Hi there!
I've been getting bombarded by pop-ups lately, but it wasn't really a problem until I couldn't access certain sites today, like Hotmail.com which keeps giving me a 'Page not found' page. I have used Spybot, Ad-aware, and Spy Sweeper and nothing has worked!

PLEASE HeLP!

Here is my log
thank you

Jessica

Hi thelastkiss113,

It appears that your computer has been infected by a password-stealing trojan. If you use this computer for sensitive purposes, such as internet banking then you should immediately use a known clean machine to change all your passwords. Also consider notifying your bank(s) etc that your login credentials may have been compromised.

Please open this page in your browser:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/submit-mal….php?channel=32

Please fill in the link to topic field with a link to this topic
Copy/paste the following into the Browse to the file you want to submit field:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\pg.exe

Then press Send File, this will upload the file for analysis


Download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) to your Desktop (right-click the link, select Save Target As…, select your Desktop and press Save)
  • Close all applications and windows.
  • Double-click on dss.exe to run it, and follow the prompts.
  • When the scan is complete, two text files will open - main.txt <- this one will be maximized and extra.txt<-this one will be minimized
  • Make sure Format->Word Wrap is unchecked
  • Copy (Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your reply

Once complete, please post both DSS logs, you won't need to produce a new HijackThis log as DSS produces one for you.
Do you still need help with your machine? If the instructions are unclear or something isn't working, please let me know before proceeding.
