Post #1
I started getting "winfixer" popups on my computer about a week ago and did not realize it was a trojan. I have run brand new copies of adaware and spybot sd in safe mode and did a full scan with Norton. I also ran xoft and a couple of other programs in desperation. I have not had any popups for awhile, but downloads are taking forever and my computer does not seem to want to log off. So, I think either it is still there or there is somthing else. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated. Here is my HJT log… Thanks, Elmas

Hello Elmas and welcome to TomCoyote forums. If you still need help, let proceed like this.

1) C:\Program Files\Audible\Bin\adhelper.exe <<< did you install this, is it a valid program.

Thanks to Atribune and any others who helped with this fix

2) Please download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.
  • Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.
  • Click the Scan for Vundo button.
  • Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.
  • You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click YES
  • Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.
  • When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click OK.
  • Turn your computer back on.
  • Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and a new HiJackThis log.
(wait until you are done to post the logs)

3) You have ewido onboard. Open the program and choose update, once it is updated then click scanner. Choose complete system scan and allow ewido to remove anything it locates unless you know it is not bad. Save the ewido scan report, I must see it.
4) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:


R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page =
O3 - Toolbar: CM Band - {159C2E51-9823-11D2-8DDC-D84A1B4ACD4D} - C:\Program Files\Crystalys media\cm.dll

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

C:\Windows\Prefetch\ >>> delete everything in this folder (NOT THE FOLDER)
Prefetch info: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_…refetch-XP.html

Click Start > Run > type "cleanmgr" without the quotes then OK. Allow the program to run and remove anything Windows locates.

Post the vundofix.txt, ewido scan report and a new HJT log in this same thread. There may be more to do?

Thanks…pskelley

Well, for starters, when I ask a question like this…you can give me some kind of answer…Thanks.

1) C:\Program Files\Audible\Bin\adhelper.exe <<< did you install this, is it a valid program.


We still have some trash to remove, do this:

Download, update, configure and run these two programs: http://tomcoyote.org/aawsb.php
The newest version of Ad-aware is 1.06 and Spybot 1.04. Even if you have these programs, use the link to get the newest version, update and configure them as in the link. Run Spybot first, reboot then run Ad-aware. Both programs back up what they remove so delete anything the programs say should be removed.

Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O2 - BHO: CM BHO - {6379A99A-9102-446C-A837-0623E1810D75} - C:\Program Files\Crystalys media\cm.dll
O3 - Toolbar: CM Band - {159C2E51-9823-11D2-8DDC-D84A1B4ACD4D} - C:\Program Files\Crystalys media\cm.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CMLoader] rundll32.exe "c:\program files\crystalys media\cm.dll",MakeInjection

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

RIGHT Click on Start then click on Explore. Locate and delete these items:

c:\program files\crystalys media\ >>> folder

C:\Windows\Prefetch\ >>> delete everything in this folder (NOT THE FOLDER)
Prefetch info: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_…refetch-XP.html

Empty the recycle bin and post a new HJT log. Respond to any questions I have asked and make any comment you feel will help.

Thanks…Phil

Hi Phil,

Sorry for missing the question. I don't remember specifically installing it, but I think it is part of the audible program from audible.com.

Uninstalled Adaware and spybot and reinstalled the latest. Ran them and fixed what they found. Ran HJT and elimnated the listed items.

For… Enable hidden files&folders..reverse the process when finished.
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html
not sure if I do this throught HJT or what. Did a search with hidden files enabled and did not find it. How do I do this???

Deleted crystalys and emptied the prefetch.

Have not had a winfixer popup since doing this.

Thanks again for all your help.

Here is the current HJT log.

Good morning Elmas, Let me first say good job, your HJT log is clean :thumbup: a couple of other things and you will be good to go.

1) I missed the fact that your HJT on the Desktop and has no folder. I suggest you move HJT the logs and backups into one. My suggestion is here: C:\HJT\HijackThis.exe. Here are some instructions if you need them, this is just to keep stuff from getting deleted or lost: http://russelltexas.com/malware/createhjtfolder.htm

2) http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html#5 <<< for your O/S, it appears you did it right. The malware writers know Windows hides certain files and folders for protection. They hide their stuff also and often folks don't know this and can't find the bad files. You have successfully deleted the bad files :thumbup:

3) Since your HJT log is clean, here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:
http://boards.cexx.org/viewtopic.php?t=957
http://russelltexas.com/malware/allclear.htm
http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic.php?t=14
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topict2520.html

4) Bad stuff can get in the System Restore files and if you need them for a valid reason, back on your computer. Do this to get clean System Restore files:
Turn off System Restore.
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
Check Turn off System Restore.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

Reboot.

Turn ON System Restore,
On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
Click Properties.
Click the System Restore tab.
UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
Click Apply, and then click OK.

Safe surfing…Phil :wavey:

Thanks…pskelley
