Thanks to everyone for their suggestions and or comments. The
"Band-Aid" I am using now is Zone Alarm. Norton's AV had been
compromised so I un-installed and then re-installed it. Between ZA,
Nortons, Spy Sweeper, and HiJackthis I have had no more alerts that
files were trying to register themselves on start up and can find no
more spyware or trojans. But what I have found are a couple of files
in my \system32 directory that look suspect. I have "googled" them
and can not find any information about them. I tried deleting them
but can not. Does anyone know if the following files are legit?
C:\WINDOWS\system32\dksshlex.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sumsg.dll
Also, how does one go about deleting files that Windows will not allow
you to delete? And is there a way to force a "process" to stop? I
understand I could force a crash if I stop the wrong process but would
like to be able to stop cetain things from running.
Lastly, does anyone know how to run Norton's AV in safe mode? Though
it says to scan for your system when in safe mode when you suspect
troubles, it won't run. GG Symantec! LOL!
Thanks!
Mike
