hi medic,

first get a download, then we will boot into safe mode to use it.

download:
Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop:

http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.zip


Extract all the files to your Destop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.
———————————-
time for safe mode:
to reach safe mode you would tap the f8 key during a computer reboot, chose the first option from the list safe mode;
you might want to copy/paste the rest of this into notepad and save it so your can read it in safe mode;

once in safe mode:

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd

Select option #2 - (clean) then hit enter.

You will be prompted: Do you want to clean the registry? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter in order to remove the Desktop background and clean registry keys associated with the infection.

The tool will check if wininet.dll is infected. You may be prompted to replace the infected file (if found): Replace Infected file? answer Y (yes) and hit Enter to restore a clean file.

A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process. The report can be found at the root of the system drive, usually at C:\rapport.txt
In your next reply, please include a fresh Hijackthis log and rapport log.

also still in safe mode do this:

Empty your Temp folders. Go to Start > Run and type:cleanmgr. Windows will scan. When done check these 3 and press *ok* to remove:

Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin
————————-
reboot normally, post a new hjt log and the smitfraud log.
