So far no major problems have happened yet but when I came back to my computer I found the work offline message on the screen. I canceled it and then decided to look throught the computer and found three prefetchs that were not there before they were CMD.exe MSNI.EXE and XVFPVRD.COM I then checked the system32 folder and found three files had been added. I could find two of the three based on modifed dates but not the last one. The files were Lovefly.dll and smart.dll they both are listed as some FrameBuffer display driver. When I tried to delete them it stopped me saying they were in use. I ran ad aware but that didn't help and then ran spybot.
After running spybot it found 3 registry files called W32.agent.pz or something like that. The problem is the scan wont finish it will get halfway through and will then say error checking and stop.I never had this problem before and no matter how many times I retried it would always stop at some random place. I just updated it now so if this is the result of some new update glitch could I just reinstall it and just not download whatever update causes it. Even though it doesn't finish I was able to remove the three entries shown I then looked up the virus and found instructions on running something called sdfix so I ran that and it didn't change anything. So I went into safe mode tried spybot again and it failed then went and tried to delete the two dlls I had found. I was able to delete Lovefly.dll but not smart.dll and I still dont know what the third file is either.
After looking around the system32 folder I then found other files such as framebuf.dll that listed itself as being the same thing FrameBuffer but these files were listed as having the default creation date of 8/18/2001. Are these files legitament and the spyware I have is masking its two files to look like framebuffer or is the spyware advanced enough to create files with fake dates? The reason im sure Lovefly.dll and smart.dll are virus related is that both had the creation time of 8:50 which is the same time as the one on msni.exe prefetch (CMD.exe and XVFPVRD.COM had 8:46). The hijackthis log has smart.dll listed as winlogon but I havent done anything to take care of it yet.Also after the computer has been rebooted alg.exe has started to run at startup which it has never done before so I suspected it has something to do with the spyware trying to access something which would explain the do you want to work offline message I found earlier.
