Sari, Thanks for the input but.......I do not seem to be able to find the Smitfraud Fix folder you speak of. Just went to search to look for it, but computer said it wasn't there. Am I missing something. Thanks. Eleart

Must admit I do need some help. Had family in for funeral and some were using my laptop. Think my nephew may have been rather liberal in his use. Computer goes to About/Blank when try to log on to internet and many spyware ads appear, on and on. Below are my startup list report and HijackThis log as instructed to supply. I will keep my laptop shut down but will check my e-mail on PC's. I will need rather specific instructions because I am not real software savvy. Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
