lets give this a try….

Delete an NT Service

  • Open HiJackThis
  • Click on the "Config…" button on the bottom right
  • Click on the tab "Misc Tools"
  • click on "delete an NT service"
  • Copy and paste this in: ewido security suite control
  • Click "ok", then reboot

============================================================

Please re-open HiJackThis and scan. Check the boxes next to all the entries listed below.

O23 - Service: ewido security suite control - Unknown owner - C:\Program Files\ewido anti-malware\ewidoctrl.exe (file missing)


Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, then click Fix Checked. Close HiJackThis. Reboot into safe mode.

Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Please go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the following (if present):

ewido anti-malware

Please note any other programs that you dont recognize in that list in your next response

Using Windows Explorer (to get there right-click your Start button and go to "Explore"), please delete these folders (if present):

C:\Program Files\ewido anti-malware

After that, Reboot.

============================================================


If that doesn’t work it may be a borked uninstall so we can reinstall it and see if we can get a clean uninstall.


1.Download the Setup for the ewido Anti-Spyware Version 4 from this website:
http://filehippo.com/download_avg_antispyware/1331/
2.Run the downloaded installer and install the ewido Software on your System
Restart Windows.
3.After the restart and if there are any open ewido Windows or System Tray Icons, please close them.
4.Now locate the installation folder of the ewido Software in your program files folder (C:\program files\ewido anti-spyware) and run the uninstall.exe file to start the uninstallation process.
5. Now restart Windows again.

============================================================

Let me know if that works out :)

I downloaded the ewido, uninstalled it and tried to run avg again, but it's still saying there's ewido components. I searched again and deleted everything that was still there, rebooted and it's still picking up ewido somewhere. What's next??? This is sooo frustrating. Thanks for your help.

Hi cookjs,

I know it can get frustrating, but one way or the other we will get this done :thumbup: Try uninstalling and reinstalling the AVG since you removed all the traces of ewido, also lets do a couple scans to see if I can find it and try to reomove it.

Please download RegQuery by Noviciate to your desktop
  • Copy the following registry keypath by highlighting the text and pressing CTRL and C at the same time
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE
  • Double click RegQuery.exe to run the program
  • Paste the text you have copied using CRTL and V, into the textbox
  • Click the Query button
  • A Notepad file will open. Please paste the contents in your next reply
  • You may now close the RegQuery program.

============================================================

Uninstall List
  • Open HijackThis.
  • Look under System tools.
  • Click on the Open Uninstall Manager… button.
  • Click on the Save list… button.
  • It will prompt you to save. Save this log in a convenient location. By default it's named uninstall_list.txt.
  • Notepad will open. Please copy and paste the contents of this log in your next reply.

============================================================

START UP LIST
  • Open HiJackThis
  • Click on the tab "Misc Tools"
  • Check the 2 boxes next to the Box that says "Generate StartupList log"
  • Copy and paste the StartupList from the notepad into your next post

============================================================

Please post the above logs along with a fresh Hijackthis log, and lets see if we can get rid of it.

*Note* depending on the size of the logs, you may have to put them in more then one reply.
Post #34
I try these steps later. I need to get my kids to bed and need to take a break from this computer. Thanks for your help, I'll get back on in the morning.

There is nothng in the HiJackThis uninstall manager for Ewido and the "ewido security suite control" can not be located anywhere either. I will generate a HJT start up list for you to look over.

Post #37
Okay, so I figured it out!!! I used the registry editor to locate all remaining ewido files and deleted them. I was then able to install AVG and ran a quick san, I;n going to do all the rest of the wrap up steps you suggested them submit a HJT log for one final check. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
Post #38
So here is the HJT log. I ran scans and everything came up clean. Thanks so much for getting me through this. People that design the viruses need something else to do with their time! I appreciate all your help and will recommend this site to anyone having an issue w/ their computer.

Okay, so I figured it out!!! I used the registry editor to locate all remaining ewido files and deleted them. I was then able to install AVG and ran a quick san, I;n going to do all the rest of the wrap up steps you suggested them submit a HJT log for one final check. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!



thats what I was trying to do with the RegQuery instructions, but you beat me to it….. I'm glad we got it worked out :yeah: , it was a real pain. I gave you theses instructions back in post 23 but here they are again if you need them.

Please do the following 2 clean up steps, these will clean up all the junk we removed and reset your restore points for you. After that are some tips and tricks on staying safe.

  • Click on the CleanUp! button
  • Click Yes to begin the Cleanup process and remove these components, including this application.
  • You may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the Cleanup process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.

