Hi Qvoeth, welcome to Tom Coyote Forums

First of all:
Update Hijack This
Your HijackThis is an old version. and you should download the current version of HiJackThis: here.
Place it in its own folder in "My Documents".
Unzip it by right clicking the zipped folder and selecting "Extract Here". (When you run HijackThis from this folder and have it "Fixed checked" it will create a backup file of modifications to use if restore is necessary.) Make sure that you delete your old copy of "HijackThis" to prevent conflicts or mistakes.
Do not make any changes or click "fix checked" until you are told to do so. Many of the files are legitimate and some are vital to your computer's health

Please download and run Ad-Aware SE & Spybot Search & Destroy Then follow the instructions in the link below to run.

Spybot Tutorial

Ad-Aware Tutorial

Reboot after each Scan is finished to let the programs finish deleting what they found.

Double click "HijackThis.exe", and hit "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log to the folder where you have "Hijack This". Open the log file and right click on the text. Click "Select all" and copy its contents to this topic by clicking "Add Reply" at the bottom of the page and pasting your copied log into the window.

1. Do you recognize a program with the name DigitalTimepiece or Digital Timepiece?
2. Do you use multiple monitors?
3. Have you set any policies or did you activate the 'Lock homepage from changes' option in some kind of anti-spyware tool?
Please answer me about those three questions with your next log. It will make it easier to continue.
Post #3
(First of all, thank you very much for answering me. :thumbup: ) I recognize the program DigitalTimepiece (it turns my clock into a binary one) I do not have multiple monitors. And, yes, I do have some spyware-blockers and an IE add-on shell which lock my homepage.

Um…sorry again…although I downloaded the version from your link, it too was the old one. Here's a log from the new one.

Thanks Qvoeth for your answers and your log. Sorry about the delay.

Now Clean out temporary files.
Go to "Start" > "Run" and type cleanmgr
Make sure the following are selected:
* Temporary Internet Files
* Recycle Bin
* Temporary Files
Click "OK'.
Repeat for each user account on the computer.

Please Fix items with HijackThis as follows:

Make sure that ALL WINDOWS and BROWSERS are CLOSED.

Run a "HijackThis" scan. When it has finished the scan, mark the following items by placing a check mark in the appropriate boxes. When you finished marking items click "fix checked"

Now you need to Restart in safe mode:

Restart the computer. When the BIOS has finished loading (before Windows starts loading) start rapidly tapping the "F8".
This can be tricky. If Windows starts up in normal mode, repeat the process. If you have a keyboard with a "F Lock" key click it so that the "F" light above it is on when you start tapping the "F8" key.

Delete C:\WINDOWS\ALCXMNTR.EXE <—-This file
C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\tsa <—–This Folder

If you are unsure how to do it here is an example of how to delete the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\xxxxxxx.dll
Click "Start", Double-click "My Computer". Same on "C:" drive. Same on "Windows" folder. Same on "system32" folder. Right click "xxxxxxxx.dll" Select delete. The file is deleted.
If it is folder you want to delete right click it and select delete.

Reboot in Normal Mode.
With ALL WINDOWS and BROWSERS CLOSED run a fresh HijackThis log and post it to this topic so that I can check to see what still needs to be done.

OK Qvoeth now that your computer is free of malware, I want you to take some precautions to avoid being re-infected.

Settings and maintenance

1. Clean out temporary files.
Go to "Start" > "Run" and type cleanmgr
Make sure the following are selected:
* Temporary Internet Files
* Recycle Bin
* Temporary Files
Click "OK'.
Repeat for each user account on the computer.
You should do this every few weeks to avoid buildup of unnecessary junk.


2. Clean Out System Restore.
Malware could get backed up in System Restore.
For Win XP follow these instructions to delete all restore points.
1. Go to "Start" > "Control Panel".
2. Make sure the Control Panel is in "Classic View". If it is not, click "Switch to Classic View" towards the top-left of the screen.
3. Double-click "System" and go to the "System Restore" tab.
4. Check "Turn off System Restore" and click "OK" and then "Yes".

