Ok, Did you follow the advise it gave you to remove it? It gave you 2 options and links that it says can remove it for you.

There is no advice from anyone but I got a Windows system damage, and had a security software detect 'some HotShield program files  as a malware !
and running hijackthis isn’t unable to kill this Startup Item so can you help with?

So I had to try to clean my system using several programs and tools, however, I myself was trying to clean up my computer but got a damage system (blue screen - computer is unable to boot), which I had to restore my system to a previous restore point, and here big thanks for you Shane and also for subs and each of you to develop the best software ever!

shane Do you think it's a bug in the hijackthis ?  :blank:

Did you see if malewarebytes anti rootkit or combofix could get rid of it?
