Is there a new and improved version of this monster out? I'm haveing a terrible time getting it off a computer. I'm using what I think is the most current version of SmitfraudFix by Siri ( downloaded it 11-19-08 ) and I've run it at least 5 times ( in safe mode) and it will not run the clean/fix registry after disk cleanup. I'm not even sure the disk cleanup is finishing because the screen just goes blank. I have to ctrl-alt-delt to restart.
any help is apperciated, Thanks

An hijackthis log would be handy too.
Thanks Crunchie, I wish I could install the malwarebytes program but the computer won't let me! I'm going to post in Viruses/Trojans/Spyware forum now because I'm at my wits end.
Thanks
Post a HijackThis log at any rate - let's see what is brewing in there.
If, after downloading, it doesn't want to run - rename the executable to something like, say, Analyze.exe.
