Dear Shak:
It's amazing what an HJT log can reveal! You can always delete
'about:blank' by exposing your hidden/system files and then looking for
it on your c:\ root directory and then in your ..\system32
folder(winXP). That, however, will do you no good. Basically, your
browser as well as your OS have been infected with spyware. Your ports
have been usurped! You should never allow unknown third party BHO's
especially search bars to exploit your internet browser. What you'll
have to do now is reinstall your operating system; because, more than
likely, your local restore points have been corrupted. One thing you
might try, however, is downloading, updating, and then running 'Spybot
Search & Destroy' if you can still access the net for a user opted
download, though, not likely. Make sure you use your computer's OEM
disk if you decide to reinstall. Also, I don't see any legitamate
virus/malware protection, what happened?! Garth
