hello drdoom,

i would print this out or save it to a text file so you can get to it, as we will be in safe mode, i also would power off your cable/dsl modem until done.
ok we will, uninstall files, use HJT, boot to safe mode, delete files
could you put HJt into its own folder, right click on desktop,chose new>folder> name it something, then drag the HJT icon into it.
also make sure files are set to show:

FOr XP: on the desktop double click my computer,go to tools>folder options>view> then select "show hidden files and folders", then UNcheck "hide protected operating system files " also UNcheck "hide extensions for known file types" click apply to all folders, apply then ok
—————————————————
look in add/remove programs panel and uninstall the following if present:
Web_Rebates
SearchUpgrader
P2P Networking
Ebates_MoeMoneyMaker
BullsEye Network
————————————————–
scan with HJT, put a checkmark beside the items below, close all windows and click fix checked.

for these delete entire folder:
Ebates_MoeMoneyMaker located here>>C:\Program Files
BullsEye Network>>here>>C:\Program Files
SearchUpgrader>>here>>C:\Program Files\Common files
tsa.exe>>here>>C:\program files\common files
——————————————————–
ok still in SAFE MODE:

Empty your Temp folders. Go to Start > Run and type:cleanmgr. Windows will scan. When done check these 3 and press *ok* to remove:

Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin


Click Start>Run then type %temp%
Hit OK. Delete all the files you can, some wont delete.

hello drdoom,

good work, log is looking good.

some consider wild tangent to be "spyware", do you use it? did you install it?
visit there web site, read there FAQ/privacy policy. i leave it up to you.
be careful what you download from kazza.

see this link:
http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintas…P%20Networking/

is there a uninstaller for P2P Networking in the add/remove programs panel?(probably not)
if so uninstall it from there if not proceed like this:


scan with HJT, put a checkmark beside the items below, close all windows and click fix checked.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [P2P Networking] C:\WINDOWS\system32\P2P Networking\P2P Networking.exe /AUTOSTART
——————————————————————-
next reboot computer into SAFE MODE by tapping the F8 key at startup, chose SAFE MODE,
find and delete>>P2P Networking>> located here>>C:\WINDOWS\system32
——————————————————————-
reboot normally

for your reference;
Please follow a few tips to remain malware free:

1) Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update occasionaly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

Also download, install and keep updated- Antivirus Software (and use only one):
Free for home users:
http://www.avast.com/eng/free_virus_protectio.html
http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/ AVG free version v6.0 updates end 12/31/04>>>get new (still free) version 7.0
http://www.free-av.com/

2) Watch what you download, and where you download it from. Many programs come bundled with crapware. Make sure you know what it is you will be downloading and installing. Visit the makers website, learn more about the program, Does the program you want come bundled with other "3rd party" programs? What do the 3rd party programs do? Will they deliver ads? Track your surfing habits?.You may be installing more than you think, Read the EULA agreement, you know that paragraph of stuff you "agree to" before the software installs? Stay away from warez and crack sites. Becarful what you download from file sharing networks.If you are not sure, scan it with your Antivirus app. A small file (in KB) is probably not what you think it is.Many p2p clients also install 3rd party stuff you probably dont want.

3)Adjust your browser settings: Change your(active x) settings in IE. With IE open go to tools, internet options, security tab. Click on the internet globe, then custom level. Set the first option "download signed active x controls" to prompt, the next two to disable. Read more: https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/btw/ie/ie-opts.htm
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/using/…y/settings.mspx
Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

4)Install a firewall. A firewall will control what comes in from the internet and what leaves your computer to the internet. A firewall will also alert you when a application trys to connect to the internet from your computer, this is a good way to catch crapware or trojans, trying to connect out bound from your computer- whats that and why does it need a internet connection? You can deny it access it until more investigation is done. Zone Alarm is a free and easy to use firewall, that will provide in and outbound protection. Microsoft XP firewall only provides inbound protection. SP2 adds in and out bound protection which is better than nothing, but is not as robust as third party firewalls, Be sure to run only >one< firewall.If you use another, be sure to disable XP's built in firewall.A inexpensive NAT hardware router with SPI (firewall)would be even better,along with a software firewall.
Zone Alarm: http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/home.jsp
Kerio Personal Firewall: http://www.kerio.com/us/kpf_home.html
Outpost Firewall: http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpost/

5)Download, install and update before using:(if these are constantly finding malware, then you need to make some changes.)
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition: http://www.lavasoft.de/
Spybot Search and destroy: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"– there are many "rogue/suspect" programs that "claim to remove" spyware.


6)Other programs to consider:
SpywareBlaster: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/ind…showtutorial=49
IE-SPYAD: https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm#IESPYAD
AntiTrojan (free) software to fill in the gap:
a2 free: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/
Ewido Security Suite: http://www.ewido.net/en/
