Hi thunderstorm, and welcome to TSF!

Let's do a little preliminary cleaning, then see what's running on your computer.

If you haven't already, download, install, update immediately, then run AdawareSE. Make sure to customize the settings in Ad-aware for better scan results.

Then download, install, update immediately then run Spybot S&D.

Have each fix whatever problems they may find.

Next, run an online virus scan at TrendMicro or RAV Antivirus.
Please select the autoclean option when using Trend Micro.

Then get HijackThis . This program will help us determine if there are any spyware/malware on your computer. Run the scan, save the log, but do not fix anything yet. Many files it finds are harmless, and required for your system to operate.

Post your log here.

 

Hi -

I also have a problem with whatever this "delprot" thing is. My Kaspersky anti-virus picks it up but is unable to get rid of it. I picked up about 20 trojans while visiting a site recently. I tried AVG, but it was useless. Kaspersky got rid of a lot of them, but I still have a few problems, which may or may not be related to Delprot. For example, there is this annoying desktop search bar that appears in the lower right corner of my screen. Also, when I do a search with Google, some advertisement always pops up in the middle of my screen using the topic that I typed in Google. I tried out HijackThis, here are the results from the logfile :
