Trojan/spyware help.

08 March 2008 - 11:18 PM

Hi I thought I'd ask for help here as most of you guys are vastly more computer literate than myself.

About a week ago picked up a trojan through msn its was picked up by adaware SE and removed.

Then over the last two days a window would pop-up with the following message: Error in C:Users"name"AppDataLocalTempsnmkxwdc.dll
Missing entry:run
followed by all the desktop icons, the start menu and the task bar disappearing.

I managed to get everything running again by restarting the PC in safe mode then doing a system restore/roll back but the error message keeps coming back with it wiping everything out again.

On the last roll back I deleted everything in the appdatalocaltemp folder then on the reboot a 'Locussoftcorp Installer' started asking for permission to install I stopped it installing but am now wondering if it was something that Ive delete that the PC needs or is this the spyware trying to reinstall?

Any advice guys would be great.
