Since I've downloaded adaware as part of a trial pay package I've been experiencing problems. The scan showed that my computer had lots of infections, the worst one is detailed below as part of the summary. Since I've run adaware my home page keeps changing to msn too. Please help!

Hi cana
pls download and install 'Hijackthis' from TrendMicro's.
Run a scan and copy/paste the logfile in your next reply.
I'm going to move your post to the appropriate forum.
Have a nice day
Raziel




Hi Raziel
Many thanks for your speedy response. I'm not sure where I should be posting this (again!). Have pasted the logfile.
Kind regards,
Cana
