i couldn't find the 'text file' and didn't know what the "Paste from Clipboard" thing did but everything else i did... anyway here are the results Incident Status Location Adware:Adware/SecurityError Not disinfected C:\!KillBox\interf.tlb Spyware:Cookie/Atlas DMT Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@atdmt[2].txt Spyware:Cookie/Mediaplex Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@mediaplex[1].txt Spyware:Cookie/QuestionMarket Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@questionmarket[1].txt Spyware:Cookie/Statcounter Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@statcounter[1].txt Spyware:Cookie/Toplist Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@toplist[1].txt Spyware:Cookie/Tribalfusion Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Cookies\lonely heart@tribalfusion[1].txt Potentially unwanted tool:Application/Processor Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Desktop\Stuff needed from GTG\smitRem\Process.exe Potentially unwanted tool:Application/Processor Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Desktop\Stuff needed from GTG\smitRem.exe[Process.exe] Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\a.class Adware:Adware/MoeMoney Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\bf.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\bq.class Adware:Adware/MoeMoney Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\bs.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\dc.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\dm.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\du.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\dx.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\i.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\j.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\p.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\q.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\s.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\t.class Adware:Adware/TopMoxie Not disinfected C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Code\u.class ALso note, i did remove all limewire stuff, except for the shortcuts... but yeh should be that thx for the help so far ^^ Keita |

Looking good
Lets remove spybot for the moment please, Open HJT put a check mark next to the following close all other open windows and click on the "Fix checked" O8 - Extra context menu item: LimeShop Preferences - file://C:\Program Files\LimeShop\System\Temp\limeshop_script0.htm Close out HJT and restart your computer Once back in normal mode run ATF again, then rescan with Active scan again post back what it finds along with a fresh HJT log |

QUOTE does this scan mean that killbot! is actually infecting my computer too? No Panda scan is finding the back ups that killbox has created, Just some minor cookies that ATF should take care of This one Potentially unwanted tool:Application/Processor Not disinfected C:\Documents and Settings\Lonely Heart\Desktop\Stuff needed from GTG\smitRem.exe[Process.exe] Is from smitrem which is fine you can go ahead and delete smitrem, Other then that everything looks fine How is the machine running now ? |
