    Posted

    I would love if someone could do me a favor...

    I need to put this image:

    steamster8xf.gif

    ontop of this one:

    bani39ve.jpg

    and it'd be cool if you could take the white out of the first one so it would look ... right I guess...

    I think the colors are going to collide with each other kinda bad ... but I was wondering if I could see what it looked like together...

    any help would be loved!! :D

    Hello garmanma.

    Some final clean-up steps.... :) You may want to print this out for reference.

    STEP 1:

    Please open HJT and scan your computer. Place a check next to the following entries:

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {06C7CAB4-39AC-499F-BCD2-D487DAC7A73C} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\sstqr.dll (file missing)

    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {4D0DA2EA-07AE-44F4-A8D2-627B3EE857E5} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\pmnll.dll (file missing)

    Please close all open windows and click on fix checked.

    aanndd.....

    WE'RE DONE!!!

    You are clean! If you are still having issues please tell me, if not please refer to this prevention speech for tips on how not to get infected again!

    btw.. Panda scan is suppoused to do that, it's not suppoused to be maximized. :)

    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.

    1. Spybot Search & Destroy - Uber powerful tool which can search and annhilate nasties that make it onto your system. Now with an Immunize section that will help prevent future infections.
    2. AdAware - Another very powerful tool which searches and kills nasties that infect your system. AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy compliment each other very well.
    3. SpywareBlaster - Great prevention tool to keep nasties from installing on your system.
    4. SpywareGuard - Works as a Spyware "Shield" to protect your computer from getting malware in the first place.
    5. 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.
    6. CleanUP! - Cleans temporary files from IE and Windows, empties the recycle bin and more. Great tool to help speed up your computer and knock out those nasties that like to reside in the temp folders.
    7. Windows Updates - It is very important 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.
    8. Google Toolbar - Free google toolbar that allows you to use the powerful Google search engine from the bar, but also blocks pop up windows.
    9. Trillian or Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)

    To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein

  21. Deleting Files With Safe Mode

    in Spyware/Adware Information

    Posted

    I use killbox more because I know what file I put there to delete is more than likely gonna be deleted.. It greatly lowers the chance of a user deleting the wrong thing because you have them paste what they're going to delete. It also makes it easier because you dont have to explain how to hide / rehide files and you dont have to boot into Safe Mode which saves time and is more user-friendly. :)
