Thank you so much for your help, fish, you kick ass. However none of the reccomendations I tried helped.

I spent all day trying things, and then I decided to hit eject on my cd player to see if it still opened while I had a blank screen, and the windows screen popped up and started loading on screen! ****ing awesome, and I'm pleased.

Argh! My browser hijack is back. WTF do I have to do to get rid of this ****ing thing?

Stop surfing midget bestiality sites?

You must think very little of me. I don't like midgets.

I do. They make everything look bigger.

Donger,

Do the HijackThis thing that I said to do in a reply to your other thread (it is also mentioned in the OP of this thread).

So, I just copy and paste the log?

Yes

Oh, and during one of my many AdAware, Spybot, etc. scans, this little bugger kept popping up:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.fsharproj

I don't like the bolded -- in hijackthis, put a check in the box next to that entry and then select to "fix checked".

edit: also, be sure your doing all your scanners and tools in safe mode.

Are you doing everything in Safe Mode?

If malwarebytes caught it the first time and you weren't in Safe Mode, I'd run it in Safe Mode, reboot into Safe Mode, and run the scan again. If it comes back after all of that, research the Rogue Removal Kit/ComboFix in the OP.

I've done all of them in both Safe Mode and Normal. Now, even though it doesn't show up in any of the programs, I still have the symptoms.

Well, I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed the latest version, and it appears that the hijack has disappeared. That was simple.
