Hi,
I did everything ok, I think.

The text for dir C:\WINDOWS\system32\n?tdde.exe /a h > files.txt
notepad files.txt was;

Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 1808-BEED

Directory of C:\WINDOWS\system32

29/08/2002 10:41 105,984 netdde.exe
08/02/2005 14:37 417,792 n?tdde.exe
2 File(s) 523,776 bytes

Directory of C:\Documents and Settings\new\Desktop



The homepage still cannot be changed from; http://www.hotoffers.info/246/
ALSO, when I reboot and the desktop is just about to appear, there is now an error messgae "windows cannot find C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSBL.EXE
I then have to click ok in order to continue loading to the desktop. This has happened each time I rebooted, since deleting the msbl.exe file.

The new log is now;

ALSO,
This message keeps coming up in a grey box "message from security monitor to windows useruser, buffer overrun in messenger service allows remote code execution, virus infection". It tells me to go to http://www.updatepatch.info to download a patch. Can I stop this pop up from coming up every 10 minutes?

Hi mick1,

1) Please allow Microsoft to do its update to correct the vulnerability.

2)I would also like you to download and run a free trial version of an anti-trojan program called Trojan Hunter: Trojan Hunter . Let it scan your whole system and remove anything it finds.

REBOOT your system.

Take note of anything it says it cannot delete.

3) Post back a new log with any comments from Trojan Hunter.


Regards,

Trevuren

Hi mick1,

C:\PROGRA~1\ANTI-L~1\ALIE\alhlp.exe I am composing my fix around the fact that this item is not necessary. If it is, just disregard all entries that refer to it.

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order in which they are mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes.

Now let's do some work on your log:

First we need to make all files and folders VISIBLE:

Go to start>control panel>folder options>view (tab)
*choose to "show hidden files and folders,"
*uncheck the "hide protected operating system files" and the "hide extensions for know file types" boxes.
*Close the window with ok
*All hidden files will now be visible

Close all browser windows and RUN HijackThis.
. Click the SCAN button to produce a log.
. Click the Config button located in the lower right hand corner of the HijackThis window.
. When the new screen opens, find and click the Miscellaneous Tools button.
. Then choose the Open Process Manager button.
. From the list of processes, hilight the following item by clicking it, then DELETEit by clicking the KILL button:

C:\PROGRA~1\ANTI-L~1\ALIE\alhlp.exe

Once all items have been KILLED, click the Back button which will return you to the HijackThis main window. Now place a check mark beside each one of the following Mandatory items.

R3 - URLSearchHook: transURL Class - {C7EDAB2E-D7F9-11D8-BA48-C79B0C409D70} - C:\WINDOWS\System32\SEARCH~1.DLL (file missing)
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\System32\msbl.exe
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {0E1230F8-EA50-42A9-983C-D22ABC2EED3B} - (no file)
O16 - DPF: {43331111-1111-1111-1111-611111195622} - file://c:\ex.cab

Now with all the items selected, delete them by clicking the FIX checked button. Close the HijackThis window and Reboot Your System in Safe Mode

How to use the F8 method to Start Your Computer in Safe Mode

*Restart the computer.
*as soon as BIOS is loaded begin tapping the F8 key until the Advanced Options menu appears.
*Use the arrow keys to select the Safe mode menu item
*press Enter.

Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and delete them (if they are present):

FOLDER (with all its content)

C:\PROGRAM Files\ANTI-L~1

Exit Explorer, and REBOOT BACK INTO NORMAL MODE

Finally,RUN Hijackthis again and produce a new HJT log. Post it in the forum so we can check how everytjhing looks now.

Regards,

Trevuren

Hi mick 1,

There is only 1 probable problem left and that is:C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe

Notepad.exe, the one we know, is located in C:\Windows\system32\notepad.exe so this one is generally considered bad.

Please go here, Wilders, download and run the Rapid Blaster Killer 1.61 file.

Produce and Post a new HJT log.

Hi mick 1,

Congratulations, your new log shows that your SYSTEM IS CLEAN

There are a few things you must do once you are completely clean:

1. Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files from the backup that Windows makes as no program is able to clean those files:

TO DISABLE SYSTEM RESTORE
1. Right-click "My Computer", and then left click "Properties".
2. Left click on "System Restore Tab"
3. Check box beside "Turn Off System Restore"
4. Left click on "Apply"

TO ENABLE SYSTEM RESTORE
1.Remove check mark from "Turn Off System Restore"
2.Click on "Apply"

2. Another cleanup that will help is to go to Start>Programs>Acccessories>System Tools> Disk Cleanup and put a check mark beside all the entries in the disk cleanup window that ask you what you want to clean. Clean all hard drives and all files. This will get rid of any malware that is hiding in the temporary folders.

3. Make sure that all are gone, by checking the folders that the Temporary Internet Files and Temp files are stored in. To do so use Control Panel > Internet Options(or right click the IE icon on the desktop and choose Properties). Click Delete Files on the General Tab - place a check in the Delete all offline content box, then 'Clear History' and then press OK (or go direct to the C:\Documents and Settings\userprofilename\Local Settings\Temp\ folder) and
C:\Documents and Settings\userprofilename\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\)

4. Empty your Recycle Bin

5. Double Check the following folders to make sure they are empty:
C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\your account\Temporary Internet Files
Delete all the files in (and any subfolders of) the C:\Windows\Temp\ folder (or go direct to the C:\Documents and Settings\userprofilename\Local Settings\Temp\ folder) and C:\Documents and Settings\userprofilename\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\)

6. You may find that you have to repeat the steps a couple of times.

7.Finally, Re-hide your System Files and Folders to prevent any future accidents.


Here are some tips to reduce the potential for spyware infection in the future:

I strongly recommend installing the following applications:
  • Spywareblaster <= SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed.
  • Spywareguard <= SpywareGuard offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
  • How to use Ad-Aware to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Ad-Aware.
  • How to use Spybot to remove Spyware <= If you suspect that you have spyware installed on your computer, here are instructions on how to download, install and then use Spybot. Similar to Ad-Aware, I strongly recommend both to catch most spyware.
To protect yourself further:
  • IE/Spyad <= IE/Spyad places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (Cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • MVPS Hosts file <= The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your coputer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer
  • Google Toolbar <= Get the free google toolbar to help stop pop up windows.
And also see TonyKlein's good advice
So how did I get infected in the first place? (My Favorite)


Regards,

Trevuren
