Here's a little more info on problems: the mouse/computer freezes every few minutes. Extraordinarily frustrating. Would really appreciate your help. Thanks again.



Hi - just downloaded and ran Hijack This. Please tell me what to remove. Thanks!

You are running HJT from a temporary file or desktop we will be cleaning out all of you temp. files latter you will need to make a new folder for HijackThis. Instructions can be found here.

Please set your system to show
all files; please see here if you're unsure how to do this.

Close all programs leaving only HijackThis running. Place a check against each of the following,

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Spyware Cleaner] "C:\PROGRAM FILES\SPYWARE CLEANER\SPYWARECLEANER.Exe" /boot
O4 - HKCU\..\RunServices: [Spyware Cleaner] "C:\PROGRAM FILES\SPYWARE CLEANER\SPYWARECLEANER.Exe" /boot
O16 - DPF: {F461205D-ABDC-42FE-B2E2-AFD4600B905E} (MASHControl Class) - http://www.amiuptoda...,0,0,7/mash.cab

Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.
[*]Reboot into Safe Mode: please see here if you are not sure how to do this.
Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders, and delete them:

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager
C:\PROGRAM FILES\SPYWARE CLEANER
Exit Explorer, and reboot as normal afterwards.

Post back a fresh HijackThis log and we will take another look.

[little eagle]

Log looks clean. I see that you are running msconfig in /auto mode which means that you may have selectively removed some items in the past from the startup procedure. This can be bad if they are malware, so we would like you to reenable those startup entries by doing the following: Please click on start, then run, and type msconfig and then press enter. When the window opens click on the startup tab and make sure there are checkmarks in every entry. Then press ok until you are out of the program. If it asks to reboot, do not reboot. Now please create a new Hijackthis Log and post it as a reply.

Yes, some of the start-up items had been unchecked since there are sooo many. Here's the new log with everything checked:

Spybot S&D lets you kill the 04's, the startups. Start Spybot click mode at the top left,
make sure that advanced mode is checked. Then click on tools on the lower left.
Then system startup, to the right is a double arrow bar click it to expand.
Now clicking on a value you will get a description of the command line. Removing the green
check mark will stop the startup, should you decide that you need or want it back just
replace the check mark. Restarting your PC will complete the change.
I would Remove the check marks from the ones listed below.

Other than that it looks clean.

Please follow a few tips to remain malware free:

Make sure you keep your Windows OS current by visiting Windows update
occasionaly to download and install any critical updates and service packs. With out these you are leaving the backdoor open.

Also download, install and keep updated- Antivirus Software (and use only one):
Free for home users:
avast! 4 Home Edition Download
AVG free version 7.0 AVG free version v6.0 updates ended 12/31/04
AntiVir Personal Edition

Adjust your browser settings: Change your(active x) settings in IE. With IE open go to tools, internet options, security tab. Click on the internet globe, then custom level. Set the first option "download signed active x controls" to prompt, the next two to disable. Read more:
Internet Explorer Privacy & Security Settings
Working with Internet Explorer 6 Security
Many exploits are directed at Internet Explorer, you dont have to use it. Try a different browser:
Like Firefox,
And Thunderbird for controling spam in your e-mail.

Install a firewall. A firewall will control what comes in from the internet and what leaves your computer to the internet. A firewall will also alert you when a application trys to connect to the internet from your computer, this is a good way to catch crapware or trojans, trying to connect out bound from your computer- whats that and why does it need a internet connection? You can deny it access it until more investigation is done. Zone Alarm is a free and easy to use firewall, that will provide in and outbound protection. Microsoft XP firewall only provides inbound protection, but is not as robust as third party firewalls, Be sure to run only >one< firewall.If you use another, be sure to disable XP's built in firewall.A inexpensive NAT hardware router with SPI (firewall)would be even better,along with a software firewall.
Zone Alarm
Kerio Personal Firewall
Outpost Firewall

Download, install and update before using:(if these are constantly finding malware, then you need to make some changes)
Ad-Aware SE Personal edition
Spybot Search and destroy
Becarful with spyware "removers and scanners"-- there are many "rogue/suspect" programs that "claim to remove" spyware.

Other programs to consider:
SpywareBlaster
IE-SPYAD
AntiTrojan software to fill in the gap:
a2 free
Ewido Security Suite
Trojan Hunter (30 day trial version)

Watch what you download, and where you download it from.
Many programs come bundled with "extra" crapware you may not want. Make sure you know what it is you will be downloading and installing. Visit the makers website, learn more about the program, Does the program you want come bundled with other "3rd party" programs? What do the 3rd party programs do? Will they deliver ads? Track your surfing habits?.You may be installing more than you think, Read the EULA agreement, you know that paragraph of stuff you "agree to" before the software installs? Stay away from warez and crack sites. Becarful what you download from file sharing networks.If you are not sure, scan it with your Antivirus app. A small file (in KB) is probably not what you think it is. Some p2p clients also install 3rd party stuff you probably dont want.

SpyBot no longer works for me. I tried downloading it again and it won't load. Any idea why or is there other software I can use to get rid of these 04s? Thanks, Suzy

[sajacks]

I went to the SpyBot site and found out how to completely uninstall the old version (it didn't show up in Add/Remove Programs). I was then able to reinstall it and will now do as you suggest and re-post. Thanks again, Suzy

When you get spybot up and running activate teatimer.
