Yeah. I know there is blatant stuff above. Usually, i'm good at even manually removing stuff myself, but Lop has taken me several weeks of work with little or no progress. If you need any other dumps, let me know and i'll be more than happy to give them to you. I just want it gone. :thumbdown:

Greetings and welcome to TomCoyote.org!

LOP DOT COM
-1—–2—–3!

Three words, I think. ;)

Fortunately, it usually not too difficult to remove.

Please download the latest version of Hijack This!

Links to Hijack This! v 1.98.2:

http://tools.radiosplace.com/HijackThis.exe
http://spywarewarrior.com/files/HijackThis.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):

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://www.dzvinwprskqcrucxuhuloy.info/2mk…2a7CMA6UQmc.htm

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [bagsplus] C:\DOCUME~1\Shane\APPLIC~1\KNOBLI~1\Burn play rect.exe

Then click "Fix checked".

Reboot in "safe" mode.

Find and delete:

c:\documents and settings\shane\application data\knobli~1 <— FOLDER
(unsure of full folder name, starts with "knobli")

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. :)

Looks like youre' cerifiably "LOP-less" ;)

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.
