Post #1
I ran Spybot today and it found a registry entry related to SmitFraud.C. I fixed it with Spybot and rescanned with Spybot and Norton. No sign of the problem. Then later I reran Spybot and the entry was there. I removed again. No other signs of a problem. Hijackthis and Smitfraudfix scans included below. Can you tell me if I'm infected? Thanks

Hi Please re-scan with spybot and tell if this -> HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3298450434-2531524566-2173070472-1006\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats\{E5DF9D10-3B52-11D1-83E8-00A0C90DC849} still occurs :)

Here's the latest spybot report. No sign of the Smitfraud entry. I'm going to reboot and run spybot again. — Report generated: 2007-07-15 08:33 — Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter_disabled: Settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wscsvc\Start!=W=2 — Spybot - Search & Destroy version: 1.4 (build: 20050523) — 2005-05-31 blindman.exe (1.0.0.1) 2005-05-31 SpybotSD.exe (1.4.0.3) 2005-05-31 TeaTimer.exe (1.4.0.2) 2006-12-29 unins000.exe (51.41.0.0) 2005-05-31 Update.exe (1.4.0.0) 2007-05-23 advcheck.dll (1.5.3.0) 2005-05-31 aports.dll (2.1.0.0) 2005-05-31 borlndmm.dll (7.0.4.453) 2005-05-31 delphimm.dll (7.0.4.453) 2005-05-31 SDHelper.dll (1.4.0.0) 2007-01-02 Tools.dll (2.0.1.0) 2005-05-31 UnzDll.dll (1.73.1.1) 2005-05-31 ZipDll.dll (1.73.2.0) 2007-07-11 Includes\Cookies.sbi (*) 2007-05-30 Includes\Dialer.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\DialerC.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\Hijackers.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\HijackersC.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\Keyloggers.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\KeyloggersC.sbi (*) 2004-11-29 Includes\LSP.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\Malware.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\MalwareC.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\PUPS.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\PUPSC.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\Revision.sbi (*) 2007-05-30 Includes\Security.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\SecurityC.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\Spybots.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\SpybotsC.sbi (*) 2005-02-17 Includes\Tracks.uti 2007-07-03 Includes\Trojans.sbi (*) 2007-07-11 Includes\TrojansC.sbi (*) 2007-06-06 Plugins\TCPIPAddress.dll

Rebooted and rescanned. No sign of Smitfraud. Is there anything else I should be concerned about from the Hijackthis or Smitfraudfix scans? I noted the Smitfraudfix report had a note "host fiile corrupted." Thanks for your help.

I don't think so. At least I don't know how to customize the host file. I scan regularly with Adaware, Spybot and Norton. The only ongoing issue I have is my PC takes a long time to boot up (10 minutes plus). I've assume this is due to Norton Internet Security start up. Thanks again for your help. Gttreker9

Hi Yes, Norton is very resource demanding application. You can remove these from startup, it might help a bit: O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [mmtask] c:\Program Files\MusicMatch\MusicMatch Jukebox\mmtask.exe O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe Photo Downloader] "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Album Starter Edition\3.2\Apps\apdproxy.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe Reader Speed Launcher] "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\Reader_sl.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [UpdateManager] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Sonic\Update Manager\sgtray.exe" /r O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SunJavaUpdateSched] "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin\jusched.exe" O4 - Global Startup: Acrobat Assistant.lnk = C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat 6.0\Distillr\acrotray.exe And fix these anyway: O2 - BHO: (no name) - {5CA3D70E-1895-11CF-8E15-001234567890} - (no file) O2 - BHO: (no name) - {AA58ED58-01DD-4d91-8333-CF10577473F7} - (no file) Did those help your startup time?

Did as you suggested and rebooted. Start up was faster, but not lightening speed. Note the two O2 - BHO entries are still there:

Hi Well disable teatimer first: # Run Spybot-S&D in Advanced Mode. # If it is not already set to do this Go to the Mode menu select "Advanced Mode" # On the left hand side, Click on Tools # Then click on the Resident Icon in the List # Uncheck "Resident TeaTimer" and OK any prompts. # Restart your computer. Those line should go away after fixing them when TeaTimer is off. How much RAM you have?
