Hi Wildcherrys,

Welcome to PCHF. We have a great group of techs here, and I feel certain that we can get your Java back up and running.

First of all, it is really really important that you never post your entire Belarc log in a forum, that gives out all of your personal IP account information, and could be very dangerous. Please just post the hilights.

OK, As all three of your PCs are having the exact same situation, you either have the same infection on all of them, or all three need to be updated in the same way.

Have you made sure that all of your Windows Updates are done?

Can you please follow the instructions for PreWork in my signature on all three of the PCs, I want to look at the info side by side, so I will ask that you post back the logs as follows; HijackThis log PC1, HijackThis log PC2, HijackThis log PC3,
ewido log PC1, ewido log PC2, ewido log PC3. That way we can see if they all have the same errors.

Looking forward to your reply,

TTFN

LGW

ok gotcha.... i guess im too trusting lol. ill do that as soon as i can all three to myself.. or my kids go to bed lol... thanx ill post it when im done

I know how that is. I don't know how long it would take me to get all of the computers free at one time.

BTW, would they have all been communicating a lot? Or do all of them pretty much get used by everyone?

Just curious,

Looking forward to your reply,

TTFN

ok i think that ewido place uses JAVA cuz i cant use it. all i see is a red x in the upper right hand corner. and yes i pressed cntrl when i clicked on it again so its not being stopped by anything. here are the hijackthis files though.
this is from my dell laptop " hijackthis PC1 "
i will do each one seperately cuz its too long and it wont input.

OK Wildcherrys,

Thanks for that. Boy that is wierd about ewido tho, could you give it a try with Spy Sweeper, it is in my signature.

I will not have time to look at these tonight, I have to go, but I will get to them as soon as possible, and see what' s going on.

BTW, please make sure to post all logs as attachments, using the icon on your toolbar. Especially HJT logs, if you are infected, someone else could get it from clicking on the wrong thing.

Post back the Spy Sweeper scan logs, if you can get that program to work, I'm beginning to be very suspicious of malware.

TTFN

LGW
