hello ppl, i recently noticed my pc had slowed down considerably so i decided to do a hijacklog file and post it here. I know i have a trojan called bar888 but i think this is one of many because i constantly get my virus shield popping up to say something is infected. Anywayz, i tried to do a log and everytime i try the computer freezes up or restarts. Also, i downloaded the new update for spybot S&D but when i run this program my computer freezes up and a completely black screen with with text tells me a serious system error has occured and the system is dumping physical memory. i would really like an expert's help but i dont know how to get the log file to post it here.. :( ..any help anyone?? thanks in advance

i have just confirmed i have more than one trojan horse on this computer..
they are as follows:
wauclt.exe
ipwins.exe
services.exe(not too sure about this one)
msnmsgs.exe
and BAR888.dll

I have managed to outsmart this son of a biotch! everytime i got near it my computer restarted so i went through safe mode and did a hijackthis log and stored it on my computer..but when i restarted in normal mode it was infected and the virus cleared it out giving me a message: access denied and my virus scan deleted the hijackthis log altogether. so the second time i stored thehijackthis log while in safe mode directly to a floppy disk and restarted in normal mode and copy and paste the text from the log directly from diskette!
here's my log:

Can you boot in Safe Mode with Networking? If so, please do so and follow these instructions:


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
