Hi all,

Upon clicking on (valid) Google search results in IE7 in the past days, I am being redirected to monstermarketplace.com and others. System is running Win XP Pro V2002 SP2.

I've run the latest and updated versions of Spysweeper, Lavasoft Adaware SE, SpybotS&D, CWShredder and Windows Defender in their respective full/deep scan modes. Spysweeper and Lavasoft found some (critical) tracking cookies but nothing else. SpybotS&D identified a change to the registry for the Windows Security center and fixed it. CWS and Windows Defender found nothing.
I rescanned the system again with all programs (with the exception of Windows Defender) after rebooting (also in between) and all come up clean now. But the above described problem persists. The Hijack-This log (after rebooting) is listed below.

Then, since today I can not access a specific website (www.dpreview.com) if I enter the address into the address bar of IE7 but also not with Firefox 2. Instead in IE7, the address is entered as a search term in Google and upon clicking on the search result (www.dpreview.com) I receive the message that IE can not display the webpage. In FF2, I get the "server not found" message upon entering it into the address bar. I know that the server is up as I can access it from my cell phone browser. Any idea if this is related?

Your help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

LDTate,

thanks for your reply and my apologies for not following up earlier.

I followed the instructions in the provided link. After clicking OK to run fixwareout during the reboot, my antivirus software catched a Trojanflush virus and quarantined it. I am not sure if this is related to fixwareout. The report from fixwareout looks like this:

Then, the TCP/IP properties were such that a specific address was given for the DNS server. I set it to Obtain DNS Server Automatically.

The latest Hijack-This log is below. And the redirect of the Google search results seems to have ended. Do you think this is it? In the provided link you seem to imply that these instructions only temporarily fix the problem. Thanks.

Some some startup items that don't need to load.

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\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [BJCFD] "C:\Program Files\BroadJump\Client Foundation\CFD.exe"
O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MSMSGS] "C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe" /background

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

How's it running now?

LDTate,

Thanks for the support. I removed the items you suggested and a new log is below.

The original issues have been resolved. I am not redirected anymore upon clicking on Google results and I have no problems anymore with accessing websites. Only strange thing is that logging into Yahoo Mail takes unusually long.

Again, thank you very much for your help! This has been great.

Only strange thing is that logging into Yahoo Mail takes unusually long.

That could be on their end.

You can remove any programs I had you install

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.


Also get a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

Only run one Anti-Virus and Firewall program.

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.

Do not use Ad-aware if you have McAfee's VirusScan and AntiSpyware


Safe Surfing. :D

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