Offeroptimizer and Hijack This

Forums: Computers
Email this Topic • Print this Page

I've read all of the posts about how to get rid of the offeroptimizer spyware, and have tried it all, but nothing is working. I am posting my Hijack this log and begging for help. I'm very new at this this, so I'm hoping I'm doing it right.

Thanks so much,
Amy W.
