Here is my HijackThis Log File. I have a suspicion that my firefox web browser has been hijacked. Two times in the past couple of weeks, my hompage has changed when I logged into my computer. And all my firefox settings had change. This is the reason I'm posting my HijackThis! file. Thanks

Thank you for the prompt response. I followed all your instructions as stated. Disabled Winpatrol Disabled SpySweeper as directed Ran Hijack This - Scan Only Selected Files as directed - A few were missing Reconfigured XP to show hidden files Searched for and removed ctbr.dll in C:\Program Files\Crawler\Toolbar\ctbr.dll The only thing I have not done is removal portion from the add/remove programs. There is a "Crawler Toolbar" listed, but no program named just "Crawler". I want to make sure I follow your instructions as exactly stated. Therefore, should I remove the "Crawler Toolbar" program? I'll await your response before proceeding further. Again Thanks for the quick response to my problem. mb
Ok I removed the Crawler Toolbar, ran Registry Mechanic, and CCLeaner. The folder has been removed from C:\Program Files\Crawler. Is there anything else I should do or places on my HD I should look for leftover Crawler entries? If not, then thanks again for you prompt reply and assistance with this issue. mb

A good prgram but may interfere with our fix.
Right click the running icon of winpatrol, and choose exit.

You need to update SunJava for security reasons.
Updating Java:
Download the latest version of
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u1
  • Scroll down to where it says "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u1… allows end-users to run Java applications".
  • Click the "Download" button to the right.
  • Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
  • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java.
  • Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name. It should have the [external image: Posted Image] icon next to it.
  • Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
  • Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
  • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  • Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6-windows-i586.exe to install the newest version.
Post a new HJT log for me.
I disabled Winpatrol, unchecked the spysweeper "unload at startup", and unchecked every available shield. However, the spysweeper.exe process still remains. I've tried rebooting but the process remains. I've also tried killing it in taskmanager, using taskkill, and in process explorer. Nothing seems to work and I guess it needs to be stopped before I remove the files with HJT? Because of this, I thought it best to give you this information before removing any files. For some, reason, I don't have full control permission under my created admin acct. The only account that has full permission to the spysweeper.exe process is the system admin. Currently I use Simple File Sharing on my network. I can change that if needed in order to give my admin acct full control permission. Or perhaps you know of another way to kill this process. I'm still learning the ins and outs of networking, therefore I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any suggestions?
As long as you followed the directions for disabling it you should be OK. The process may still show in task manager. Fix the lines in HJT update Java…post a new log and lets have a look.
Ok - I finally got the spysweeper.exe process to quit running somehow after several reboots.

I ran HJT and remove files as directed. Then downloaded JRE 6u1 to my desktop, removed all currently installed Java runtime programs, rebooted and installed the new program from my desktop. I then ran HJT once more. Here it is.

Great news ! [external image: Posted Image]

Your log now appears to be clean.

Lets do a few things to tidy up.
Please do these in the order I suggest!


___________________________________
If we have set your computer to see all files and folders we must reprotect them.

UNDO SHOW ALL FILES
click on the My Computer icon.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
After the new window appears select the View tab.
Deselect in the checkbox labeled Display the contents of system folders.
Deselect the checkbox labeled Show hidden files and folders.
Select the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide file extensions for known file types.
Replace the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.
Press the Apply button and then the OK .
Now many important files are safe.

Download and Install a HOSTS File
A Hosts file is a plain text file which prevents your computer from connecting to malware and spyware sites by redirecting the connection request to 127.0.0.1, which is your local address. If you use a proxy server, or if you are on AOL, be sure to read the special instructions.
You can download the MVPS Hosts File and see a HOSTS file tutorial here :

Safe and Happy Surfing. :)
Thanks again for your help. I have a couple of questions to ask. Also, I've encountered a problem which you may or may not be able to help me with.

First, I've implemented and installed everything down to your recommendation to get adaware and spybot. I use to have both programs on my machine until I started seeing negative reviews about them. That's why I have spysweeper and spyware terminator now. I've read that both are now more up to date spyware programs and do not pickup as many false positives as adaware and spybot. If you think I still should have them in place of or as a complement to what I already have, then I'll download them again.

Also, I'm having problems with Comodo. I've read that it's a good firewall but I do not have enough experience to with the app to properly configure it to protect my machine. So I went back to Zone Alarm. However, I'm getting an error message whenever I try to download the purchased version. The error message says: An unhandled exception occurred in Win32 in GLBF3.tmp[4044]. And I close Comodo and all apps and browers before attempting the install.

I'm going to send one more HJT log. If it doesn't provide you with any useful information to help me with this problem, then I'll understand and go to Zone Alarm for help. I just thought you may find something wrong with my system that causing the download error.

Anyway, I'll finish up with your recommendations tomorrow.

Thanks again for your assistance. Here's the HJT file
