Good work! :thumbup:

You've knocked it down to a more manageable level.

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

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

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName =

R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {87766247-311C-43B4-8499-3D5FEC94A183} - (no file)

O2 - BHO: SDWin32 Class - {6B390391-3ED0-4C0A-95DF-6922D2B94685} - C:\WINNT\System32\zkmlb.dll (file missing)

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winupdtl] C:\WINNT\System32\winupdtl.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [pgtaff] C:\WINNT\pgtaff.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [gnbg] C:\WINNT\ipfnqve.exe

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [SYSsfit] C:\WINNT\SYSsfit.exe

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Y359RXe6P] lz30_qc.exe

Then click "Fix checked".

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Find and delete:

c:\program files\common files\wintools <— FOLDER

c:\program files\dr_s <— FOLDER

c:\winnt\ipfnqve.exe <— file

c:\winnt\pgtaff.exe <— file

c:\winnt\syssfit.exe <— file

c:\winnt\system32\lz30_qc.exe <— file

c:\winnt\system32\winupdt.exe <— file

c:\winnt\system32\winupdtl.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. :)

OPTIONAL FIX

Uninstall "Viewpoint Manager" then reboot. It is considered to be spyware.

Just a couple of things left to cleanup. :thumbup:

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

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

R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,CustomizeSearch =

Then click "Fix checked".

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

Malware can be downloaded by clicking things you shouldn't.

It also can be put on your machine by "rogue" websites because of improper IE browser settings.

Here are some things to consider to help prevent future infections.

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.

That's about as "good as it gets".

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.
