When you are using HijackThis
to fight spyware infections, you should get all the information you can
get about the log file it displays. The "I am not a geek" website has
provided us with a log file analyzer which will help you figure out which
entries are good and which ones are bad. Once at the website you are given
a large text entry window in which you paste a copy of your HijackThis
log. After you click "Submit" the website presents you with the same log
file but now has links in it that show different colors. Red is not good.
When you hover over the links it gives you a description of the analysis
for the entry. Clicking the links will take you into an
internet search for the information in the link. It might be a good
idea to get second opinions from two other online HijackThis analyzers at
Help2Go
and hijackthis.de.
It's always best to get expert advice on using HijackThis. If you
need help, I recommend the freely given expert help at Temerc Internet Countermeasures.
Website - Tip and Cool Website
Quote from the website - This system has been
designed to help you quickly find information about everything contained
in your HJT logs. We tap the greatest information databases we've been
able to find to help you figure out which items in your log are OK and
which ones are bad! Every item we have in one of the databases will be
linked to a page where you can get more information. Items that are in
categories that are either bad or questionable will also be linked but
will have bolded text with a red highlight to "red flag" them..
