Hi floody:
Lets take care of the basics first.

Please print, or copy and paste this text into a notepad file and place it on your desktop, to review as you work. Please read this text, before beginning and follow the directions closely, in the order provided.

First, lets do a bit of cleaning, to make the Ewido report managable.

Clean your Cache and Cookies in IE:
  • Close all instances of Outlook Express and Internet Explorer
  • Go to Control Panel > Internet Options > General tab
  • Click the "Delete Cookies" button
  • Next to it, Click the "Delete Files" button
  • When prompted, place a check in: "Delete all offline content", click OK
Clean your Cache and Cookies in Firefox (In case you also have Firefox installed):
  • Go to Tools > Options.
  • Click Privacy in the menu on the left side of the Options window.
  • Click the Clear button located to the right of each option (History, Cookies, Cache).
  • Click OK to close the Options window
    Alternatively, you can clear all information stored while browsing by clicking Clear All.
    A confirmation dialog box will be shown before clearing the information.
Clean other Temporary files + Recycle bin
  • Go to start > run and type: cleanmgr and click ok.
  • Let it scan your system for files to remove.
  • Make sure Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files, and Recycle Bin are the only things checked.
  • Press OK to remove them.

    Please Note: This is a new version of Ewido Anti-Malware. It has a new set of setup and running instructions. Please delete any other versions and use the setup and usage directions shown below.

    Download ewido anti-spyware from HERE and save that file to your desktop.
    This is a 30 day trial of the program
    1. Once you have downloaded ewido anti-spyware, locate the icon on the desktop and double-click it to launch the set up program.
    2. Once the setup is complete you will need run ewido and update the definition files.
    3. On the main screen select the icon "Update" then select the "Update now" link.
      • Next select the "Start Update" button, the update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
    4. Once the update has completed select the "Scanner" icon at the top of the screen, then select the "Settings" tab.
    5. Once in the Settings screen click on "Recommended actions" and then select "Quarantine".
    6. Under "Reports"
      • Select "Automatically generate report after every scan"
      • Un-Select "Only if threats were found"

        • Close ewido anti-spyware, Do Not run a scan at this time.

        Reboot your computer into SafeMode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight SafeMode then hit enter.
        IMPORTANT: Do not open any other windows or programs while ewido is scanning, it may interfere with the scanning proccess:
      • Lauch ewido-anti-spyware by double-clicking the icon on your desktop.
      • Select the "Scanner" icon at the top and then the "Scan" tab then click on "Complete System Scan".
      • ewido will now begin the scanning process, be patient this may take a little time.
        • Once the scan is complete do the following:
      • If you have any infections you will prompted, then select "Apply all actions"
      • Next select the "Reports" icon at the top.
      • Select the "Save report as" button in the lower left hand of the screen and save it to a text file on your system (make sure to remember where you saved that file, this is important). I suggest saving it to your desktop, so it will be easy to find.

        • Close ewido and reboot your system back into Normal Mode.

        Next:

        Please download Hijack This from here:
        http://radiosplace.com

        Or from here:

        http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/hijackthis.zip

        133060


        Next:
        Your copy of HijackThis needs to be in a folder of it's own. When HJT fixes anything, it makes backups of the original files in the folder it is in. For this reason it cannot be run from a Zip file or from Temporary folders because the backups will be deleted. Having the backups could be VITAL to restoring your system if something went wrong in the FIX process!

        1. Please go to you're 'My Documents' folder, right-click and select 'New > Folder' then name the folder 'HJT'.

        2. Copy and paste HijackThis.exe to the new folder.

        An HJT update:
        You need to Update HiJackThis. Do the following:
        1. Open HiJackThis, click on the Config button (bottom right corner)
        2. Click on Misc. Tools (button at the top)
        3. Click on *Check for online Update*
        4. Check for updates often (weekly is recommended) or just before scanning.

        Also, if you have any Startup items disabled in Msconfig, uncheck those items, reboot, then post a fresh log. Hijack This can not "see" disabled items in Startup.

        Next:
        Close all other Windows and Browsers, leaving only Hijack This open.

        Double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".

        When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
        Click: "Save Log" (generates: "hijackthis.log")

        Copy and Paste the entire log,including the header into this topic, along with the Ewido report.

        Hint: after posting your log click "Track this topic" at the top of the page, so you will be notified (email) when a response is made to your post.

    Hi floody:

    If you did the following before running Ewido, just break it up into a couple of seperate posts.
    If not, please do the below before running Ewido again and that should clear out a lot of the unnecessary entries.