===============================================

This is my standard post for when you are clear - which you now are - or seem to be. Please advise me of any problems you still have. . I know you already have some of these items like antivirus (you just installed AVG) or firewall, but I like to include them anyway incase you ever need them or want to change them.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

[external image: Posted Image] 1.) Watch what you download!
Many freeware programs, and P2P programs like Grokster, Imesh, Kazaa and others are amongst the most notorious, come with an enormous amount of bundled spyware that will eat system resources, slow down your system, clash with other installed software, or just plain crash your browser or even Windows itself. If you insist on using a P2P program, please read This Article written by Mike Healan of Spywareinfo.com fame. It is an updated and comprehensive article that gives in-depth detail about which P2P programs are "safe" to use.

[external image: Posted Image] 2.) Go to Intenet Explorer > Tools > Windows Update > Product Updates, and install ALL High-Priority Security Updates listed. If you're running Windows XP, that of course includes the Service Pack 2! If you suspect your computer is infected with Malware of any type, we advise you to not install SP2 if you don't already have it. You can post a HijackThis log on our Forums to get free Expert help cleaning your machine. Once you are sure you have a clean system, it is highly recommended to install SP2 to help prevent against future infections.

It's important to always keep current with the latest security fixes from Microsoft.
Install those patches for Internet Explorer, and make sure your installation of Java VM is up-to-date. There are some well known security bugs with Microsoft Java VM which are exploited regularly by browser hijackers.

[external image: Posted Image] 3.) Open Intenet Explorer and go to Internet Options > Security > Internet, then press "Default Level", then OK. Now press "Custom Level." In the ActiveX section, set the first two options ("Download signed and unsigned ActiveX controls) to "Prompt", and ("Initialize and Script ActiveX controls not marked as safe") to "Disable".

Now you will be asked whether you want ActiveX objects to be executed and whether you want software to be installed.
Sites that you know for sure are above suspicion can be moved to the Trusted Zone in Internet Option > Security.

So why is ActiveX so dangerous that you have to increase the security for it?
When your browser runs an activex control, it is running an executable program. It's no different from doubleclicking an exe file on your hard drive.
Would you run just any random file downloaded off a web site without knowing what it is and what it does?

[external image: Posted Image] 4.) Install Javacool's SpywareBlaster

It will protect you from most spy/foistware in it's database by blocking installation of their ActiveX objects.

Download and install, download the latest updates, and you'll see a list of all spyware programs covered by the program (NOTE: this is NOT spyware found on your computer) Press "Enable All Protection", and you're done.
The spyware that you told Spywareblaster to set the "kill bit" for won't be a hazard to you any longer. Although it won't protect you from every form of spyware known to man, it is a very potent extra layer of protection.
Don't forget to check for updates every week or so.

[external image: Posted Image] 5.) Let's also not forget that Spybot Search & Destroy has the Immunize feature which works roughly the same way. Another feature within Spybot is the TeaTimer option. This option immediately detects known malicious processes wanting to start and terminates them. TeaTimer also detects when something wants to change some critical registry keys and gives you an option to allow them or not.

[external image: Posted Image] 6.) Microsoft now offers their own free malicious software blocking tool. Windows Defender improves Internet browsing safety by guarding over fifty (50) ways spyware can enter your PC.

[external image: Posted Image] 7.) Another excellent program by Javacool we recommend is SpywareGuard.
It provides a degree of real-time protection solution against spyware that is a great addition to SpywareBlaster's protection method.

[external image: Posted Image] 8.) 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. Another good hosts program is mvpshosts. This little program packs a powerful punch as it block 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.

*It is important to note that all of the above programs/files can be run simultaneously on your system. They will work together in layers, so to speak, to help protect your computer. However, the following suggestions are designed to only run one of each. It is not a good idea to run more than one firewall, and one anti-virus program. Running more than one of these at a time can cause system crashes, high system usage and/or conflicts with each other.*

[external image: Posted Image] 9.) It is critical that you use a firewall to protect your computer from hackers. We don't recommend the firewall that comes built in to Windows. It doesn't block everything that may try to get in, and the entire firewall is written to the registry. As various kinds of malware hack the Registry in order to disable the Windows firewall, it's far preferable to install one of the excellent third party solutions. Three good ones that are freeware to boot are ZoneAlarm, Kerio and Sygate

[external image: Posted Image] 10.) An Anti-Virus product is a necessity. There are many excellent programs that you can purchase. However, we choose to advocate the use of free programs whenever possible. Some very good and easy-to-use free A/V programs are AVG, Avast, and AntiVir. It's a good idea to set these to receive automatic updates so you are always as fully protected as possible from the newest virus threats.

NOTE: DO NOT install more than one anti-virus program. They will conflict, and provide less protection, not more.


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.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Thanks for letting us help you!
