Hello waggonet and welcome to TomCoyote. :wavey:

I couldn't find any information on this file. Do you know what it is? Right click on the file and choose 'properties', than on the 'version' tab note what the "Company" and "Version" are.

C:\Program Files\Dnzt\Zughmte.exe

If you still are unsure what this file is, please submit it to the following links for a scan.
http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus
http://virusscan.jotti.org/


Step 1
Open Task Manager (ctrl+alt+delete) and end process on the following:
These are not bad but will prevent the fix from working.
gcasServ.exe
gcasDtServ.exe


Step 2
Open HijackThis, run a scan, then check the following:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar,LinksFolderName =

Optional items to check with HijackThis for improved performance.
You are running MyWebSearch (or MyBar). This is not technically malware, but it is thought to be bad by many experts and it will bring malware with it. I recommend that you remove it with Add/Remove Programs.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [MyWebSearch Email Plugin] C:\PROGRA~1\MyWay\bar\1.bin\mwsoemon.exe

Resource hog that launches common MS Office components to help speed up the launch of Office programs. Some users claim there's no difference with or without it but it isn't required anyway.
O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE

With all other programs and browsers closed, click fix checked.


Step 3
Go to Add/Remove Programs and remove the following items (if found):
Optional removals (explained above)
My Search Bar
MyWay Speed Bar
My Web Search Bar


Step 4
Please set your computer to show all files.

* Double-click the My Computer icon on the Windows desktop.
* Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options. Select the View Tab.
* Uncheck the "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" option.
* Under the Hidden files and folders heading select "Show hidden files and folders".
* On the View tab, uncheck the "Hide file extensions for known file types" option.
* Click Yes to confirm. Click OK.

You will need to reverse this process when all steps are done.


Step 5
Please delete the following files/folders:

C:\WINNT\system32\azvabuw.exe
C:\WINNT\sixtypopsix.exe

If you have any problem deleting these files, reboot into Safe Mode and try again.
Reboot the computer into Safe Mode

* Restart the computer. When you see the black-and-white Starting Windows bar at the bottom of the screen, hold the F8 key. The Windows 2000 Advanced Options Menu appears.
* Ensure that the Safe mode option is selected. In most cases, it is the first item in the list and is selected by default. (If it is not selected, use the arrow keys to select it.)
* Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode. This can take a few minutes.


Step 6
Reboot normally and scan with HijackThis. Post the new log as a reply to this thread.
Please let us know of any complications and how the computer is behaving.

This is for your office computer.

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected.)

1. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2. On the Performance tab, click File System, or press ALT+F.
3. On the Troubleshooting tab, put a check mark in the 'Turn Off System Restore' check box.
4. Click OK twice, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.
5. Repeat steps 1 - 3, this time clearing the box beside 'Turn Off System Restore'


Now that everything is fixed, I suggest that you get these programs to help keep the computer clean:

Spyware Blaster - Blocks bad ActiveX items from installing on your computer.
SpywareGuard - Real-time protection from spyware installation attempts
ie-spyad - Puts over 8,000 bad URLs into your restricted sites for Internet Explorer.
Google Toolbar - Blocks many unwanted pop-ups in Internet Explorer.
Firefox - Safer alternative to the Internet Explorer web browser.

AVG AntiVirus - Free antivirus program if you currently are not using one.
ZoneAlarm - Free firewall program if you currently are not using one.

Update these regularly.

You may also want to read "How did I get infected in the first place" to learn how to better secure your computer.

Be sure to keep Windows and your Anti-virus updated.

And for your home computer.

Step 1
Please delete the version of HijackThis you have now. There is a new version out which you can get here. Save the file to your desktop.

Double click HijackThis_sfx.exe and select Unzip. When done click "OK".
Close the WinZip self Extractor window.

Navigate to C:\Program Files\HijackThis and double click HijackThis.exe to use the program.


Step 2
Open HijackThis, run a scan, then check the following:

O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FFF5092F-7172-4018-827B-FA5868FB0478} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\azesearch.ocx

Optional items to check with HijackThis for improved performance.
Resource hog that launches common MS Office components to help speed up the launch of Office programs. Some users claim there's no difference with or without it but it isn't required either way.
O4 - Global Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE

With all other programs and browsers closed, click fix checked.


Step 3
Go to Add/Remove Programs and remove the following items (if found):

Windupdates
Admilli Service


Step 4
Please set your computer to show all files.

* Double-click My Computer.
* Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
* Click the View tab.
* Clear "Hide file extensions for known file types."
* Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
* Clear "Hide protected operating system files."
* Click Apply, and then click OK.

You will need to reverse this process when all steps are done.


Step 5
Please delete the following folder:

C:\Program Files\Admilli Service

If you have any problem deleting this folder, reboot into Safe Mode (tap F8 during bootup, use arrow keys to select Safe Mode, then hit 'enter') and try again.


Step 6
Reboot normally and scan with HijackThis. Post the new log as a reply to this thread.
Please let us know of any complications and how the computer is behaving.
