the smitfraud thing. I didnt delete or change anything in the registry.

other than my questions, things seem okay.

Is your version of Spybot up to date? I understand this was a false positive from a while back:

That should have cleaned up with the newest data base. I will also look at the rest of your questions, but I would prefer you post questions about Spybot here: http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=4

Let's do a check with Smitfraudfix to make sure nothing is lingering. I will also post closing information for your benefit. Please review it and post in 24 to 48 hours, giving you time to make sure all issues are resolved, and let us know.
