:rant2: It was a dark and stormy night. I was converting scans of slides to digital files with a Nikon scanner when an internet browser page in Explorer opened over and over, regardless of how fast I clicked the "X" box to close it. I finally had to abort the scanning and close everything down to reboot. When the browser was opened again it defaulted to "about.blank", and resetting the default page with Internet Options didn't work.

I ran Spybot Advanced after searching for updates and removed the two files for Gator, but the problem persists. There are a number of "about.blank" files in the HyjackThis log I ran, plus one suspicious "sureseeker" file, but I'm sure there are others. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can begin to work on getting rid of this Monday. The log follows:

Click here to download and install Registrar Lite. Install, run, copy and paste this line to reglite's address bar:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\\AppInit_DLLs

and hit the "go" tab. Find: "Appinit_Dlls" value on the right side panel, DoubleClick, copy and post here the information in the 'Value' field.

Click here or here to download FindnFix.exe (2K/XP only!) by freeatlast. Double-click on the FINDnFIX.exe and it will install a folder called FINDnFIX on your system. Go to that folder and double-click on !LOG!.bat. The program takes a few minutes to collect the necessary information. When done post the contents of Log.txt in this thread.

Could you click here to download CWShredder by Merijn Bellekom and run it, hit 'fix' as opposed to 'scan only'. If you already have CWShredder, click 'Check for update' and make sure you are running version 1.59.1 Reboot when done.

Click here to download Ad-Aware and install. Before scanning click on "check for updates now" to make sure you have the latest reference file. Then click the gear wheel at the top and check these options:

General> activate these: "Automatically save log-file" and "Automatically quarantine objects prior to removal"

Scanning > activate these: "Scan within archives", "Scan active processes", "Scan registry", "Deep scan registry", "Scan my IE Favorites for banned sites" and "Scan my Hosts file"

Tweaks > Scanning Engine> activate this: "Unload recognized processes during scanning."

Tweaks > Cleaning Engine: activate these: "Automatically try to unregister objects prior to deletion" and "Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."

Click "Proceed" to save your settings, then click "Start", make sure "Activate in-depth scan" is ticked green then scan your system. When the scan is finished, the screen will tell you if anything has been found, click "Next". The bad files will be listed, right click the pane and click "Select all objects" - this will put a check mark in the box at the side, click "Next" again and click "OK" at the prompt "# objects will be removed. Continue?".

Reboot when done. Rescan with HJT and post a new log here for a final check over.

I've run the suggested cure steps, including deleting Microsoft JVM, and rebooted. I reinstalled Java from the Sun site, although I didn't find any reference to the term "JVM" there. You asked me to rescan with "HJT"…what is that? I did use to FindnFix to generate the following log, as I did earlier. Hopefully I'm close to once again having a clean machine! :wavey: »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»*** freeatlast100.100free.com ***»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] »»»IE build and last SP(s) 6.0.2800.1106 SP1-Q832894-Q330994-Q837009-Q831167 The type of the file system is FAT32.
