With no other windows open click on fix checked button in Hijackthis.

Exit Hijackthis.

Reboot to SAFE MODE

Show HIDDEN FILES and folders

These necessary options are explained in FAQ's 8 and 9
on this page:

http://www.russelltexas.com/malware/faqhijackthis.htm

Hit Control-Shift-Escape keys at same time. Click on Processes tab and End Task for the following entries:

uerhlum.exe
qsmmgwa..exe
hpdllhost.exe
Weather.exe
cioo.exe
ghfovmw.exe
calme.exe
WToolsA.exe (if present)
WToolsB.dll (if present)
WToolsS.exe


Open Windows Explorer: type the word explorer at Start/Run box and click OK:
(Note…if the Run button is absent, right button click on the Start button and left button click on the word explore.

Navigate down the folder structure in left hand window and then in the right window delete the following files and/or folders: (if present…some may be gone…but look very carefully and make sure you have enabled hidden files option):

FILES:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\icdd7ee6.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\iel2cde8.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\he3e3fc4.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\li01f948.dll
C:\Windows\system32\netcom32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\hpdllhost.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\readdb40.dll
C:\WINDOWS\System32\awzoit.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\ghfovmw.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\calme.exe


C:\WINDOWS\srchupdt.exe
C:\WINDOWS\alchem.exe
C:\WINDOWS\uerhlum.exe
C:\WINDOWS\qsmmgwa..exe

C:\Documents and Settings\Oludare\Application Data\cioo.exe


FOLDERS:

C:\Program Files\TV Media
C:\Program Files\Common Files\WinTools
C:\Program Files\AutoUpdate
C:\Program Files\AWS

Special Deletion Comments:

If Wintools resists: Navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Wintools

Right button click on Wintools folder icon and uncheck Read-only box. Click on Advanced tab and see if there is a security tab. Go in it and check all boxes to give you permissions over that folder.

Do the same if there is a Temp subfolder under WinTools.

Now right button click on Wintools folder and delete.

Exit Explorer and empty the Recycle Bin.

Reboot in normal mode Windows and run Disk Cleanup: type cleanmgr at Start/Run. Scan all hard drives and check all categories at the end and click OK.

If you have any problems with Disk Cleanup completing…XP users can fix it here:

http://www2.whidbey.net/djdenham/DeleteOldFiles.htm

Next…download and run these two programs (Spybot S&D and Adaware) at the link below. Use Spybot first.

Most of the Internet baddies can be killed by a one-two punch with Spybot and Adaware assuming these three factors are achieved:

1. Latest version
2. Configured correctly for running options
3. New definitions from update feature


Please download the latest Adaware which is called SE edition and Spybot 1.3.

Graphic-based tutorials at:

http://russelltexas.com/malware/spybot13/spybot13.htm

http://russelltexas.com/malware/adawarese/adawarese.htm

Follow the directions for proper use of those excellent products.

Next, reboot a final time and browse a bit, exit IE 6 and post a new Hijackthis log in this thread. Please do this even if you feel it is clean as this is beneficial for our classroom trainees and future researchers. Your help is appreciated.


Special Comments: After the final all clear is given by us you should flush your Restore Points for XP. That means disabling the Restore Point, rebooting to flush it, then re-enabling a new Restore Point. The reason why we need to do this is to purge the bad files hidden in System Restore which can't be cleaned by your antivirus programs.

The log is clean!!! :thumbup:

GOD bless!!!

Items you may wish to consider to harden your defenses against future infections:

Read "How did I get infected in the first place?" here:

http://boards.cexx.org/viewtopic.php?t=957

Download IE-Spyad here:

https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm

IE-Spyad puts over 4000 known malicious web sites into IE's "restricted zone" to help prevent you from getting infected.

Check your browser settings here:

http://browsercheck.qualys.com/index.php

A series of "tests" (and suggested fixes) to help tweak IE's settings to help prevent infections when surfing the web.

Follow safe Internet practices:

1. Keep your virus definitions up to date, and scan your system regularly.

2. Don't open email, or download attachments from unrecognized email addresses.

3. Be careful when downloading email attachments, EVEN FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW! Many virii, worms, and trojans infect a persons system then immeadiately spread themselves to the people in the infected persons addressbook via email attachments.

4. Be careful downloading files from the Internet. Scan all downloaded files with a reliable UP-TO-DATE antivirus program. Scan "zip" files BEFORE unzipping, and scan all unzipped files BEFORE USING THEM.

5. Keep your Windows and IE current with all the latest patches and updates.
(I am waiting until they get the bugs out of SP2 for XP before I upgrade)

Great job…way to go! You waxed that stuff. :thumbup:

One minor dead orphan line you can fix check in HJT:

After that…stay clean:

Lesson here in Netiquette 101:

Please consider the effects of what is commonly known as "crossposting" to different Forums for the same computer problem.

Two experts here spent time (which is in short supply considering the many unanswered logs) on your problem unaware the other one was working on your log. So please be aware of how crossposting costs us time that could have been spent fixing another person's log.

Still, we're glad you got it repaired.

All the best,

This ActiveX is for EasySearchBar and should be considered hostile and you should fix check it in Hijackthis:

I thought it looked bad when I first saw it, but you had so much else I didn't research it until Micah and I discussed it.

Also…I forgot to mention you need to delete the RedSwoosh folder…Micah caught that one in his post:

C:\Program Files\rsnet <— FOLDER
