    Yes infection has borked permissions, we will fix it a bit later.

    Please now rerun win32kdiag.exe in normal way and post back its log

    Good, that one is clean.

    Please reinstall HijackThis and let me know if it runs now.

    Default no luck with that instruction

    I tried downloading several times, deleting the old copies, but each time I get this:

    "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the file."

    Does that happen also with some other program?

    Default Not sure

    Do you mean other spyware programs? Well, I didn't do exhaustive testing in response to your question, but I did redownload Sypot Search and Destroy and it made it through a full scan (Check for Problems), identified one tracking cookie, which I successfully removed.

    However, that may not answer why I am having trouble with Hijack this. I will try one more time to download and run it in a moment. I'd like to be sure that whatever trojan infiltrated my system is gone permanently.

    Thanks for all your time and effort. Your picture reminds me of Gandalf.

    Default other programs seem to be working fine

    I reread the instructions for downloading Hijack this - didn't realize I need to also download the installer separately...here is the log:

    Good

    Please go to Kaspersky website and perform an online antivirus scan.

    1. Read through the requirements and privacy statement and click on Accept button.
    2. It will start downloading and installing the scanner and virus definitions. You will be prompted to install an application from Kaspersky. Click Run.
    3. When the downloads have finished, click on Settings.
    4. Make sure these boxes are checked (ticked). If they are not, please tick them and click on the Save button:
      • Spyware, Adware, Dialers, and other potentially dangerous programs
        Archives
    5. Click on My Computer under Scan.
    6. Once the scan is complete, it will display the results. Click on View Scan Report.
    7. You will see a list of infected items there. Click on Save Report As....
    8. Save this report to a convenient place. Change the Files of type to Text file (.txt) before clicking on the Save button.
    9. Please post this log in your next reply along with a fresh HijackThis log.
