Hi! I have posted before and someone called Hans really helped me. Now I have something else annoying me! I am not using Explorer anymore (moved to Mozilla 2 days ago!) but I have a file called ISTBAR and istsvc that keeps on showing up in my Adaware scans and I am getting these popups (adult) that I know are caused by it.
Here is my log. Thanks for the help!!

Post #6
Hello again! I ran the utility but after scanning all my hard disk I got this message:
"Adware Istbar has not been found in your cumputer"
I want to add that before I ran this utility, I used AdawareSE and it told me that I have istbar and Dyfuca, but didn't remove it, so I don't understand why it cant be fixed. While I was doing all this an IE window popped up with the following site: http://www.rednova.com/images/iod/video/?src=int
As I said, Im not even using IE anymore. (Mozilla) Anyway, here's the log after I ran the utility. Please let me know what to do next! Regards, Karen

Hmmm… ya know… thats twice in a row that tool hasn't worked :scratch:

Tool might need to be updated… no biggie though… we can squash it :D

You may want to print this out for reference during the fix.

Download and install CCleaner. Don't run it yet.

Make sure no files are hidden. To do this:

1. Click Start.
2. Open My Computer.
3. Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
4. Select the View Tab.
5. Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
6. Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
7. Click Yes to confirm.
8. Click OK.

Hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete to bring up the Task Manager. End Task:

rhiamfgs.exe
istsvc.exe
ctlprov.exe

Run and scan with HijackThis. With all other browsers and windows closed, place a check beside the following and Fix:

You can, if you wish, fix the rest of the 016's as they will reinstall if needed.

Boot into Safe Mode. To do this:

1. Reboot your computer.
2. Tap the F8 button as your computer is booting to bring you to the Advanced Options Menu.
3. Select Safe Mode and press Enter.

Search for and delete these folders:

C:\Program Files\Kontiki
C:\Program Files\ActivShopper
C:\PROGRA~1\BFGTOO~1
C:\Program Files\ISTsvc
c:\dial-libremp3-uk

Search for and delete these files:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\Aomvbe.exe
C:\WINDOWS\rhiamfgs.exe
C:\WINDOWS\services.exe
C:\WINDOWS\sahbak.lnk
ctlprov.exe

NOTE!! When searching for C:\WINDOWS\services.exe, be sure not to delete C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe. That is a valid file and must not be deleted delete only C:\WINDOWS\services.exe.

Browse to your C:\Windows\Prefetch folder. Delete all the files in the folder, do not delete the folder itself. Empty your Recycle Bin. Run CCleaner.

Reboot Windows normally and post a new HijackThis log please.

Hello! Ok! I did all what you told me. The only 2 files I couldn't delete because I couldn't find them are: Aomvbe.exe and ctiprov.exe. Should I worry??

Thanks for posting the new log. Don't worry about those two files. Question… do you have NorthCode's ShackWave Flash Studio installed on your comuter?

Find this file:

C:\WINDOWS\NCLAUNCH.EXe

Right click on it. Choose properties. Click the Version tab. Let me know what it says for Vendor info please.

That file is a trial screen saver my daughter downloaded a few days ago. It doesn't have vendor info. but it says: "File launcher used by SWF Studio screensavers on Windows 2000 and XP"

OK… thats what I thought that file might be.

Run and scan with HijackThis. With all other browsers and window closed, place a check beside the following and Fix:

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [MSN MMISSENGER] mssmmspgr.exe

Boot to Safe Mode. Search for and delete this file if found:

mssmmspgr.exe

Browse to your C:\Windows\Prefetch folder. Delete all the files in the folder, do not delete the folder itself. Empty your Recycle Bin. Run CCleaner.

Reboot Windows normally and post a new HijackThis log please.

Hi! Just did what you told me. It didn't find the mssmmspgr.exe file. I haven't had any popups today! Am I cured??
