and you said you can't shake winfixer you should visit a HijackThis Expert forum. (NOT here please). HJT is a very powerful tool and only advanced users should use it.
Please post your HJT logs in one of the following HJT forums:
- http://castlecops.com/f67-Hijackthis_Spyware_Viruses_Worms_Trojans_Oh_My.html
- http://forums.spywareinfo.com/index.php?showforum=18

HijackThis download locations:
http://castlecops.com/zx/Merijn/hijackthis.zip
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip
http://downloads.subratam.org/hijackthis.zip
It is important that you run HijackThis.exe in its own folder so the backup files that HijackThis creates will not be accidentally deleted.
Open 'My Computer', then double-click to open C:\ (or the drive letter that your Windows is installed on)
In the menu bar, click File-->New-->Folder.
That will create a folder named New Folder, which you can rename to "HJT" or "HijackThis". Now you have C:\HJT\ or C:\HijackThis\ folder. Put your HijackThis.exe there, and double click to run it.
Click 'Scan' button. Click 'Save log' button. Save the 'hijackthis.log' in your desktop. Copy and paste the content of 'hijackthis.log' and post the log file in any forums that offers HijackThis analysis.
Most of what it lists will be harmless, so do not fix anything yet.
BEFORE you post your HJT log - it would be appreciated if you would :

Please be PATIENT - For those of you looking for assistance with HJT logs, please be patient. The experts are really swamped with requests to have logs reviewed etc. If they do not get with you immediately it only means they are helping someone else. Remember they do this free of charge and in their spare time so please be patient
Everytime I use google or go.com as a search I get this other search site that comes up called Morwill Search.com I can type my search into google and google will come up with matches, but when I click on a matched site, instead of that site coming up, this Morwill Search.com comes up (another search engine I am guessing). Anyone know how to get rid of it? It reminds me of Winfixxer...which I still can't shake!
Thank you
