i tried to get rid of all those but i keep getting denied and i cant figure out how to change the permissions or anything to let me do it and ideas on how?

Click start, run, type compmgmt.msc and press enter. Go to users and groups, users, highlight the administrator account, click action, set password and set a password. Reboot and login as administrator using the new password that you just set. Run Hijack This again and delete the entries that I listed.

i went to the compmagmt.msc and i couldnt find users or anything only stuff like task schedualer and device manager.

Let's try it again. I spelled it wrong.

Click start, run, type compmagmt.msc and press enter. In the left window, you'll see local users and groups. Click on the + sign, open users, highlight administrator, click action, set password.

Reboot and login as administrator using the new password that you just set. Run Hijack This again and delete the entries that I listed.

says unable to find that. im on vista BTW

Right Click My Computer (Vista just calls it computer I think) and select manage.

it comes up with the window that first came up with the command he gave me says nothing about groups or users. i can send a screen shot if u want

Try control panel, user accounts, manage accounts.

I had this logger on my PC too.

1. Delete the WinHel.dll in your system32 folder.

2. Start Windows up in safe mode and open your regedit. Search for WinHel.dll and remove all entries that mention it.

3. Start Windows normally again and run Hijackthis. Delete the previously mentioned entries should they still be there. They may have 'File not found' or something similar at the end of the string.

So far my PC has been clean. Hope this works for you.

my account is set as admin and still nothing. garrr i hate comps at times lol

i fixed the keylogger its the fact i dont have complete control of my comp still i has been like this for awhile.

The strange thing about Windows is, an account with administrator permissions isn't always recognized as a full administrator. I have had that happen to me a number of times.

The last time it happened to me was on Vista. I couldn't update anti malware. When I used runas, it updated.

one thing you can do to get administrative rights is to right click the file and choose run as administrator.

On a more general note, vista does not have a super administrator account by default, like all other windows versions. You can activate this by clicking the windows logo, typing cmd and right click cmd.exe that shows up, choosing run as administrator. Then type in net user administrator /active:yes

You should then be able to relog as a superadministrator, giving you full rights to everything, where you can do everything mentioned above without any access limitations.
