Hi Little Eagle,

I followed your guidlines. Thank you very much. It feels like the computer is running a little fastr. I could still not shutdown proper. I mostly use the Maxthon brouwser because this one will not be redirected. I checked IE but is still redirected to Res://shdocpe.dll.blank.htm. One good thing is It seems I got rid of the anoying dial-up window when starting up. I had to close that one a hundred times or so befor I could use the computer.

You asked about 04 - HKLM|..Run: [SM unplug]SMUnplug.exe
I did the right click but could not open the tag. Info wrote this: Regdit C\windows\system\sp.tmp/S Kernel 32 VSB C:\WINDOWS\temp\install.js
Rund//32 C:|program files\ newdotnet\newdotnet 4-5 dll.newdotnetstart up.

Here after I will give you the new logfile.

Again, Thanks!

Download then unzip and update then run CWShredder to clean up clicking "FIX" to have it remove all it finds.

CWShredder available from these places :-

http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads.php
Or this as a full download without any unzipping required
http://www.downloads.subratam.org/CWShredder.exe

We have found that some of the CWS infections can be removed better from safe mode, rather than normal mode.
To get to safe mode use the F8 key while booting the machine. Detailed instructions from here :-
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgen…001052409420406


Download the latest version of Ad-Aware here:

After installing Ad-Aware, and before running the program.
Please be sure to update the reference file following the instructions here:

Reconfigure Ad-Aware for Full Scan:

Launch the program, and click on the Gear at the top of the start screen.

Click the "Scanning" button.
Under Drives, Folders and Files, select "Scan within Archives".
Click "Click here to select Drives + folders" and select your installed hard drives.

Under Memory & Registry, select all options.
Click the "Advanced" button.
Under "Log-file detail level", select all options.
Click the "Tweaks" button.

Under "Scanning Engine", select the following:
"Unload recognized processes during scanning."
Under "Cleaning Engine", select the following:
"Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."
Click on 'Proceed' to save these Preferences.

Run the Ad-Aware scan and allow it to remove everything it finds and then REBOOT to allow it to finish.

Then post another log.

By the way. Merijns schredder is 'sold' to an other company and you can download it here:

The free version is available for download here:

I belive Spyware Doctor will need to be disabled to alow these start ups to be removed.
disable it and
Close all Browser and Program Windows and have HijackThis fix the following.
Do this by checking the box beside each and then clicking on Fix checked.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Fast start] C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntnut.exe home

Reboot in SAFE MODE.
Delete the following file(s) listed
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntnut.exe

Reboot and Rescan with HJT and post a new log here.
Post #7
I have checked "C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntnut.exe" but could not find it anymore under system32. I think I removed it the last time as you suggested earlier.
I did find however shdocpe.dllwhich is part of the redirecter shdocpe.dll.blank. I also found StopzillaBH0.dll. Are these good or bad?

Beside I got some error messages while running HJT. I will send these to Merijn but will mention them here to. Could you confirm if these have an effect on the logfile or not?

Because I use a japanese system some messages are in Japanese but the above means same as in English.
