My browser was hijacked and kept returning to the following homepage:

res://yrzitdll/index.html#37049

After a bit of research I did the following:

Under internet options>advanced - I unchecked the 'enable third party browser extensions'

Restarted computer in Safe Mode

Ran AdAware (v6.0 Build 6.181; reference 01R325 27.6.2004)

Deleted everything it came up with

Ran HijackThis. Here is the log:

I checked and fixed the following:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\yrzit.dll/sp.html#37049
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = res://C:\WINDOWS\yrzit.dll/sp.html#37049
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = res://C:\WINDOWS\yrzit.dll/sp.html#37049

I then rebooted the computer in Normal Mode. The problem seems to be fixed. I'm no longer sent to the res:// site and I'm no longer getting the "Only the Best" pop-ups.

However, I am getting an Error message and IE shuts down whenever I try to use the drop-down arrow on the Address bar (to look at my previously visited sites).

When I deleted the files in the HijackThis log, did I delete someting vital to IE??

Is this just a temporary fix?

Is there anything else I need to do? I'm sure I need to do more in the HijackThis log.

Thanks!!
