Do you use Spybot 1.2 and AdAware 6, build 181? One of these two will likely remove your trojan.

Google for these if you don't have them. Spybot takes a bit of learning. Set it in its advanced mode via Start>Programs>Spybot>Advanced Mode.

Doesn't Hijack This have a site to submit their files, then they contact you?
 
Try the WINNT kill.exe app to close the offensive process, then use admin privliages to remove the program from your machine.

Good Luck,



Steve.
 
i have both Spybot S&D and Ad-Aware, both like to tell me they fixed my system, while actually they havent helped one bit
 
I had a similar experience last week, and neither program helped. After killing the app, and running Zone Alarm to prevent it from contacting the net, the browser went into a continuous loop. Out of desperation, I just reinstalled the OS.

When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.
 
There's a program you can download called cwshredder. It may help you with this one.
You can also google on
royalsearch trojan
and see posts in other forums that may give you additional ideas.
 
Magik,

Might also want to verify you have the latest referrence file running for ad-aware (01R232 20.11.2003).
 
I seen to have a similar problem as Magik has but am told to submit my log to experts to have them analyze it and advise me what is good and what is ok to eliminate. I am doing that now to all you great people. Thanks
