This is my gf's pc and HIJACKTHIS wont run.... It comes up with an error and wanted me to do something with run then save a file named Hosts and reboot..... Then once i closed the error it keep going like normal but then never generated a report..... Any other program I can use for her to see if her machine is infected? I am pretty sure that it is though....
