Hi again. I can't seem to get rid of a trojan. Here is the log again. I have no idea where this is coming from. Your help is greatly appreciated.

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Run Hijack This!
Click "Scan".
Then "check" the box to the left of these item(s):

O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [oecmd.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\oecmd.exe /k

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [oecmd.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\oecmd.exe /k

Then click "Fix checked".

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Find and delete:

c:\windows\system32\m92b0r7.exe <— file

c:\windows\system32\oecmd.exe <— file

Some malware files may be "hidden".
Be sure to show hidden files when looking for these file(s) and/or folder(s).

Reboot in normal mode and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread. :)

Hi again. I reboot in safe mode and attempted to locate the 2 files you asked about. The m92b0r7.exe was hidden in another file and eliminated.

The other file oecmd.exe I could not locate because the Find kept freezing on me. I do not know why this keeps happening in safe mode.

Anyway, here is the log. TY for your help and if you can let me know if there is a method of preventing the "find" freeze when I attempt to search in safe mode please let me know and I will attempt to find the oecmd.exe file.

You have one new entry since the last log. Maybe that is the cause of your problems.

Let's try this on for size. If you still have problems we may need to use other methods to eliminate "oecmd.exe".

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Run Hijack This!
Click "Scan".
Then "check" the box to the left of these item(s):

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7A12A061-1396-4A68-8D0D-920618F280DA} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\4u5.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\RunOnce: [oecmd.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\oecmd.exe /k

O4 - HKCU\..\RunOnce: [oecmd.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\oecmd.exe /k

Then click "Fix checked".

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Find and delete:

c:\windows\system32\4u5.dll <— file
(should already be deleted - be sure!)

c:\windows\system32\oecmd.exe <— file

Some malware files may be "hidden".
Be sure to show hidden files when looking for these file(s) and/or folder(s).

Reboot in normal mode and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread. :)

Hi again Micah,
I HJT the files you told me to. Once again in Safe mode, the "
find" command freezes when locating the oecmd.exe file. :unsure: Here is the updated log.

Well.. On a positive note, the log is clean. :thumbup:

I'm not sure about your "safe mode" problems.

Maybe a virus scan (or two) will uncover something (if you have the time):

Trend-Micro Housecall

Panda Activescan

Etrust Security Advisor

Choose "fix" or "clean".

Let them remove any infections found. Reboot after each scan.

Let me know how things go.

Have you done any of these things to help prevent infection? :unsure:

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.
(Personally, I'm NOT recommending SP2 for XP at this time)
