    Default can't run HJT to create log! (Inactive)

    I can't run HJT as per your posting instructions nor can I run spybot. I downloaded ERUNT but don't see a notepad log to post. I can't even run IE and getting Firefox up is difficult. I was not able to run any exe files so I created a new one and chose Application in the Advanced tab. This seemed to work to get a browser open but I still can't see spybotsd.exe anywhere nor is there an .scr file. My computer is seriously infected. Please help if you can!

    My name is Katana and I will be helping you to remove any infection(s) that you may have.

    Please observe these rules while we work:
    1. Please Read All Instructions Carefully
    2. If you don't understand something, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
    3. Please do not run any other tools or scans whilst I am helping you

    5. Please continue to respond until I give you the "All Clear"
      (Just because you can't see a problem doesn't mean it isn't there)

    If you can do those few things, everything should go smoothly

    Some of the logs I request will be quite large, You may need to split them over a couple of replies.
