    Hijack This...Is this a Virus of some kind ???

     
    Howdy,

    Having some grief with several "Hijack This" windows popping up everytime someone goes into their profile. Not sure where it came from, but it's there bitching at me everytime I log on. It's in the startup menu and after I remove it, it's back after the next reboot or logon. Any ideas on this one as usually the hijack this program is useful not a pain in the A** By the way I don't have that software installed, but have used it on previous computers. Anyone heard of this little bugger?

    Cheers,
    Max

    How can we be sure to download the correct Hijackthis application? Does anyone have the website or can you provide a link? The sticky for this application is no longer valid.
