Post #1
hey there, this mess jumped on me last thurs. night. am running pcdoctor antivirus (latest edition, latest updates) and also downloaded the tool you advised another fellow poster with the same problem. the tool i downloaded says "nothing found". pcdoctor antivirus completely overlooks the virus (returns scans "nothing found"). the problem is there though. my computer freezes up, adultfriendfinder, etc. pop ups. any more suggestions?? :scra :rant2:

Hello harleyrider51, welcome to the TC Forum.

Important: Do this before any fix.

Please put your HijackThis in it's own folder, (I create a new folder in C:\ named HJT).
You can do a Right Click on any open area on the desktop, New> Folder, then rename the folder HJT.

Go to where your HijackThis is and Right Click on HijackThis.exe, select Cut, then open the new folder you just created (HJT) Right Click in the folder and select paste.

The reason we do this is Hijackthis creates backup files just in case you'd need to restore one and we'll be cleaning out the temp files.



After the above:



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.
The ewido security suite is now known as ewido anti-malware. If additional information is needed, click A Quick Guide.
  • Please download and install ewido anti-malware v3.5. If ewido finds something that you KNOW is legitimate (watch for alerts that have the word "Heuristic" in them - these may actually be false positives) select "none" as the action. DO NOT check "Perform action with all infections." If you are unsure of an entry, select "none" for the time being.
  • When installing, under "Additional Options" uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".
  • Launch ewido by double-clicking the "e" icon on your desktop.
  • The program will now go to the main screen.
  • You will need to update ewido to the latest definition files.
    • On the left hand side of the main screen click "Update".
    • Then click on "Start Update".
    • The update will begin and a progress bar will show the updates being installed. If you are having problems with the updater, click Update ewido.
    • After the update finishes, the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful".
  • After the updates are installed, click on Scanner and select "Settings".
    • Under the bottom section "What to Scan?" select "Scan every file".
    • Select "OK" and you will return to scanning options.
  • Click on "Complete System Scan". This can take a while to complete so please be patient.
  • While the scan is in progress, you will be prompted to clean the first infected file it finds. Choose "clean", then CHECK or UNCHECK "Perform action on all infections" and click "OK". Note: You will have to watch the scan all the way through and delete items manually.
  • After the scan has completed, ewido will create a report.
  • There will be a button located on the bottom of the screen named "Save report". Click "Save report" [to your desktop].
  • Exit ewido anti-malware when done.
  • Note: ewido is a free trial product for 14 days. Since ewido is a trial version, the realtime guard and automatic update will stop functioning after 14 days (which is the reason we uncheck them during installation). You can use ewido as an on-demand scanner (recommended) but you will have to manually update the definition file each time you scan by clicking on “Update” and “Start Update”.
Please post the contents of C:\vundofix.txt, the ewido anti-malware log and a new HijackThis log.

Important: Do this before any fix.

Please put your HijackThis in it's own folder, (I create a new folder in C:\ named HJT).
You can do a Right Click on any open area on the desktop, New> Folder, then rename the folder HJT.

Go to where your HijackThis is and Right Click on HijackThis.exe, select Cut, then open the new folder you just created (HJT) Right Click in the folder and select paste.

The reason we do this is Hijackthis creates backup files just in case you'd need to restore one and we'll be cleaning out the temp files.



After the above:

I suggest you do this:

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.


Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.


Use Add/Remove Programs and remove: If listed.
WildTangent


Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only

on start-up, it pulled several updates (pctools virus, various updates) and was a little slow because pctools was trying to start a scan. other than that, it seems normal as of right now. won't know for sure until a do a little surfing or go to my college course site. :thumbup:

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on. Both are available below.

Safe Surfing. :D

So how did I get infected in the first place?

:D :rofl: My computer is working fine!! It "seems" a little slow but that could be my imagination. The good news, no pop-ups, no adultfriendfinder, no winfixer, no winantiviruspro, no crashes, no resetting. It appears to be extremely stable. I also downloaded the free firewall (thanks :P ). I surfed a little, went to my college class website; everything appears to be good. Last question - - - now I have a desktop full of icons (vundofix, reportscan, hjt, etc.). How many of these should I keep. Thanks guys, harleyrider51

You can get rid of them. Make sure you use Add/Remove Programs and remove from there if listed.

Make sure you've done this first so you're not deleting any system files.

Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Check "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, Uncheck "Show hidden files and folders."
Check "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.
