ok i think i did everything you told me to do, except for the bit with "Open the text file with these instructions in it, and copy the file names below to the clipboard by highlighting them and pressing Control-C:"

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

Run ATF again that will get rid of the cookies again

Reboot to safe mode and delete the following Folder
C:\Program Files\LimeShop

Reboot to normal mode and post back a fresh HJT log please

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

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 ?

yo don everything is working fine!!

the spywarequake problem was fixed long ago when i did the scans in safe mode last time

other than that, nothing else is seems to be hurting my computer

thanx alot man

i'll contribute when i get my credit card >< lol

but also, is there ANY way to be able to block spywares forever? i just find it a hassle to have to keep fixing my computer's health everytime i enter any website...

if there isn't, well i'll just try live on ^^

thx for everything so far, i'll try to get less problems from now on ^^

Great news Keita thumbsup.gif

Please use the following suggestion to help prevent reinfection


Download the following program, For keeping crap off your system to begin with
Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests. Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox. Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
Download Spyware Blaster

Keep AD-Aware. and Spybot 1.4 handy, Check them for updates prior to running and run them weekly
Same with your Anti Virus,

For an added check run an online virus scan, you can use one of the 2 below,
TrendMicro's HouseCall
ActiveScan

Be sure and give the Temp folders a cleaning out now and then as well, A handy tool to do this
Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
    Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
    Under Main choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
If you use Firefox browser
    Click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
    NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
If you use Opera browser
    Click Opera at the top and choose: Select All
    Click the Empty Selected button.
    NOTE: If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt.
Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program.
For Technical Support, double-click the e-mail address located at the bottom of each menu.

Remeber to Check Windows for updates

Probably a good time to create a new restore point See Here for XP

See Here for ME Name it clean or something like that,

To learn more about how to protect yourself while on the internet read this article by Tony Klien: So how did I get infected in the first place?
