Trojan alert

[Mikeus Caesar]

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Steam] "c:\program files\steam\steam.exe" -silent

Unknown and suspect task.

Silly pleb, steam is the client distributed by VALVe. Anyone who owns Half Life 2, or any other related games has this.

Have you been living in a cave devoid of mainstream gaming for the last 3 years?

Meh go to www.castlecops.com post your hijackthis log there. I gave that a quickr ead and theres a few problems you might want adresssing.

ok now a few tools from me.

go to here http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

and download avg anti spyware free. tis good at getting rid of trojans.

Another good tool is http://www.superantispyware.com/ and downlaod the freee version.

Final thing if your not going to pay is a program callled prevx1. Probably THE single bast anti malware product around. Its a bit funny on some systems though.

http://www.prevx.com/

He uses spyware docter so the first oen could be realted to that. The second also looks like ti could be realted to a HP comptuer if he uses one of those. As I said hes best lettting castle cops have a looka s no offence but many of you guys are jsut looking and guesssing and if he deletes any entrys he could seriously trash his registery.

The HPBRO... is from the HP Toolbox I use. Second, the PC Tools stuff is from Spyware Doctor, which I took it off, because it's a total rip off.

I used Ewido(good one, it's AVG Anti Spyware now, it works perfect) and I found some Adware with medium risk. Took it off, and it works a bit stable now. My PC is back to normal. Hopefully...
