OK I ran everything again and did get a result but I may have blown it. The malware found nothing but a few cookies (5) the ESET scan found 3 trojans. Apparently it removed 1 and reported an error in deleting the other 2. In trying to copy and paste I inadvertantly lost the information. However they all related to something called Recyclers C:/Windows/RECYCLERS ???

I ran the same scan again and nothing came up. I have restarted but do see any change.

Regarding Randy's Question I have no idea why there is a proxy over ride or even what it does.

Also I had a to do list when I re-formatted etc. After reinstalling my broadband service I updated windows and probably installed IE7 at that time. The disc must have had IE6.

I just get the feeling that whatever happened happened then or when I was downloading thie #$%& AVG>

As for leeching I tried looking for unaccounted for network activity while I was doing nothing and all I could find was a minimal amount of activity on the little icon. I opened the network connection status, the task manager and noticed that it was very minimal. I opened the connection to my router (through IE7 I guess) and noticed that each time there waas a little activity the page refreshed.

I really want to get rid of AVG what I do not know is whether I should keep it running while I either redownload Avast or get Avira. Or should I just wait until this is all sorted?
