2. I'm Going Nuts With This!

Welcome to the forum.

You AboutBlank isn't showing right now, but you need to get a free virus scan and run AdAware - links bekow:

http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp <—virus scan, make sure you set it to autoclean.

http://www.cjwd.demon.co.uk/spybot-adaware.html <—AdAware download and tells you how to set it up and run it

Do this also:
Download CW-Shredder, hit the FIX button and let it run and fix what it finds.
http://tools.radiosplace.com/CWShredder.exe

Do those three things, reboot a few times and post a fresh HJT log when the AB is present. MrC


=================================================

I see you have another log posted, is this the same computer or a different one??

Hey thanks for your help. Yes I do have another log posted but it's a different computer than this one. I had posted them together but received a reply to post them separately. These are two computers that are networked at my boss's house and I'm trying to help. The other computer acts as the "server" and it's really having trouble with aboutblank. Before I posted these logs, I ran McAfee first and then adaware on this computer. I also ran spybot before hijackthis. McAfee found nothing but I think it's out of date. I'll go to the antivirus you suggest. The other computer has norton. I'll follow your instructions and let you know. If you can help with the other computer that's great. If not I understand your time is limited and maybe someone else will reply. Once again, I really appreciate your help.

Hello adamsgillian,

I will be taking over for MrCharlie to help you out. This is one of the most severe infections to remove that we see these days. I do not believe that the steps you have taken so far have removed about blank from this computer. I will be answering your other log as well. Please do the following steps in order.:

Step#1

The first thing I need you to do is download the file from here:

Getservice.zip

Extract the file to the c:\ drive. Then navigate to the c:\getservices and double-click on the getservices.bat file. A notepad will open up. Please paste the contents of that notepad as a reply to this post.


Step#2

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

Please post those two log files in this thread using Add Reply and I will give you further instructions.

Here are the two log files you asked for. Let me know what to do next when you can. Thanks again for all of your help!

I am trying to work on your step #6. You referrence "links at the bottom of this post" and I don't see any links. Can you help? Gillian

Ignore my previous message. I must have been blind for a second! I found them. Thanks G

Hi Gillian

Step#1

1. Please download Stinger a standalone AV tool for some of the more common worm infections seen these days. It is from McAfee AV products.
2. When prompted, choose to save the file to a convenient location on your hard disk (such as your Desktop folder).
3. When the download is complete, navigate to the folder that contains the downloaded Stinger.exe file, and run it. WindowsME/XP users read this first.
4. The Stinger interface will be displayed.
5. If necessary, click the Add or Browse button to add additional drives/directories to scan. By default the C: drive will be scanned.
6. Click the Scan Now button to begin scanning the specified drives/directories.
7. By default Stinger will repair all infected files found.

Step#2

1. Scan again with HJT (with ALL Windows CLOSED except HJT)

2. Put a Check mark beside the following entries (if they are still there)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Windows Registry Scan] regscan.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Windows Registry Scan] regscan.exe

3. REBOOT into Safe Mode by Tapping F8 while booting up

4. DELETE the following file

regscan.exe (it will probably be in either C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32

5. REBOOT into normal mode

6. Scan again with HJT

7. Please POST a new log file here in this thread

Good Luck!
