We have one Dell workstation that is over a year old and has a problem with pop-ups for a while now. A while back I managed to stop them temporarily by removing miscellaneous programs (except Weatherbug), but now they are back with a vengeance. I removed any software or programs that looked frivolous to her system. (Including WeatherBug) and AOL toolbar (She does continue to use AIM). But still more popups.
I am now pretty sure her browser is hijacked. It doesn’t change her home page or take her to any unwanted sites, but the popups are not linked to any clear separate process. They appear to link most often to iexplore.exe or explore.exe
Sometimes even taskmanager! They only appear when she is online, but they come from her computer, not the websites. (thereby getting past IE’s popup blocker) I did see “Inqwire” as the title of a few of the popups and searched that. But after downloading and running HijackThis I did not see any of the things that they say to remove if you get hijacked by Inqwire.
So…below is the HijackThis log. I cannot see any apparent problems. Can anyone else spot what is amiss? thanks for any help! Tink
