I keep getting the hijacker " Quickmetasearch as well as 0Cat yellow pages"
I have deleted 0Cat from ad-remove programs but can't stop the hijacker from changing my system... I have Spybot/ and The updated adaware SE but none seem to find this nor correct this .... nor does my AVG Virus program... however since I updated Adaware it does catch the hijacker from installing when I go on Internet Explorer but does not remove the program ...How can I get rid of this ...
Am Including my Hijack Scan log!
I have windows XP Pro...Ser. Pack 1
