Post #1
Google and MSN search engines are not working correctly. I am sure that if I use the others they will probably do the same. I type in what I am looking for and the listing comes up but when I click the site I want to look at it redirects me to another search for example.

I am searching for recipe websites so I type in "recipes" and msn brings up a list the first one has www.allrecipes.com. I click the website and it takes me to "hxxp://try.starware.com/landing/recipe/recipe_15.php?aff_id=looksmart_recipe", I back up and try it again and it takes me to "hxxp://www.findstuff.com/search.php?query=diet+recipes&source=sf" I back up again and it then takes me to the web site that I wanted to goto orginally.

It doesn't do this to all searches, if I am looking for a particular site that doesn't have anything to sell for example.

Also and I don't know if this is related but it won't let hyperlinks that are in email that takes me directly to the website for example "hxxp://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2006/01dec_lunarleonid.htm?list153685"

I just updated to IE 7.0 thinking that would fix it but it still does the same thing.

As you can see this is pretty annoying.

Here is my log, please take a look at it and advise.

Thanks

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.



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:

O18 - Filter: text/html - (no CLSID) - (no file)
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: C:\WINDOWS\system32\dexplore.dll

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



Delete these Files if listed:

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.


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

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Download SDFix and save it to your Desktop.

Double click SDFix.exe and choose Install to extract it to its own folder on the Desktop. Please then 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.
  • In Safe Mode, right click the SDFix.zip folder and choose Extract All,
  • Open the extracted folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
  • Type Y to begin the script.
  • It will remove the Trojan Services then make some repairs to the registry and prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
  • Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
  • Your system will take longer that normal to restart as the fixtool will be running and removing files.
  • When the desktop loads the Fixtool will complete the removal and display Finished, then press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
  • Finally open the SDFix folder on your desktop and copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt back onto the forum with a new HijackThis log

Run HiJackThis then:

1. Click "Config…"
2. Click "Misc Tools"
3. Click "Open Process manager"
-
Next, while holding down the CTRL key, locate (if present) and click on (highlight) each of the following:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\msdhcp.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\tasksys.exe


Now double-check and make sure that only those item(s) above are highlighted, then click "Kill process". Now, click "Refresh", check again, and repeat this step if any remain.

===============

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:

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Microsoft HDCP for NT]
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [Microsoft Task Driver] tasksys.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Microsoft Task Driver] tasksys.exe
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [Microsoft HDCP for NT] msdhcp.exe

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


Delete these Files if listed:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\msdhcp.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\tasksys.exe


Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.


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

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.
Post #9
I did just what you asked except for the following deletions. The files were not there:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\msdhcp.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\tasksys.exe

Other then that all was done here is the hjt file.

The system appears to be working properly now no redirects to other websites and google links appears to goto the website and not google ads.

Is there anything else you would like to know?

I did notice that when I shutdown windows I now have to manually end programs on several programs. hpbpro.exe sometimes uses 99% of resources, ccapp does the same thing some times.

As far as performance the computer is behaving much better. I can't believe that symantec doesn't catch this kind of carp**!!

Let me know if there is anything else you need me to do!
Post #13
Good Job :thumbup:

Log looks good :D


You need to create a new Clean restore point.

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 any programs like these, I would recommend that you get them.
Spywareblaster,
Spywareguard.
IE Spyads
They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening.

Also get 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:
