  1. Hello and Welcome to BT. :)

    I am MoNsTeReNeRgY22 and I will be assisting you with your malware problem today.

    Please download this file - combofix.exe by sUBs

    • Save it to your Desktop
    • Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
    • Now physically disconnect from the internet and STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields)
    • Click on your START button and choose Run. Then copy/paste the entire content of the following quotebox (Including the "" marks and the Symbols) into the run box.
      "%userprofile%\desktop\ComboFix.exe" /KillAll

    • Click OK and this will start ComboFix in a special way.
    • When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to a Notepad File to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log.

    Note:

    Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

    * After you have saved the logs, restart your system to re-enable all the programs that were disabled during the running of ComboFix.

    * Reconnect to the internet

    * Post the following logs/Reports:

    • ComboFix.txt
    • Fresh HijackThis log run after all the other tools have performed their cleanup.

  2. Since this issue appears to be resolved ... this Topic has been closed. Glad we could help. :)

    If you're the topic starter, and need this topic reopened, please contact a staff member with the address of the thread.

    Everyone else please begin a New Topic.

  3. Nice job your log looks clean!

    Please use the following suggestion to help prevent reinfection.

    Well from your logs, you are clear of malware. I would post in the PC support section if you are still having issues. Let them know that I have cleared you of malware as well.

    http://www.besttechie.net/forums/PC-Support-f3.html

    Also, you may delete any tools I had you download during the cleaning process.

    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware - A very powerful tool which searches and kills malware that infects your system.

    **Tutorial on installing & using this product can be found HERE**

    SpywareBlaster - Great prevention tool to keep malware from installing on your system.

    **Tutorial on installing & using this product can be found HERE**

    SpywareGuard - Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.

    **Tutorial on installing & using this product can be found HERE**

    IE-SpyAd - Puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.

    **Tutorial on installing & using this product can be found HERE**

    Antivirus Program An Antivirus program is almost a necessity in today's digital world to stay protected. I notice that you don't have one installed! Therefore I recommend avast! 4 Home Edition, Anti-Vir, or PC Tools AntiVirus.

    Firewall A firewall is very important, in order to protect your computer from hackers. I notice that you don't have one installed! Therefore I recommend Comodo, Online Armor, or Outpost.

    **Tutorial on Firewalls can be found HERE**

    It is important to run only one of each type of protection program in resident mode at a time since conflicts can make them less effective. This would mean only one resident antivirus, firewall and scanning type of anti-spyware. Programs like SpywareBlaster and IE-Spyads do not conflict with any of these.

    Windows Updates - It is highly recommend to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.

    It is also highly recommended to stay on top of your updates at all times, for Windows and all the above mentioned applications. This will ensure that you stay protected at the maximum level possible.

    And finally a little recommended action-smiley-036.gifHow did I get infected in the first place?(by Tony Klein)

    Good luck and safe surfing :)

  4. Hello again,

    Lets run a software scan to make sure you are clean of malware. Then we will get back to the java/active x problem.

    Download and scan with SUPERAntiSpyware Free for Home Users

    • Double-click SUPERAntiSpyware.exe and use the default settings for installation.
    • An icon will be created on your desktop. Double-click that icon to launch the program.

      [*]Click Close to exit the program.

  5. Hello again,

    Well at this point, your computer is fixed and free of malware only. I would now post in the hardware forum with your problem, and let them know I have cleaned you of malware. I will leave this topic open so you can post the final results as well.

    You can keep Ad-Aware if you wish, but I would recommend Online Armor out of the three firewalls. Also, I would highly recommend ATF Cleaner over disc clean up.

    If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

  6. Nice job your log looks clean!

    How is it running?

    Please use the following suggestion to help prevent reinfection.

    Also, you may delete any tools I had you download during the cleaning process.

    Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs from changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)Now we need to make a new System Restore Point for your PC, please do the following

    • Click Start, Settings, Control Panel
    • Double-click the System icon
    • Click the Performance tab, File System, Troubleshooting tab
    • Check "Turn off System Restore" and click "Apply". Please give a moment as it will delete the old System Restore points
    • Then uncheck "Turn off System Restore" which will create a new System Restore point
    • Click OK

    I highly recommend downloading the following programs, to keep malware of your computer to begin with.

    The following is a list of tools and utilities that I like to suggest to people. This list is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.

    ATF Cleaner - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out malware that like to reside in the temp folders.

    Firewall A firewall is definitely a must have to protect your computer from hackers. I recommend Comodo, Online Armor, or Outpost.

  15. Hello and Welcome to BT. :)

    I am MoNsTeReNeRgY22 and I will be assisting you with your malware problem today.

    Sorry for the delay!

    Please visit this web page for instructions for downloading and running ComboFix:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

    This includes installing the Windows XP Recovery Console in case you have not installed it yet.

    For more information on the Windows XP Recovery Console read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314058.

    Once you install the Recovery Console, when you reboot your computer, you'll see the option for the Recovery Console now as well. Don't select Recovery Console as we don't need it. By default, your main OS is selected there. The screen stays for 2 seconds and then it proceeds to load Windows. That is normal.

    Once you have finished installing the Windows Recovery Console, please continue with the rest of the tutorial at the above link.

    Post the log from ComboFix when you've accomplished that, along with a new HijackThis log.

    • A new HijackThis log along with the Jotti results.

  20. Hello and Welcome to BT. :)

    I am MoNsTeReNeRgY22 and I will be assisting you with your malware problem today.

    Please visit this web page for instructions for downloading and running ComboFix:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

    This includes installing the Windows XP Recovery Console in case you have not installed it yet.

    For more information on the Windows XP Recovery Console read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314058.

    Once you install the Recovery Console, when you reboot your computer, you'll see the option for the Recovery Console now as well. Don't select Recovery Console as we don't need it. By default, your main OS is selected there. The screen stays for 2 seconds and then it proceeds to load Windows. That is normal.

    Once you have finished installing the Windows Recovery Console, please continue with the rest of the tutorial at the above link.

    Post the log from ComboFix when you've accomplished that, along with a new HijackThis log.

  21. I would do what Besttechie and also a quick note.

    Unless you are comparatively knowledgeable about your version of Windows, you can certainly do more harm to your computer's functioning than any small improvements made by registry cleaners warrant.

    There are safer methods to employ to speed performance, and these usually produce noticeable results. See this link for a start.
