OK, here are the latest logs form AdAware and Ewido. Spybot found no immediate threts. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks.

Hmm , the Ewido log shows something very interesting. There is/was some malware on youre pc pretending to be "Adobe Gamma Loader.exe". And i dont know if Ewido removed all of it already .

Since you obviously also have legit Adobe software installed , and there is infact an legit Adobe file with the same name aswell , we need to check wich is wich first.

Can you post a new hjt log to see what is stil present?

Yes, I have noticed that too. In the meantime Spy Sweeper Startup Program Shield gave me an alert regarding this and prompted to eliminate it from the startup programs. I agreed and as a result haven's noticed anything unusual since.

"_delete_on_reboot_Adobe Gamma Loader.exe" is now shown in Spy Sweeper startup program list as unchecked. There is also another one - Adobe Gamma Loader.ink, but this one is still active. How can I permanently delete the frst file this from my computer (assuming the second one is legit)?

Here is the latest HJT log.

It isn't showing up in the hjt log anymore , so to get rid of it completly first eneble it again in spysweeper. Then fix this line with hjt in safemode (hit f8 when booting up):

O4 - Startup: Adobe Gamma Loader.exe

And manually delete the file from these two places if present:

C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup




And then to double check , upload this file:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Calibration\Adobe Gamma Loader.exe

to this site to check:

http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html

And report back if it finds anything please.

So far so good. I also checked the file over at virustotal.com and they didn't find anything bad either.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.

Sounds great. The little ****** had us fooled for a bit but it seems like we got it.

Marked as Fixed for the second time.
