Hello Micah_6:8

Thank you for replying. As I have said my computer hass three hard drives that boot separately (i change the hard drive from CMOS), so I'm not stuck with only one infected hard drive.

I should inform you that the hijacking is mainly around two websites that I am trying to earn money with. The websites are www.studiotraffic.com and www.estrix.com. Whenever I go to these sites on my hijacked hard drive they go to a sex site. The sex site is not the same each time. I thought this might help

Here is my Hijack This Log:

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Run Hijack This!
Click "Do a systen scan only".
Then "check" the box to the left of these item(s):

O16 - DPF: {11111111-1111-1111-1111-222222222222} - ms-its:mhtlm:file://d:\foo.mht!http://vasvase.com/links//style.css::/open.exe

Then click "Fix checked" and close Hijack This!.

Reboot.

That new item may give us a clue to your vulnerabilities.

Although not on my list of "rogue" active-x CLSID's, that type of entry is considered a Bloodhound 6 virus by my antivirus software.

To guard against that type of infection, you can install Spywareguard and Spyware Blaster. They are free, and they can be downloaded here:

Javacool Software Downloads

Since nothing else is showing in the log, we need to check for things in places Hijack This! doesn't look.

Please download and run Spybot-Search&Destroy and Ad-Aware; they are the standard programs for finding and cleaning malware off your system. Here are links to both programs, and instructions for their use.

Get Spybot - Search & Destroy from Spybot Search and Destroy
(This is the NEW Version 1.4)
Get AdAware SE Personal from Lavasoft
(This is the NEW Build 1.6)

Download and install these programs if you don't already have them. If you do have them, make sure they are UPDATED AND CONFIGURED AS DESCRIBED here:

Configure Adaware

Configure Spybot

Reboot after running each program.

Try this online virus scan:

Trend-Micro Housecall

Choose "fix" or "clean".

Let it remove any infections found.

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new Hijack This! log file into this thread.

Are things any better? :unsure:
Post #8
Hello Micah_6:8 again

I have done all that the previous post said. There was Trojan in the system directory which I deleted. But the hijack is still there.

I have a web address that the hijack first goes to:
http://69.50.190.131/?to=dname&from=in

Download CWShredder.

CLOSE ALL WINDOWS (even this one) AND PROGRAMS!!!!

Double-click on CWShredder.exe to run it.

Click "Fix ->" and click "OK" at the prompt.

CWShredder will scan and clean your system of CWS files.

Click "Next->" and then "Exit".

Reboot.

Please go to this link:

Hijack This! Tutorial

Read and understand the tutorial on "How to restore items mistakenly deleted".

It may be a good thing to print that tutorial, just in case.

If you want a little practice before "the real thing", you can remove this from the log:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\QTTASK.EXE" -atboottime

Then try to restore it.

That is something we tell people is an "optional" fix. Your PC will function perfectly fine with or without that running.

So, if you want to test "restoring" items (that one above), do this:

1. Run Hijack This! and "fix" that "O4"item above.
2. Make a log file to be sure it's gone.
3. Restore it.
4. Make another log file to be sure the restore was successful.

When you feel you are ready, close all Internet Explorer windows, close whatever program it is you use to access the Internet, and run Hijack This! and "check" then "Fix checked" this item:

O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\VxD\MSTCP: NameServer = 195.95.218.5,85.255.112.13

Then reboot.

Try to get back online.

If you can't, restore that item, and let me know that you couldn't get online, and we'll pursue another course of action.

If you are able to get online, has that fixed your problem?
:unsure:

Hello Micah_6:8 I wanted to wait a couple of days to test the browser out, but before I used the CWSHEDDER I found that the hijacking suddenly stopped. So the problem is solved. Thank you very much

:) :thumbup:

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.
