Arrrgh. Thanks Micah, you have my attention. I failed to notice that the topic now had 2 pages, with the "wont work" message being the 1st thing on the second page! anyway, after 12 days, you do have my attention. I ran the stuff that didn't work and failed to find any sfax.dll files or folders. So, on to the next fix please and thank you again for your assistance. J

Download/install APM

Run APM

Click on each item in the upper window, then look in the lower window, and check to see which processes are using sfax.dll

Post back letting me know which ones are using that DLL.

Also post a new Hijack This! log file.

Micah,

This is the only process found that had the sfax.dll module. I still can't find the sfax.dll file anywhere though!

Step 1:

Please download Process Explorer by Systernals from:

Process Explorer

Also download/unzip KillBox by Option^Explicit from:

Killbox.zip

Step 2:

Download this file and save it to your desktop:

FixVundo Registry File

Step 3:

Print out the following instructions as you will not have Internet Access for the rest of this fix.

Reboot in "safe" mode.

The rest of this fix must be done in safe mode.

Unzip Process Explorer and double click on procexp.exe

In the top section of the Process Exlporer screen double-click on winlogon.exe to bring up the winlogon.exe properties screen. Click on the Threads tab at the top.

Once you see this screen click on each instance of sfax.dll once and then click the kill button.

After you have killed all of the sfax.dll under winlogon click OK.

If you see any .ini or .bak files with either the same name or the file name in reverse (xafs.ini or xafs.bak), kill them as well.

Next run Hijack This! and place a check beside each of the following.

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/…/search/ie.html

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/…//www.yahoo.com

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = http://red.clientapps.yahoo.com/customize/…//www.yahoo.com

O2 - BHO: MSEvents Object - {B8B55274-0F9A-41E5-9067-A3539BD9E860} - C:\WINDOWS\inf\sfax.dll

O20 - Winlogon Notify: sfax - C:\WINDOWS\inf\sfax.dll

Now click Fix checked and close HijackThis.

Now double-click on the vundo.reg file that you saved on your desktop earlier and allow it to merge with the registry.

Step 4:

On the desktop make a new text file.

In there place this entry:

C:\WINDOWS\inf\sfax.dll

On succeeding lines place the "full path names" of the "reverse named .ini or .bak" files noted earler:

Examples:

C:\WINDOWS\inf\xafs.ini
C:\WINDOWS\inf\xafs.bak


Then copy the all file names in the text file to the clipboard by highlighting them and pressing C (hold the key down, then press C):

Close the text file.

Double click on Killbox.exe and then check the Delete on reboot button.

In Killbox, click File (in the upper left of Killbox), and choose "Paste from Clipboard".

Click the red dot with the white X in it, in the upper right of Killbox, then click "Yes", and "Yes" again.

After the reboot, "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread. :)

Items you may wish to consider to harden your defenses against future infections:

Read "How did I get infected in the first place?"

Download/install IE-Spyad

IE-Spyad puts over 4000 known malicious web sites into IE's "restricted zone" to help prevent you from getting infected.

Check your browser settings at Qualsys.com

A series of "tests" (and suggested fixes) to help tweak IE's settings to help prevent infections when surfing the web.

Follow safe Internet practices:

1. Keep your virus definitions up to date, and scan your system regularly.

2. Don't open email, or download attachments from unrecognized email addresses.

3. Be careful when downloading email attachments, EVEN FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW! Many virii, worms, and trojans infect a persons system then immeadiately spread themselves to the people in the infected persons addressbook via email attachments.

4. Be careful downloading files from the Internet. Scan all downloaded files with a reliable UP-TO-DATE antivirus program. Scan "zip" files BEFORE unzipping, and scan all unzipped files BEFORE USING THEM.

5. Keep your Windows and IE current with all the latest patches and updates.