    Clean your Cache and Cookies in IE:
    • Close all instances of Outlook Express and Internet Explorer
    • Go to Control Panel > Internet Options > General tab
    • Click the "Delete Cookies" button
    • Next to it, Click the "Delete Files" button
    • When prompted, place a check in: "Delete all offline content", click OK
    Clean your Cache and Cookies in Firefox (In case you also have Firefox installed):
    • Go to Tools > Options.
    • Click Privacy in the menu on the left side of the Options window.
    • Click the Clear button located to the right of each option (History, Cookies, Cache).
    • Click OK to close the Options window
      Alternatively, you can clear all information stored while browsing by clicking Clear All.
      A confirmation dialog box will be shown before clearing the information.
    Clean other Temporary files + Recycle bin
    • Go to start > run and type: cleanmgr and click ok.
    • Let it scan your system for files to remove.
    • Make sure Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files, and Recycle Bin are the only things checked.
    • Press OK to remove them.

    Hi floody:

    Yes, it was a help, but it does not look like you cleaned the cookies or cache in Mozilla, before running Ewido. That should be done, so the Ewido log is not so huge.

    Please print, or copy and paste this text into a Notepad file and place it on your desktop, to review as you work.

    Change in plans. Please do the following, if possible before running Ewido again. Looks like there are a number of infestations to deal with. We need to get you some additional FREE protection on this PC.

    Please download Look2Me-Destroyer.exe to your desktop.

    Please use this link:
    http://www.atribune.org/content/view/28/

    * Close all windows and browsers, before continuing.
    * Double-click Look2Me-Destroyer.exe to run it.
    * Put a check next to Run this program as a task.
    * You will receive a message saying Look2Me-Destroyer will close and re-open in approximately 10 seconds. Click OK
    * When Look2Me-Destroyer re-opens, click the Scan for L2M button, your desktop icons will disappear, this is normal.
    * Once it's done scanning, click the Remove L2M button.
    * You will receive a Done Scanning message, click OK.
    * When completed, you will receive this message: Done removing infected files! Look2Me-Destroyer will now shutdown your computer, click OK.
    * Your computer will then shutdown.
    * Turn your computer back on.

    If you receive a message from your firewall about this program accessing the internet please allow it.

    If you receive a runtime error '339' please download MSWINSCK.OCX from the link below and place it in your C:\Windows\System32 Directory.
    http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/MSWINSCK.OCX
    http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/suppo…me=MSWINSCK.OCX

    Next:
    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 reboot your computer, click OK.

      • Note: It is possible that VundoFix encountered a file it could not remove.
      In this case, VundoFix will run on reboot, simply follow the above
      instructions starting from "Click the Scan for Vundo button." when VundoFix appears at reboot.
      Next:

      Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri)
      Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.

      Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
      Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
      Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

      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.
      http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/proc…processutil.htm

      Caution: Running SmitfraudFix in option #2 on an uninfected machine will remove your desktop background.

      Then, please run Hijack This again. Scan and copy the log, then post it into this topic, along with the contents of C:\Look2Me-Destroyer.txt, the contents of C:\vundofix.txt and the SmitfraudFix report.

      Please use the [external image: Posted Image] button to reply.

    Hi floody:

    That was as quick as I've ever seen it done. Take a breath. :D

    Please print, or copy and paste this text into a Notepad file and place it on your desktop, to review as you work. Please proceed with this fix in the order provided below.

    Please reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :
    • Restart your computer
    • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
    • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu with options should appear;
    • Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press "Enter".
    • Choose your usual account.
    Once in Safe Mode, open the SmitfraudFix folder again and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
    Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press "Enter" to delete infected files.

    You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?"; answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter" in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

    The tool will now check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found); answer "Yes" by typing Y and press "Enter".

    The tool may need to restart your computer to finish the cleaning process. A text file will appear onscreen, with results from the cleaning process; please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

    Then please reboot into Normal Windows.


    OPTIONAL If not Uninstalled/Removed here, then do not fix with Hijack This, or delete the file(s) for this.
    Go to Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs and Uninstall/Remove……
    LookSmart Toolbar


    Disable Ewido:
    Please disable Ewido, as it may interfere with the fix.
    To disable Ewido:
    From the system tray:
    • Right-click the system tray icon and uncheck real time protection.
      or From within Ewido -
    • Under 'Your security status', if the real time protection is active, deactivate it by clicking 'real time protection' until the status says 'inactive'.
    Once your log is clean you can re-enable Ewido.

