Post #1
I'm computer impared so please bear with me. And please post in short simple sentences !?! I have ABOUT.Blank as my home page and can't get rid of it. I also have some sites in my favorites that I did not add…7 days free porn, only sex website, search the web. I can not delete them or remove them from add/remove. I found your site listed many times as the place to get help. I have run a scan and this is the log below. Can you help?

I tried to work on some of this myself but not having any luck. I ran Spyware Nuker and it looked like it removed alot but CoolWebSearch and CWS.IEfeatsl will not go away and I still have about:blank as my home page. I ran a new HJT scan and this is the latest log. I will now wait patiently for the experts before I blow it up!
thanks
R

Click here to download CWShredder and run it, hit 'fix' as opposed to 'scan only'. Reboot when done.

Click here to download Spybot Search & Destroy - install, update, scan and fix all RED items it finds. Reboot when done.

Click here to download Ad-Aware SE and install. Before scanning click on "check for updates now" to make sure you have the latest reference file. Click "Start", select "Perform Full System scan" and "Next" to start the scan. When the scan is finished, the screen will tell you if anything has been found, click "Next". The bad files will be listed, right click the pane and click "Select all objects" - this will put a check mark in the box at the side, click "Next" again and click "OK" at the prompt "# objects will be removed. Continue?".

Reboot when done. Rescan with HJT and post a new log here so that any remnants can be removed manually.

OK I did all the steps you advised. When I ran Ad-Aware, it went thru the quarantining selection and when it got to deletion selection, the bar filled but I never received a "finished" box or any confirmation that it actually deleted the selected items. Maybe that's how it works. I ran a new HJT and this is the new log.
Thanks so much!! Robyn

Click here to download the PeperFix tool, save it to your desktop, doubleclick on it, click 'Find and Fix' and reboot if prompted.

Make sure that you have no browser windows open as this could prevent the fix from working properly. Open HijackThis, scan and when complete, remove the following entries by checking the box to the left and clicking 'fixed checked':

Exit HijackThis when done. Reboot into Safe Mode by tapping F8 after the BIOS has loaded. Using Windows Explorer, find and delete the following:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\APIQZ.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\H.EXE

C:\WINDOWS\FARMMEXT.exe
C:\WINDOWS\APIUK32.EXE

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\BCBMLOG.EXE

Exit Explorer and reboot into Normal Mode. Click here to download O15Fix.zip. Extract O15Fix.reg from the zip file and save it to the desktop. When done, double click the O15Fix.reg and when asked to merge say yes.

Rescan with HijackThis and post a new log here.

I tried to everything from your last post. I could not find C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\APIQZ.EX, C;\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\cvkfo.exe, or C:\WINDOWAPIUK32.EXE. This is my new HJT log. When this is done, can you recommend programs I should install to avoid this in the future? I truly appreciate all your help.
thanks
Robyn

A lot better. Make sure that you have no browser windows open as this could prevent the fix from working properly. Open HijackThis, scan and when complete, remove the following entries by checking the box to the left and clicking 'fixed checked':

O2 - BHO: CeresObj Class - {00000049-8F91-4D9C-9573-F016E7626484} - C:\WINDOWS\CERES.DLL
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ufnikreb] c:\windows\system\ufnikreb.exe

Exit HijackThis when done. Reboot into Safe Mode by tapping F8 after the BIOS has loaded. Using Windows Explorer, find and delete the following:

c:\windows\system\ufnikreb.exe

Exit Explorer and reboot into Normal Mode. Rescan with HijackThis and post a new log here.
