If you see a file called enewsletterpro.exe running on your computer, your PC has been infected with the StartPage.aha trojan.




Remove enewsletterpro.exe

Step 1: The first step to removing this trojan is to run HijackThis and fix any entries that have "enewsletterpro.exe" in them. 

Step 2: Reboot your computer into Safe Mode, and delete the file C:\WINDOWS\enewsletterpro.exe (or wherever HijackThis reported that this file was hiding).

Step 3: Reboot your computer again and follow the directions in our Get Rid of Spyware guide. This will remove the last traces of this trojan, as well as protect your PC from future infections.
