Any page I save as home gets hijacked. Unwanted favorites are reinstalled after removal and rebooting.

What can I trash below?

Hello wrj2 I am sorry for the delay but the forum is extremely busy with these hijacks. Your copy of HijackThis is very old and does not show what we need to see for this infection. The infection you have is a very severe infection that takes several steps to complete. I will have you do a few things as well as give me a new log from HJT.

Step #1

Please download and open the following zip file. Double-click on the file inside the zip and when it asks you if you would like to merge the file into your registry, please answer yes. This will make sure all files are visible on your computer.

Step#2

To find the hidden dll which is causing your system to reinstall the spyware each time you restart please download and install the following:
Hello and Welcome to TomCoyote. You have one of the most severe types of infections we are seeing these days and it will take a bit of time to solve your problems. This infection continues to reinstall itself through a hidden dll which we have to find and remove.

1. Please download DllCompare
( The Screenshot will show you how the program will look when it starts.)

2. Start the Program with its default settings and put a check mark in the include subdirectories. Click the Run Locate.com and wait until the scan says complete.

3. Click the Compare button to start the next process.

4. Files in the upper portion have been verified to "exist", Files in the bottom section were not able to be accessed. Very few files should be listed in the bottom section when the Compare scan is complete.

5. Click on each of the listed entries in the lower section to select them. Right-click on the file and use the Option Rescan screenshot.

6. This will cause Windows Find to see if the file does exist, and then it will be removed from the list (to reduce the number of identified files) screenshot

7. Click the Make a Log of what was found button, and post the log here in this thread using Add Reply to receive further instructions.


Step#3

1. Please delete your existing copy of HijackThis

2. Please download a new copy of Hijackthis version 1.98.2
http://forums.subrat...hp?showtopic=41

3. Double Click on 'HijackThis.zip' to extract and install HijackThis.exe
4. Close ALL windows except HJT

5. SCAN with HJT and SAVE LOG. (a notepad window will open with the log in it when you click Save Log) (Ctrl-A to'select all', Ctrl-C to 'copy')

6. Please POST the HijackThis log in this thread using 'Add Reply' (Ctrl-V to 'paste') and also the log from DllCompare.

DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES OR CLICK "FIX CHECKED" UNTIL WE CHECK THE LOG, AS SOME OF THE FILES ARE LEGIT AND VITAL TO THE FUNCTION OF YOUR COMPUTER


Good Luck!
