Okay, I am not as saavy as I would like to be with this thing. All I know is that not long ago I had a great laptop that started up quickly and zipped along doing all I needed. Now, it tooks forever to boot up, I am infested with spyware and am having a bear of a time period. I keep getting a popup telling me that Poshmont A (Trojan) was blocked and some others as well (can't remember the names and I can't find them on the log - something benvenue! but they don't show on log, they just pop up as having been 'blocked'). Here are my logs from HiJack This and Ewido done today. ANY help would be absolutely great!

::Report end
Charlies Angel :D

Welcome to the forum, sorry for the delay in responding. You have a few infections going on that are slowing your system down.


Lets do this for starters

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 along with a new HJT log please

Please do not run Option #2 yet.
Okiedokie, here's the info you requested … Thanks so much for responding :)
Oh, and as I was logged on to do this, some AOL Spyware type thing I have picked up Poshmont, A. and something else that had the words generic! in it (wrote it down but lost it). Had the Spyware thing 'delete it', but its been there before and it comes back often. Yet, I don't see anything by those names in these lists. Once again, TIA for your help!

Open HJT Scan Only, close your browser and all open windows, check this entry and click on Fix Checked

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [9c4df99a.exe] C:\Documents and Settings\Isa\Local Settings\Application Data\9c4df99a.exe


We need to make sure all hidden files are showing :
  • Click Start.
  • Open My Computer.
  • Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
  • Select the View tab.
  • Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
  • Uncheck the Hide file extensions for known types option.
  • Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
  • Click Yes to confirm.
  • Click OK.
Once your system is clean, we suggest that you reverse this to keep critical windows files from accidently being deleted.



Boot into Safemode
  • Go to Start> Shut off your Computer> Restart
  • As the computer starts to boot-up, Tap the F8 KEY somewhat rapidly,
    this will bring up a menu.
  • Use the Up and Down Arrow Keys to scroll up to Safemode
  • Then press the Enter Key on your Keyboard


Right click on Start and then click on Explore and navigate to the following files and delete them.

C:\WINDOWS\svchost.exe

C:\Documents and Settings\Isa\Local Settings\Application Data\9c4df99a.exe



Still in Safemode, lets clean out all your temp files manually to make sure we get them all.

* Go to My Computer/ C: Drive/ Documents and Settings/ Every User on this Computer Local Settings and delete all the contents of the Temp Folder and the Temporary Internet Files Folder <–Just the contents, not the folder itself.

* Go to My Computer/ C:/ Windows/ Temp and delete all the contents of the Temp Folder <– But not the temp folder itself.

* Go to My Computer/ C:/ Windows/ Prefetch and remove all the contents of the Prefetch Folder. <–But not the Prefetch folder itself.



Close any instance of Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer.
  • Go to Start> Control Panel> Internet Options . You shoud be on the General Tab
  • Delete Cookies
  • Delete Files > and offline content as well

Now Empty your Recycle Bin


Reboot your system normally

Post a new HJT log please.

Ken :D
Gosh Ken, Thanks again for taking the time to walk me through this whole process … it amazes me how detailed you are! It's great!!!
Okay, here's the deal … I cannot seem to be rid of that stinking svchost.exe (it keeps telling me Access Denied - check if file is write protected or in use). Making me nuts!!! There was another file in one of the Temp Files that did that too, 2148 … just would not delete … tells me it is in use or write protected – Access Denied
Anyway, I followed all the other steps and here is the HJT Log:

Hi Kiddo, :D

  • Your Java is out of date and leaving your system vulnerable.
  • Go to your Add-Remove Programs in the Control Panel and uninstall any previous (jre) installations.
  • Reboot your system.
  • Then go to the Sun Java website and download and install the update.
  • Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 8 <–This is what you need to download and install.
  • Then after install you can verify your installation here Sun Java Verify

How is everything running now???
