Sometimes when I'm on the net I go to my homepage and it just sits there for ages like 30 seconds before it starts working again. and when it doesn't find the site it goes to Errorplace.com I hate that can't get rid of it.

Could someone help me out here, drives me mad coz when I Host a game and the Internet freezes like that, He gets kicked out :mad:

Your HiJackThis log looks perfectly normal :)
The only entries you should remove are the two O2 - BHO: (no name) - {549B5CA7-4A86-11D7-A4DF-000874180BB3} - (no file) ones, and the O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {62999427-33FC-4baf-9C9C-BCE6BD127F08} - (no file); they're harmless, but they're unnecessary.

Here are two suggestions:
- Run a (free) online virusscan at http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ - it might take a looooong time with 56k, though.
- Download SwatIt - yups, another spyware scanner, but way more in-depth than Spybot or Adaware.

The "O2 - BHO: (no name) - {E1027C9B-CD21-42C8-B309-2ACC1BDAF39E} - C:\WINDOWS\sxkske.dll" is very dubious.

Yer, well I took a look at this Errorplace thingy and I downloaded a Prog to delete it, but didn't work :( i'll check out that DLL.

It was probably a partial remove of that thing. That's why the removal tool can't deal with it.

I have Bearshare on my computer, and when it put all the programs on my computer I just used adaware and it got rid of it all, so I guess I could still use this program to find anyother unwanted adaware, spyware, Malware :( I hate that stuff

Basic Tools...

NOOBS... DO NOT FORMAT YOUR COMP/REINSTALL WINDOWS...

Doing so, you will fulfill the malicious thingy's purpose (to waste valuable productive time)
Do a virus scan. If that doesn't help, the below will eliminate your problem.

These are problably the basic tools that most users use to thwart off ANY threat:

1. Lavasoft Adaware
2. Spybot Search & Destroy

* Spybot often finds things Adaware can't and vice versa.

If the problem doesn't go away, here's the real secret weapon:

3. BHO Demon 2

* You can't actually fix anything with BHO demon because I doesn't have a delete function. However, you can use BHO demon to identify those DLL's that load whenever you open explorer/IE.
* A BHO is a browser helper object that can just about do anything to your computer, from redirecting your searches to a malicious site, installing softwares w/o your permission, to even erasing files on your computer.
* Once you've identified the malicious DLL, open explorer (Run>explorer.exe) and find that god dam n DLL and delete it. Problem solved.

Thanks for the BHODeamon tip!
The program is simple and easy to use, but who the hell designed its interface? It's very ugly and has a lot of annoying useless tip-screens...
