I'm running a Dell Dimension 2400 – thru Verizon Fios w/XP Home SP2, IE7 and Yahoo homepage.
Use Zone Alarm Security Suite 7 (1/24/08) for both virus and spyware detection and Spybot S&D 1.4
w/upgrades and the following problems haven't been detected on any scan.
Two unfamiliar applications appeared on ZA program control (for access permission) and after
researching them, i've identified both as back door trojans.
Am wondering if someone will please help get rid of 'em.
Not sure what Else may be lurking … but these are the two entries referenced:
1. set14.tmp … this is said to be an alternate name for TVUAX.inf (trojan)
2. unvise32qt.exe … this is said to be an installer / back door trojan
Here are some of the computer actions i've noticed; shortcuts to Yahoo homepage, from both the
start menu and taskbar show a different address even though the homepage displays correctly …
the address has changed to: www.yahoo.com/?rs=1 … am not sure why this is happening although
usually (not always) when the House shortcut on homepage is clicked, the correct address appears
(www.yahoo.com) … when it doesn't, usually a re-start is performed … I have deleted and
re-created several shortcuts, only to have them become poluted again.
Then just yesterday, a different, longer address appeared for the homepage … and displays when
accessing the "Y" home page from my homepage (www.yahoo.com/?fr=fptb-msgr)
Responding to email has become nearly impossible … this info for example is being typed in
Notepad, then will be cut and paste (hopefully) into the post and with any luck, i can do it
quick enough or will be timed out and have to start fresh, from the WTT homepage (it doesn't
even return to the originating forum)
When in ANY internet application, mail, social pages, news, etc … the current page seems to
time-out and auto back page without recovery … responding to mail is impossible .. each
keystroke initiates a random page scroll … typing one or two sentences for a response is a
true challenge … At the same time, the screen will randomly scroll when no contact is made
with the mouse or keyboard.
If you are quick enough to hit send before the auto back-page occurs, outgoing mail seems to
process correctly, however, if you do not hit send quick enough, the auto back-page will lose
all info in the reply … a forward command advances to my inbox instead of the unfinished reply.
No tab appears in taskbar for the reply page and it appears … lost into oblivion.
Navigating my Myspace page is a joke, Ebay is almost untouchable (get notice IE has encountered
a problem and must be shut down - but not always)
Someone, P L E E Z throw me a rope, i'm drowning !!!
I have run the following prior to this post … Open hidden files, ATF Cleaner, CCleaner, Spybot
S&D, Malwarebytes, Zone Alarm and HijackThis … please note Spybot found one green entry (Log)
Activity: SchedLgU.Txt (i believe this is related to the scheduler) - Zone Alarm found nothing,
Malwarebytes scan and the HJT follows.
