Greetings -

Below is my first log. I'd appreciate it if someone knowledgeable would look it over and evaluate what it says. I'm not having any serious problems at the moment - just trying to institute and maintain good habits and practices. Thanks very much!

_________________________________
Welcome to the Forums.

The fixes we will use are specific to your problems and should only be used for this issue on this machine.

Please only use this topic to reply to. Do not start another thread.
If any other issues arise let me know.
The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear. So lets do this to the end!
  • All hijackthis logs I ask for should be done in normal mode ( not safe mode)
  • These logs should be done last after you have followed my instructions in the previous post.


Please if you decide to seek help at another forum let us know. There is a shortage of helpers and tying 2 of us up is a waste of time.
If you have any questions about any advice given here please STOP and ask!


Your log looks good. Just 1 orphaned entry to fix.



______________________________
HJT
Run hijackthis and choose scan only and place a check by the following lines if present.
Close all other windows and browsers except HJT before clicking on Fix Checked

I see no evidence of a fire wall. I suggest you get one in place now.

A few words on Microsofts firewall. It only works in one direction. Incoming.
That means if something gets by it you would never know it was trying
to contact the internet.
Example: A bad program installs itself. You would never know it was contacting the internet.
Downloading other nasties and so forth.

If you decide to run one of these you should be certain Microsofts firewall is disabled.
To disable it.

I will list a few free firewalls for you. These are good (free) firewalls:

Never run 2 firwalls together. They will interfere with each other.
So just download and install one!


Both are easy to use.


Zone Alarm
Comodo .

Let me know everything is still OK and I'll have this thread closed.

Hi Bob, and thanks for looking at my log. In response:

- I'm not seeking HiJack This help anywhere else. It's just me and you, bud.
- I have closed all windows (including this one) selected the 016-DPF, etc. line and hit the Fix Checked button.
- firewall - My gear sits on a LAN behind a router. I also use a proxy/anonymizer (www.Hide-The-IP.com). My real IP is completely stealthed according to Shields Up on the Gibson Research site (www.grc.com) while the fake IP is a bit porous. Since we're talking about a porous fake IP I'm not that worried about it. I don't know if any of that is relevant to the firewall issue, so if you still think I need one, I will download and install.

Below is the first log since deleting the offending line. Let me know if there's more to do or if I need to install that firewall. Thanks much.

Hello again ,
While Hide-The-IP.com is good software to use it doesn't replace what a software firewall does. Many malware fighters such as my self sit behind the same sort of router as you do. We still use firewalls.

What a software firewall does (simply put) is notify your if any program wants to contact the internet.
Example: Let's say by chance a bad program got onto your system somehow. We will call it bad.exe
Bad.exe is a program that contacts the internet in order to download other baddies from the net continuing to infect your machine. (Trojan down loader)
It's at this point your software firewall pops up and asks if bad.exe can contact the internet. You see this and have no idea what bad.exe is so for now you tell it no until you can investigate what exactly bad.exe is. You have just stopped it from doing what it was supposed to. Good job ! :thumbup:

You should also note that you can teach a firewall what is OK and what isn't. The 2 (two) I have supplied links to have a button to check to tell it to remember your decision ( or something close to that). This way it will not ask you each time internet explorer or your anti virus program
(or other common/often used programs)
wants to contact the internet.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the explanation. Spybot Search & Destroy has a similar whitelisting feature that I had to train over the course of a few days. I'll see which of the two you suggest gets the better reviews and put it in place. Let me know if there's anything that needs addressing in the latest log. Thanks again, Bob. Rick
