Hijackthis

 

Hijackthis is a wonderful tool which interrogates your PC and shows you everything that has been told to automatically start when you start up your workstation or open internet explorer etc. It is great because we can see where the Malware has installed itself an also offers a great opportunity to maximize the performance of your PC by removing unwanted startup items.

 

To analyze your computer, start HijackThis and run a scan. HijackThis will display a list of areas on your computer that might have been changed by Spyware. Do not change any settings if you are unsure of what to do.

 

From here, you can save out a log and email it to someone whom you thinks can help you remove the Malware.

You can also send it to helpme@mickyj.com and I can take a look at it.

 

If you know what you are doing, or have been instructed to do so, you can then select items to remove and let Hijackthis cleanup your windows startup.

 

The tool will run on


  • Microsoft™ Windows™ Vista
  • Microsoft™ Windows™ XP
  • Microsoft™ Windows™ 2000
  • Microsoft™ Windows™ Me
  • Microsoft™ Windows™ 98

     


    It will detect plug ins for:

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or 7.0
  • Mozilla™ Firefox™ 1.5 or 2.0

    IMPORTANT: HijackThis does not determine what is good or bad. Do not make any changes to your computer settings unless you are an expert computer user or are following advice.

     

    NOTE: If you double click the Hijackthis icon and it does not start, even if after waiting considerable time, then it is likely a Virus or Malware is preventing it from working. You need to seek a professional for assistance.
