Hello there, I let my brother use my laptop while I was home for the weekend only to find out when I got back to school that there was malware installed now. I have run both SpyDoctor and AVG and some problems were detected so I took the steps to rid my computer of the infections. Even after using both these programs (both of which are fully updated) there is still a problem. I ran the programs again and they both came up clean. The malware has installed an icon on my control panel which cannot be deleted, everytime I tried to remove the icon, it would open up my browser and send me to a webpage to purchase some anti-virus software. After some searching I found the file which is causing the problem but I can't remove it from my computer simply because of the icon on my control panel. By the way the file which I can't remove is known as ICMNTR (not sure if that helps)

I ran HijackThis and here is my log and I would like to thank you in advance for your help:

Sorry I forgot to mention that the icon in my control panel will give a message every 10 minutes or so stating that my computer has spyware on it and to "click on this message to download anti-spyware software." The message that appears is similar to when Windows is telling me that I have updates to install... Thanks

[LDTate]

Only for Windows XP and Windows 2000

Hello and welcome to the Forums.

Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop.
http://siri.urz.free...mitfraudFix.exe
Double Click SmitfraudFix.exe on your Desktop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.



______________________________
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



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
