Right, CWShredder told me my system was clear except for c:/windows/TSUNINST.exe, but I left it, and i can delete it later if it is nasty. This is the log from Hijack:

You might also want to get rid of this.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LoadQM] loadqm.exe

If you do a search for it on the net you will see it is a litle jewel in windows that seems to have no real apparent value or use. Daniel

Well guys, I've done all that you've said, and the toolbar is no longer there! Hurrah! Knowing my luck, it will come back with a vengeance and haunt me for the rest of my life!

I did hear the MSN plus is responsible for the toolbar, so I am no longer using that. If I did start using MSN plus, would the toolbar come back?

Its not msn. Have a look at the post I just put in SECURITY and see if you have done what Ive suggested there. Way to go on your repair work. Download and install SpywareGuard now. Good Luck. Daniel

I've used Adaware and Spybot, but the mysearchnow toolbar keeps coming back.

Can anyone tell me what I need to delete?
thanks

I'm sure brad will be in soon to cast his expert eye over your log, but in future your post will get noticed more if you start a new one, rather than tagging it onto a previous one

Already did this in WinXp Forum.
