I suggest you do this:
Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Clear "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, select "Show hidden files and folders."
Clear "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.
Open the HijackThis Folder. Find the file HijackThis.exe, Right Click on the file and Select Rename. Rename Hijackthis.exe to Spyware.exe.
Only after the above:
Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.
Next:
Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.
(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)
It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time.
Next:
Download ComboFix from Here to your Desktop.
**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, please delete it from your desktop and download this new version . It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**
--------------------------------------------------------------------
- Close any open browsers and make sure you are disconnected from the net. Unplug the cable if need be before running combofix.
- WARNING: IF you have not already done so Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet when it starts
- Please do not re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review
****Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall or freeze ****
*If there is no internet connection when Combofix has completely finished then restart your computer to restore back the connections.

Please read the instructions carefully. Print them out if you have a printer.
Do Not reboot until combofix runs and reboots your system
- 1.Download RenV.exe by sUBs to your desktop
2. Double click on it to run it
It will search your system drive looking for any modified .exe file and will produce a log for you named log.txt
================================================================================
=========
1.) Copy the following text to a new notepad file.
Save it as CFScript.txt but do NOT use it yet.
- Copy the entire contents of the Code Box below to Notepad.
- Name the file as CFScript.txt (Overwrite the existing one)
- Change the Save as Type to All Files
- and Save it on the desktop
File _linenums:0'><strong class='bbc'>File::</strong> C:\WINDOWS\system32\pkshsqrd.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\mljji.exe C:\WINDOWS\pchealth\helpctr\binaries\MSConfig .exe <strong class='bbc'>Folder::</strong> C:\Program Files\Viewpoint C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Viewpoint <strong class='bbc'>Registry::</strong> [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\~\Browser Helper Objects\{4487598C-2EC7-43A2-870E-6D8D720FDD9F}]
2.) Drag log.txt from desktop that RenV created on top of RenV.exe
Follow the prompts.
Once done it makes a log.
Post its results in your next reply.
3.) Drag CFScript on top of combofix.exe and let it run.

Well, there is a considerable difference in how long it takes the machine to start up and start / end programs... Everything is running much more smoothly and quickly... I also noticed that the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray, which had disappeared while I was disinfecting my computer with Norton IS, has reappeared. Thank you very much for your help...
Here is the new RenV log file:
Ran on Sat 01/05/2008 - 13:44:07.26 Entries: 0 (0) Directories: 0 Files: 0 Bytes: 0 Blocks: 0
And here is the new ComboFix log file:

Save it as CFScript.txt but do NOT use it yet.
- Copy the entire contents of the Code Box below to Notepad.
- Name the file as CFScript.txt (Overwrite the existing one)
- Change the Save as Type to All Files
- and Save it on the desktop
File _linenums:0'><strong class='bbc'>File::</strong> C:\WINDOWS\system32\pkshsqrd.dll <strong class='bbc'>Folder::</strong> C:\Program Files\Viewpoint C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Viewpoint <strong class='bbc'>Registry::</strong> [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\~\Browser Helper Objects\{4487598C-2EC7-43A2-870E-6D8D720FDD9F}]
2.) Drag CFScript on top of combofix.exe and let it run.
Post the new log it makes when machine reboots.
Let me know how machine is running.

The machine boots up quickly and there's a noticeable improvement in performance. Some issues you might need to be aware of...
1. The System Configuration Utility was set to Selective Startup, I believe during the Norton scans... so at startup, it pops up to suggest that I change the setting... I wasn't sure that I should, so I left it alone.
2. There are still some missing icons in my System Tray, mostly related to my HP All-in-one Printer functions... I assume I'll need to reinstall that software after the machine is completely clean.
3. Norton Protection Center boots up clean, but has a red X because I need to install phishing protection.
4. No other unnecessary programs auto launch... at least, not noticeably... The Windows Installer problems appear to be resolved.
Here is the latest ComboFix log:

When you see the box popup that tells you that, just put a Check in the Box to not show that when you startup. That's how I run mine.
These aren't bad but not needed at startup
Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a checkmark/tick in the box on the left side on these:

I set the System Configuration Utility so that it wouldn't show again. Boot up took a bit longer this time, but everything appears to be working fine. Another thing I've noticed... I have a Dell Dimension tower with two fans, and lately both fans were running almost non-stop while the PC was on... Now, the PC has been on all afternoon and only one fan is running, I'm guessing because the machine isn't working as hard as it used to.
Anyway, here's the latest HiJack This log...

You're rightNow, the PC has been on all afternoon and only one fan is running, I'm guessing because the machine isn't working as hard as it used to.

Good job

- Click START then RUN
- Now type Combofix /u in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the U, it needs to be there.
Here's my usual all clean post
Log looks good
You need to create a new Clean restore point.
Note: This will remove all previous Restore Points
Click Start Menu > Run > copy and paste
%SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe
Press OK. Choose Create a Restore Point then click Next. Name it (something you'll remember) and click Create, when the confirmation screen shows the restore point has been created click Close.
Double-click My Computer.
Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Check "Hide file extensions for known file types."
Under the "Hidden files" folder, Uncheck "Show hidden files and folders."
Check "Hide protected operating system files."
Click Apply, and then click OK.- Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
- From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
- Click once on the Security tab
- Click once on the Internet icon so it becomes highlighted.
- Click once on the Custom Level button.
[list=a] - Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
- Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
- Change the Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
- Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
- Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
- Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
- When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button.
- If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
- Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page.
- Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week
(Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out. - Use a Firewall - I can not stress how important it is that you use a Firewall on your computer.
Without a firewall your computer is succeptible to being hacked and taken over.
I am very serious about this and see it happen almost every day with my clients.
Simply using a Firewall in its default configuration can lower your risk greatly.
For a tutorial on Firewalls and a listing of some available ones see the link below:
Understanding and Using Firewalls - Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly.
This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer.
If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site
until there are no more critical updates. - Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will add a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer
settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware - IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
Using IE-SPYAD to help block unwanted sites and activities - Update all these programs regularly - Make sure you update all the programs I have listed regularly.
Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.
Only run one Anti-Virus and Firewall program.
I would also suggest you read this:
So how did I get infected in the first place?