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

    Optional - WILDTANGENT WildTangent's privacy policy used to state that they also collect and share individuals information but this is no longer the case, what they say. It's considered to be foistware even though it may not spy anymore. . Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs. Select if found Wildtangent entry and click ‘Remove’. I leave it to you to decide if you want to keep it.

    Close all windows and browsers, leaving only HijackThis running.

    Place a check beside each of these entries listed below, if still present.

    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [WildTangent CDA] "C:\Program Files\WildTangent\Apps\CDA\GameDrvr.exe" /startup "C:\Program Files\WildTangent\Apps\CDA\cdaEngine0500.dll"


    Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

    [*]Reboot into Safe Mode: see here if you are not sure how to do this.


    Using Windows Explorer, locate the following files/folders shown DARK and delete them, if still present:

    C:\PROGRA~1\LOOKSM~1\tbu35\toolbar.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\ddaby.dll

    The following is optional.
    C:\Program Files\WildTangent\Apps\CDA\GameDrvr.exe

    Next:
    Please perform a search for the following files shown DARK and delete all instances. Windows XP's search feature is a little different. When you click on 'All files and folders' on the left pane, click on the 'More advanced options' at the bottom. Make sure that Search system folders, Search hidden files and folders, and Search subfolders are checked.
    winxkn32 - winxkn32.dll

    Exit Explorer, enable hidden files and reboot.

    If you were unable to delete any of the files, then please follow these additional instructions:
     Download Pocket Killbox and unzip it; save it to your Desktop.
    Run it, and click the radio button that says Delete a file on reboot. For each of the files you could not delete, paste them one at a time into the full path of file to delete box and click the red circle with a white cross in it.
    The program will ask you if you want to reboot; say No each time until the last one has been pasted in whereupon you should answer Yes.
    Let the system reboot.

    Please run Hijack This again. Scan and copy the log, then post it into this topic, along with contents of the SmitfraudFix log located at C:\rapport.txt.

    Please advise if any problems remain.

    Please use the [external image: Posted Image] button to reply.

    Hi floody:

    You do seem to have two Anti-Virus Programs running full time, which is not recommended, as it can cause conflicts between them and result in giving you less protection, rather than more.
    I suggest removing either AVG7, or Symantec. Needless to say, if you have paid for Symantec, it would be the logical one to keep, as AVG7 is free.

    I do not see a FIREWALL, which is essential for every PC connected to the Internet. The native MS XP firewall is not recommended.

    Below you will find a link to Zone Alarm, which has a good free firewall for personal use, another for kerio (free for personal use) and a link to sygate. Note that it is not recommended to run two firewalls simultaneously, not even along with the new Microsoft firewall.
    http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/cata…sku_list_za.jsp
    http://www.kerio.com/us/kpf_home.html
    http://smb.sygate.com/products/spf_pro.htm

    Then:
    To disable the XP firewall: Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections > Settings > Properties > Advanced…. Remove the check mark from the "Internet Connection Firewall" box and click "OK." Now, install your new firewall, without any further delay and certainly before going onto the internet.


    Your Hijack This logfile looks to be clean.
    If there are no problems, please be sure to use the link to see TonyKlein's good advice (below). Those Protection programs offered free, are some of the best available.

    One of the best features of Windows XP is the System Restore option, however if Malware infects a computer with this operating system the Malware can be backed up in the System Restore folder. Therefore, clearing the restore points is necessary after a virus removal.

    To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

    (winXP)

    1. 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.

    2. Reboot.

    3. 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.

    * Clean your Cache and Cookies in IE:
    Close all instances of Outlook Express and Internet Explorer
    Go to Control Panel > Internet Options > General tab
    Click the "Delete Cookies" button
    Next to it, Click the "Delete Files" button
    When prompted, place a check in: "Delete all offline content", click OK

    * Clean your Cache and Cookies in Firefox (In case you also have Firefox installed):
    Go to Tools > Options.
    Click Privacy in the menu on the left side of the Options window.
    Click the Clear button located to the right of each option (History, Cookies, Cache).
    Click OK to close the Options window
    Alternatively, you can clear all information stored while browsing by clicking Clear All.
    A confirmation dialog box will be shown before clearing the information.

    * Clean other Temporary files + Recycle bin

    Go to start > run and type: cleanmgr and click ok.
    Let it scan your system for files to remove.
    Make sure Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files, and Recycle Bin are the only things checked.
    Press OK to remove them.

    Also, see TonyKlein's good advice and highly recommended FREE PROTECTION PROGRAMS. A must for all PC users.

    So how did I get infected in the first place?

    Safe surfing. :wavey:
