Hello and welcome back to the Forums.

______________________________
Next:

Download the trial version of AVG Anti-Spyware from here and install it. When the program has been installed, and you click the Finish button, AVG Anti-Spyware will open.

If the program does not automatically update itself during installation, or you are unsure whether it has done so, please do the following:
  • Click the Update icon at the top and under Manual Update click the Start update button.
  • The program will either update or inform you that no update was available.
  • It is essential that you get the update - keep trying until successful. (Note: If you have problems getting the update, you can download an installer for the full database from here (save it on your desktop). Once you have downloaded the installer, make sure that AVG Anti-Spyware is closed and then double-click on avgas-signatures-full-current.exe to install the database).
Please set up the program as follows:
  • Click the Shield icon at the top and under Resident shield is… click active. This should now
    change to inactive.
  • Click the Update icon and untick the automatic update option.
  • Click on Scanner on the toolbar.
  • Click on the Settings tab.
  • Under How to act? - make sure that Quarantine is selected.
  • Under How to scan? - All checkboxes should be ticked.
  • Under Possibly unwanted software - All checkboxes should be ticked.
  • Under Reports - Select Do not automatically generate reports.
  • Under What to scan? - Select Scan every file.
Close all open windows.
Do not run a scan yet.

______________________________

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter

[external image: Posted Image]

This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. It will create a file named:
c:\rapport.txt


IMPORTANT: Do NOT run any other options until you are asked to do so!

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Please post:
C:\rapport.txt

Running the Clean

Warning: running option #2 on a non infected computer will remove your Desktop background.


Please print out or copy these instructions/tutorial to Notepad as the internet will not be (while in Safe Mode) available to you at certain points of the removal process. Make sure to work through all the Steps in the exact order in which they are listed below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before moving on with the fixes.

Reboot your computer in Safe Mode.
  • If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power.
  • Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.
  • Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.
  • Ensure that the Safe Mode option is selected.
  • Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.
  • Login on your usual account.
______________________________

Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press Enter.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?" answer Yes by typing Y and hit Enter.

[external image: Posted Image]


The tool will also check if wininet.dll is infected. If a clean version is found, you will be prompted to replace wininet.dll. Answer Yes to the question "Replace infected file ?" by typing Y and hit Enter.

A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process, if you computer does not restart automatically please do it yourself manually. Reboot in Safe Mode.

The tool will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.

I'm seriously gonna cry. I was in the process last night of doing the instructions you gave me and I posted the log. My computer was still acting horrible and I wanted to go to bed, so I shut down, but it wouldn't, it kept coming up with an error….my brain is so fried, I don't remember what it said. Anyway, I got frustrated and just turned if off manually. I tried to turn the computer on today and it wouldn't go any further than the windows start up screen and it would shut itself off and turn on again. It would never get to the desktop. Anyway, I tried going into safe mode, but it wouldn't work either. I wanna throw the thing out the window. I called some computer stores in the area and took it to one of them today to take a look at it. Again, I couldn't even get to the desktop even in safe mode. They couldn't help me, they said my hard drive probably is corrupted. An option was to use the recovery CD. So I brought it back and didn't know what else to do so I restored it using the Recovery CD. I used the emergency disk first, but when I tried to use it, it wouldn't work. I'm so sad. I lost everything and now it's all screwed up, the font is horrible. I downloaded my Norton Anti Virus again and got hooked back to the internet. I tried to download the hijack this, but I can't link to it. I feel so stupid, but do you have any suggestions? I'm ready to say screw it and buy a new flippin computer. Thanks :wall:

So, I finally found a new link for the hijackthis file. I downloaded again and here's my log. I don't know if it helps any. I'm at a loss now.

There's a message that keeps popping up: Message from local system to user, critical error message-registry damaged or corrupted to fix this problem, open internet explorer and type www.registrycleanerxp.com after install the cleaner program you will not receive any more reminders or pop-ups like this. Should I do this? I'm afraid to do anything to my computer now. :wtf:

You shouldn't be getting that popup message.

Download ComboFix from Here to your Desktop.
  • Double click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
  • When finished, it shall produce a log for you, combofix.txt. Post that log and a HiJackthis log in your next reply
Note: Do not mouseclick while its running. That may cause it to stall

I have a question really quick. My automatic updates popped up and wants me toinstall Windows XP Service Pack 2. It says before I install they recommend to back up system and close programs. Should I go ahead and do this?

Yes, do that and let me know how it's running before we do anything else.
