Hello maddux_91 and welcome to TomCoyote. :wavey:

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

C:\WINDOWS\gtmr.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\k23gaena.exe

If you still are unsure what these files are, please submit them to the following links for a scan.
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus

Post a fresh HijackThis log as a reply to this thread. Include anything you could find on the two files above.

Anything else needed?
Post #6
Did you fix the entries or delete the files I had you submit? They are not showing in the new log.


Step 1
Open HijackThis, run a scan, then check the following:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = c:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\System\panels\blank.htm
O16 - DPF: {15AD6789-CDB4-47E1-A9DA-992EE8E6BAD6} - http://static.windupdates.com/cab/MediaAcc…e/bridge-c8.cab

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


Step 2
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 3
Please delete the following files:

C:\WINDOWS\gtmr.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\k23gaena.ini
C:\WINDOWS\system32\k23gaena.exe

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


Step 4
Reboot normally and scan with HijackThis. Post the new log as a reply to this thread.
Please let us know of any complications you had and how the computer is behaving.
Post #7
I am at a loss to find out where k23gaena.exe went, but qtmr.exe was deleted by Spybot as n-case, I have found the back-up and I sent that in:

Attention!

Your new log appears clean. :)

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 System Restore tab, put a check mark in the 'Turn Off System Restore' check box.
3. Click OK, and then click Yes.
4. Restart the computer.
5. Repeat steps 1 - 2, this time clearing the box beside 'Turn Off System Restore', click 'OK'.


I suggest that you get these programs to help keep the computer clean:

Spyware Blaster - Blocks bad ActiveX items from installing on your computer. Spyware Blaster runs silently in the background.
ie-spyad - Puts over 12,000 bad URLs into your restricted sites for Internet Explorer.
Firefox - 'Safer' alternative to the Internet Explorer web browser.
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.
