Anybody see anything in there?

Someone else may have more to add but....


C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WTSSU.EXE

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [WAPI] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\wtssu.exe

This is a worm and needs to be removed.

Norton should have caught that...

Just a little virus.
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\WTSSU.EXE

You bet,that was it.
Done deal,everything is ok.
Thanks guys...again!

May I suggest that you download and install a program called SpyWare Guard. When something tries to hijack your browser a pop up message will come up and tell you that some program has changed your browser page and will ask you if you would like to keep the new value or restore the old value. Since I downloaded this program I have had several attempts at changing my browser but none have been successful. If you look at the log file from the attempts it will tell you who it is and Im sure there is a way the info can be used to block this hijacker from accessing your system again. Daniel
