Hello nickmod,

Glad you got through that!

I would like to see the another C:\rapport.txt in addition to other things. So please do the following:
You can skip this since you already have it downloaded
Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop.
http://siri.urz.free...mitfraudFix.zip
Extract all the files to your Destop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.



______________________________
.
Please download the trial version of Ewido anti-malware 3.5 from here:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

• Install Ewido anti-malware.
• When installing, under Additional Options uncheck Install background guard and Install scan via context menu.
• When you run Ewido for the first time, you could get a warning "Database could not be found!". Click Ok.
• The program will prompt you to update. Click the Ok button.
• 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 the Update Button.
• Click on Start.

The update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
Once finished updating, close Ewido.

If you are having problems with the updater, you can use this link to manually update ewido.
Ewido manual updates. Make sure to close Ewido before installing the update.
______________________________

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter



This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. When it is done, the results of the scan will be displayed and it will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.


IMPORTANT: Do NOT run any other options until you are asked to do so!

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Please post:
C:\rapport.txt

Now run this online scan using Internet Explorer:
Kaspersky Online Scanner from http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner

Next Click on Launch Kaspersky Online Scanner

You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.

• The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
• Once the files have been downloaded click on NEXT
• Now click on Scan Settings
• In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
• Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
• Standard
• Scan Options:
• Scan Archives
• Scan Mail Bases
• Click OK
• Now under select a target to scan:
• Select My Computer
• This will program will start and scan your system.
• The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run.
• Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
• Now click on the Save as Text button:
• Save the file to your desktop.

Copy and paste that information from Kapersky in your next post.

Blacklight

Download Blacklight Beta from here:
http://www.f-secure....light/try.shtml

• Hit I accept. It will take you to download page.
• Download blbeta.exe and save it to the Desktop.
• Once saved... double click blbeta.exe to install the program.
• Click accept agreement and Click scan
  This app too may fire off a warning from antivirus. Let the driver load.
  Wait for it to finish.
• If it displays any items...don't do anything with them yet. Just hit exit (close)
• It will drop a log on Desktop that starts with fsbl....big number

So please reply with the C:\rapport.txt, the information from Kapersky, and the contents of Blacklight Beta log starts with fsbl....big number.

Clean

Please print out or copy these instructions/tutorial to Notepad as the internet will not be (while in Safe Mode) available to you at certain points of the removal process. Make sure to work through all the Steps in the exact order in which they are listed below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before moving on with the fixes.

Reboot your computer in Safe Mode.

• If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power.
• Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
• Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.
• Ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
• Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.
• Login on your usual account.

Hello nickmod,

Your logs appear to be clean. I wanted to check about the 06 in the hijackthis log. If you or administrator DID NOT set this, then you should fix it.

These options should only appear if your administrator set them on purpose or if you used Spybots Home Page and Option Lock down features in the Mode

Scan with HijackThis. Place a check against each of the following to remove it if you or administrator DID NOT set:
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present
O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present
Close all windows or browsers except for Hijackthis. Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Please post (reply) with another hijackthis log.

How is your computer running? If everything seems fine, I will give you the final clean-up instructions.

[nickmod]

don't know if administrator set those, seems to be running fine

[Susan528]

Congratulations nickmod,

Your logs appear to be clean. Please do the following:
Be sure and get that latest Java Update

STEP 1.
======
Cleanmgr
To clean temporary files:

• Go > start > run and type cleanmgr and click OK
• Scan your system for files to remove.
• Make sure Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files and Recycle Bin are the only things checked.
• Click OK to remove those files.
• Click Yes to confirm deletion.

STEP 2.( Windows XP only)
======
Prefetch Folder
Open C:\Windows\Prefetch\
Delete All files in this folder but not the Prefetch folder

STEP 3.
======
System Restore for Windows XP
Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove infected files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected)

• 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.

STEP 4.
======
DON’T BECOME OVERCONFIDENT WITH ANTIVIRUS APPLICATIONS INSTALLED!!!

http://forum.malware...39eba6ea0b5e8ee

Stay up to date on security patches and be extremely wary of clicking on links and attachments that arrive unbidden in instant messages and e-mail.

"The number one thing the majority of the malicious code we're seeing now does is disable or delete anti-virus and other security software," Dunham said. "In a lot of cases, once the user clicks on that attachment, it's already too late."

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

• Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.
  
  
• Test your Firewall - Please test your firewall and make sure it is working properly.
  Test Firewall
  
  
• Visit Microsoft's Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit Windows Updates regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
  
  
• Install Ad-Aware - Install and download Ad-Aware. ou should also scan your computer with program on a regular basis just as you would an antivirus software in conjunction with Spybot.
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  Using Ad-aware to remove Spyware, Malware, & Hijackers from Your Computer
  
  
• Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will added a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware
  
  
  
• Update your Java.
  Java Software Java Runtime Environment Version 5.0 Update 7
  http://www.java.com/...load/manual.jsp
  
  
• Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly. Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
  
  
• More info on how to prevent malware you can also find here (By Tony Klein)

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Thank you for allowing me to assist you.

Susan

[nickmod]

completed all tasks, just curious if i need to keep ewido, fixit, smitfraud, and blacklight programs on my desktop, just couldn't update that jave, couldn't find page. Thanks again immensely for you help i'd still be looking at a black screen or that pop-up without your help. So should i run fixit on: O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions present O6 - HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control Panel present and should i install bullettproofsoft bps security console and or spywareblaster. thanks. john

[Susan528]

Hello nickmod, I am glad we could help. You can delete the smitfraud,blacklight, fixit. You can delete ewido too or wait untill the trial runs out and then delete it. I would fix the 06's (if you or administrator did not set it). I am not familiar with bullettproofsoft bps security console but I do use the spywareblaster. Spywareblaster is free.

[nickmod]

Thanks again for your guidance, it was invaluable. I'll have to support with a donation. Funny that you're in lower Alabama, I'm in Chattanooga, TN. Good luck this fall, football season

[Susan528]

Chattanooga is a neat place. Famous for moon pies! We celebrate Mardi Gras down here with parades and people sometimes throw moon pies from the floats. We enjoyed the aquarium and I heard they have added another building. We took the kids to Ruby Falls and Rock City. Had a wonderful time a few years ago. We stayed in a railroad car a couple of nights. I would not mind going back. I should keep up with football. I went to the University of Oklahoma so I am not a true Alabama fan. I laugh at the rivalry between Auburn and Alabama here. It can get very serious. Take care, Susan
