Hi TonyG123,

Make hidden/system files and folders visible:
Click Start -> My Computer
Select the Tools menu, click Folder Options and select the View tab
Under the Hidden files and folders heading SELECT Show hidden files and folders
UNCHECK the Hide extensions for known file types option
UNCHECK the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option
Click Yes to confirm and press OK

Use Windows Explorer (right-click Start, select Explore) to find and delete the following folders (if present):

C:\Program Files\Easy SpyRemover
C:\Program Files\AntiSpywareShield
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Messenger Plus!
C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live

If you have trouble finding or deleting any, please let me know in your next response.

Next please do an online scan with Kaspersky:
Open Kaspersky Online Scanner in Internet Explorer using this link:
http://www.kaspersky.com/kos/eng/partner/d…kavwebscan.html
  • Click Accept and the web scanner will begin to load
  • If a yellow warning bar appears at the top of the browser, click it and choose Install ActiveX Control
  • You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, click Install
  • If you are prompted about another ActiveX control called Kaspersky Online Scanner GUI part then allow it to be installed also.
  • The program will launch and then begin downloading the latest definition files:
  • Once the files have been downloaded click on Next and then Scan Settings
  • In the scan settings make that the following are selected:
    • Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
    Extended
    • Scan Options:
    Scan Archives
    Scan Mail Bases
  • Click OK
  • Now under select a target to scan:Select My Computer
  • The program will start to scan your system.
  • Once the scan is complete, click on the Save Report As… button, change Save as type: to Text file and save the file to your desktop as Kaspersky.txt

Then, make a new main.txt with DSS. If you need to download the program again the link is here:
http://www.techsupportforum.com/sectools/Deckard/dss.exe
  • Make sure DSS.exe is on your Desktop
  • Press the Start->Run, copy/paste the following command into the box and press OK:

    "%userprofile%\desktop\dss.exe" /config

  • A configuration box will appear, make sure all boxes are checked in the Main Log section, then un-check everything in the Extra Log section and press Scan!

Once complete, please post the Kaspersky report and a new DSS main.txt report.

Hi TonyG123,

Backup Your Registry:
  • Download ERUNT to your Desktop (right-click the link, select Save Target As…, select your Desktop and press Save)
  • Double-click erunt-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program
  • When asked if you wish to Create an ERUNT entry in the Startup folder say No
  • ERUNT should start automatically, if it does not then click Start->All Programs->ERUNT->ERUNT
  • OK all the prompts to back up your registry to the default location.
Note: if it is necessary to restore the registry, open the backup folder and start ERDNT.exe

Download secprov.reg to your Desktop (right-click the link, select Save Target As…, select your Desktop and press Save)
Locate secprov.reg on your Desktop, it should look like this:[external image: Posted Image]
Right-click it and select Merge, when it asks if you want to merge with the registry, click Yes.
You can then delete secprov.reg

————————————————————————

Next press Start->Run, copy/paste the following command (it's one long command) into the box and press OK:

cmd /c reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\currentcontrolset\control\securityproviders /v securityproviders >> "%userprofile%\desktop\check.txt


A file called check.txt should appear on your Desktop, please post the contents with your next response.

————————————————————————

Once complete, please post the check.txt output and a new HijackThis log. Also, let me know how your computer is running now.

Hi TonyG123,

That looks good, some important final steps:

You should now delete dss.exe from your Desktop, also delete this folder:

C:\Deckard


Re-hide hidden/system files and folders:
Click Start -> My Computer
Select the Tools menu, click Folder Options and select the View tab
Under the Hidden files and folders heading SELECT Do not show hidden files and folders
CHECK the Hide extensions for known file types option
CHECK the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option
Press OK

Create a new, clean System Restore point which you can use in case of future system problems:
Press Start->All Programs->Accessories->System Tools->System Restore
Select Create a restore point, then Next, type a name like All Clean then press the Create button and once it's done press Close

Now remove old, infected System Restore points:
Next click Start->Run and type cleanmgr in the box and press OK
Ensure the boxes for Recycle Bin, Temporary Files and Temporary Internet Files are checked, you can choose to check other boxes if you wish but they are not required.
Select the More Options tab, under System Restore press Clean up… and say Yes to the prompt
Press OK and Yes to confirm

If the above went well, I think your machine is now clean of malware :) here are some tips to help you keep it that way:

I recommend you consider installing a Personal Firewall program. Even if you are behind a NAT router, I recommend you use firewall software as it will improve the security of your computer by monitoring and controlling outbound connections to the internet as well as inbound. There are various free packages available, one I can recommend is Comodo:

A tutorial on firewalls to help you get started:

I recommend you install a custom hosts file such as MVPS HOSTS. This custom hosts file effectively blocks a wide range of unwanted ads, banners, 3rd party Cookies, 3rd party page counters, web bugs, and many hijackers.
For information on how to download and install, please read this tutorial by WinHelp2002
Note: Be sure to follow the instructions to disable the DNS Client service before installing a custom hosts file.
Also: subscribe to the mailing list to get update notifications.

Please take care when downloading programs. One of the easiest ways to be infected is to download freeware/shareware programs which come laden with malware - this includes allowing websites to install browser plug-ins or ActiveX controls. Before downloading, it is crucial to check whether the source is reputable.
One way to check is to use McAfee SiteAdvisor. Copy the domain name into the space provided and SiteAdvisor will give you a report on the website which can help you decide if it is safe. They also have a toolbar for IE and Firefox which adds this functionality to your browser.

Download and install the free version of WinPatrol. This program protects your computer in a variety of ways and will work well with your existing security software. Have a look at this tutorial to help you get started with the program.

You're very welcome :)

In this thread we used ERUNT and MalwareBytes Antimalware, both of which can be removed if you wish via Start->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs however I recommend you keep MalwareBytes and scan with it regularly as it is an excellent program and free.

If you have any further questions please let me know.
