    Please be advised that we do not analyze Hijack This log files any longer on this forum. I did quickly glance at your log file and seen a couple possible threats. I would advise you to uninstall SpyBot and leave it uninstalled. Download, install, update and scan with Malwarebytes. After you have scanned with Malwarebytes scan with both scanners below. After you have scanned with them you can right click and delete them. They do not install. However, to prevent Hitman Pro from installing you must choose the option to scan this one time. Let me know what anti-virus software you have installed also.

    HitmanPro 3.5

    Hi Joel     been a long time since the above post. can you help??

    I followed the above instructions and hijack said it couldn't provide a list.  It told me to run notepad C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\host and edit myself.   All there is in that file is an example how to configure ip addresses and hosts.  it's a little above my savy.  I am also unable to find anywhere to copy and paste here.  I have windows 7 home premium and have obtained the Win 7 Antivirus 2012.    Am unable to use my AVG to get rid of it.  Let me know your thoughts. Thanks and Happy New Year!