After restarting your computer you should turn it back on by following the above procedure and uncheck "Turn off System Restore".

You can find out more about this subject at
Managing Windows Millennium System Restore

or at

How to turn off or turn on Windows XP System Restore


3. Make your Internet Explorer more secure
This can be done by following these simple instructions that apply to all "Windows" except "Windows XP with SP2". In SP2 many of those setting are the default settings but check your settings anyhow. The settings can become restrictive but you should use them anyhow. If there are sites that will not show up right with those settings and that you rely on to be free of malware place them in the trusted zone.

1. Click "Start". Open "Control Panel".
2. Select the "Internet Options"
3. Select "Security" Tab and select the following settings.

* ActiveX controls and plug-ins
• Download signed ActiveX controls: Disable
• Download unsigned ActiveX controls: Disable
• Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe: Disable
• Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins: Disable
• Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting: Disable

* Downloads
• Font Download: Disable

* Microsoft VM
• Java permissions: Disable Java

* Miscellaneous
• Allow META REFRESH: Disable
• Display mixed content: Disable
• Drag and drop or copy and paste files: Disable
• Installation of desktop items: Disable
• Launching programs and files in an IFRAME: Disable
• Navigate sub-frames across different domains: Disable
• Software channel permissions: High Safety
• Userdata persistence: Disable

* Scripting
• Active scripting: Disable
• Allow paste operations via script: Disable
• Scripting of Java applets: Disable

* User Authentication
• Logon: Prompt for username and password
4. When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
5. If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
6. Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.


These are a must to protect yourself from malware.
1. Run a good anti-virus.. If for some reason you want to change your Antivirus you should know that lot of people like AVG . It has a free version.
If you have an old copy do not use it. AVG Free 7 has been released and version 6 will not be supported and updated anymore.
KEEP yuor antivirus UPDATED

2. Keep a good firewall at all times.
Many like ZoneAlarm. You can download a free copy here

3. MOST IMPORTANT: You Need to keep “Windows” and "Internet Explorer” updated. Open ‘Internet Explorer” and go to”Start”> "Tools" > "Windows Update" or go to Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer Updates to get the critical updates. If you are not sure that you will install the updates set the computer to automatically install them. You can do this if you click "Start" > "Control Panel" > "Secutity Center". If "Automatic Updates" is green it is already set. Else click "Turn on Automatic Updates".

If you are running Microsoft Office, or any portion thereof you must keep it updated as well. Go to the Microsoft's Office Update site and make sure you have at least all the critical updates installed. Update MS Office here.

4. Download and install “SpywareBlaster”
Run it. Click "Updates" at the left and click "Check for Updates". After updating click "Protection" at the left and towards the bottom click "Enable All Protection". You should now be protected from all known bad ActiveX. You should occasionally check for updates.

5. Download and install "Spywareblocker"

Further tools

I highly recommend downloading and installing the newest versions of “AdAware SE Personal” and “Spybot Search and Destroy”
After installing remember to update the definition files for each program.
I also suggest that you visit this website and follow the instructions on how to configure both programs for best detection.

There are many other programs that will add extra layers of protection to your computer as well.
I recommend “IE-Spyad” By default, it is unzipped to "C:\ie-spyad". Find out how to install it by going to the "ReadMe.txt". You should occasionally get updates by using the bat file or by uninstalling and deleting the old files and returning to the site to get the new version.

A Trojan scanner would be also be helpful. You can download a trial version of “Trojan Hunter” and run it to remove any traces of trojans.

The”a Squared” trojan Scanner has a free version. It is an onboard trojan scanner that is installed much like Spybot/AdAware but handles trojans. Nice to add to your armor if you wish.
Download free from “a Squared” (The download button is at the bottom of the page). Install it.
Run and activate your free version with a Squared and then select
Scan your computer for malware infections .
Then select any/all drives.
Finally Scan selected folders.

It is worth while to take a look at "So how did I get infected in the first place? for some good advice.

Update all protective programs regularly - Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Best of luck and clean computing
