Hello daveai,
This is the HJT log sent from an uninfected computer.You asked for additional info re: status of not being able to access TC forum. I can reach the Home page on TomCoyote site, but when I click on forums to login, it won't open. Also can't reach other sites for Malware or Spyware removal. I have Spybot S& D.
Ad-Aware SE . I am unable to click on any links to the forum site through previous responses in emails also.
Sure appreciate any help.

Hello rml, Welcome to the forum.

Not going to be easy beings you can't get the infected PC here, but we'll see what we can do.

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.


1.Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2.Next, open Add/Remove Programs and remove if listed:
SpywareRemover



Next, launch Notepad (Start>All Programs>Accessories), and copy/paste all the blue REGEDIT below to it
Save in: Desktop
File Name: fixme.reg
Save as Type: All files
Click: Save

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify\zopenssl.dll]

On the desktop, doubleclick fix.reg and allow it to run. Let it merge.


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:

R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = \blank.htm
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe, C:\WINDOWS\system32\mgpin.exe
F2 - REG:system.ini: UserInit=C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,xcwmyro.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SpywareRemover] C:\Program Files\SpywareRemover\SpywareRemover.exe -boot
O20 - Winlogon Notify: zopenssl - C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\zopenssl.dll

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"


Delete these Files if listed:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\zopenssl.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\mgpin.exe


Open C:\Windows\Prefetch\ Delete ALL files in this folder.


Do this also if these Temp Folders are part of your OS.

Also in safe mode navigate to the C:\Windows\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.


Next navigate to the C:\Documents and Settings\(EVERY LISTED PROFILE USER)\Local Settings\Temp folder. Open the Temp folder and go to Edit > Select All then Edit > Delete to delete the entire contents of the Temp folder.

Finally go to Control Panel > Internet Options. On the General tab under "Temporary Internet Files" Click "Delete Files". Put a check by "Delete Offline Content" and click OK. Click on the Programs tab then click the "Reset Web Settings" button. Click Apply then OK.


Empty the Recycle Bin

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new HijackThis log file into this thread.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Hello LDTATE,
I was successful in following all of the previous instructions,however these entries were not present on the HJT log: RO-HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page=\blank.htm
04-HKLM\..\Run:[SpywareRemover] C:\Program Files\SpywareRemover\SpywareRemover.exe-boot
The other items , I checked to fix, but it would not delete the items. I tried several times.
Ad-Aware Se persistently finds this Registry Value: Software\Microsoftnt\currentversion\winlogon"Shell"(explorer.exe,C:windows\system32\mgpin.exe
It will not delete. I also tried to find this in Regedit, but could not locate it
The system is still corrupt,complete w/ pop-ups ,and still unable to access the forum.
Here is the current HJT log:

Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.


Download the trial version of Spy Sweeper from Here

Install it using the Standard Install option. (You will be asked for your e-mail address, it is safe to give it. If you receive alerts from your firewall, allow all activities for Spy Sweeper)

You will be prompted to check for updated definitions, please do so.
(This may take several minutes)

Click on Options > Sweep Options and check Sweep all Folders on Selected drives. Check Local Disc C. Under What to Sweep, check every box.

Click on Sweep and allow it to fully scan your system.If you are prompted to restart the computer, do so immediately. This is a necessary step to kill the infection!

When the sweep has finished, click Remove. Click Select All and then Next

From 'Results', select the Session Log tab. Click Save to File and save the log somewhere convenient.

Exit Spy Sweeper.

Empty Recycle Bin

Reboot and "copy/paste" a new HJT log as well as the Resullts from Spy Sweeper file into this thread.
Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Good deal. Just ran Ad-Aware SE personal w/ no registry values or keys identified, so does this mean that everything is cool? There are some back-ups in Sybot S & D. Should I delete these just to be sure? I honestly can't tell you how much help you've been. Thanks again, rml :D

Yes.

Good Job :thumbup:

Log looks good :D :thumbup: How is it running any issues?

Note: This will remove all previous Restore Points

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.

Restart your computer, turn it back on.

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

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.





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

I would also suggest you read this:
So how did I get infected in the first place?
