Does that make sense? Wouldn't that be like buying a house that you built yourself?

it only takes a hard drive format to fix your problem...just do it and reinstall as much as possible..its the best way really

If it's any consolation, modern operating systems make it virtually impossible to write a trojan. In several decades - after the microsoft era is over - we should all be running them.

download Lavasoft's Ad-aware 6.0 and let that program do its thing, it's a real gem. Also investing in some VirusScan/Firewall programs might not be a bad idea.

dont use the system restore! unless u know when that virus came into ur comp don't use it, infact u should deleet all previous system restores. viruses can stay dormant for a long time w/o u knowing and everytime system restore makes a checkpoint it could b unknowingly backing up that virus. and everytime u restore back to a point where that virus was dormant, it will still b there.

NO not that system restore trick. I disabled system restore like the google searches recommended. It makes no difference; the goddamn thing keeps on coming back. Excuse my language; I am just really pissed with this sucker

geez just trying to help. If you know where the virus is on your computer, with a little luck you can delete it manually, or at least quarantine it.
:oops: Sorry MadChedar0, I am just in a bad mood. :x
The Trojan keeps coming back and the Hijack This forum is taking forever.

Odd that ad aware didn't take it out. Try the Pro Version and the Virus Definitions.
I think I got rid of it. It was dwelling in Windows Media Player.
