Hi Osiris (or other helpful God-like Avatar)

I am posting my Hijack this log - I came here originally as part of the process of trying to remove an AVG toolbar from my computer, but I am of course interested in removing any other harmful items that may be found.

The only line highlit in the original "Trend Micro HijakThis - v2.0.4" file was the
R0 -HKCU\ line. I am pasting the notepad entry, per instructions.

Thank you,

Hello. Just to inform you that I do see this topic. Sadly I worked from 6pm-6am last night, got home for a nap and am heading back into work right now. So it is not that I am neglecting your topic, but I have some previous commitments to attend to first. If Trotter wishes to respond with some advice that is fine, but I wont be able to take a real look at your log until roughly midnight EST tonight.

Thank you for your understanding.

Okay so first thing I would suggest would be to go into the Control Panel under Programs and remove any and all Toolbars. They are nothing but a breeding ground for infections now. They are not kept up to date anymore by the developers and can be exploited.

Other than the Toolbars, the log looks decent. I dont see anything in there other than those couple toolbars.

KSoD, thank-you for analysis, and apologies for howl long it took to get back to you. My daughter just graduated from college, and on top of work-load, I didn't have mental capacity to attend to computer housekeeping. I will try to remove the toolbars, per suggestion, and post my results here.
