Hi everyone!

I am trying to fix a friends computer and have finally got windows back up and running!
However after removing various spyware and the odd trojan i am left with Jimbutt, which sadly has me beaten! At present!

I have run, Ad-ware, Microsoft's Anti-spyware and spybot! They find it and say they have removed it but it just comes back again and again etc!

It is trying to connection to the interent even though i have it completly offline and i am receiving an error message, which i assume is disguising itself as a windows secuirty warning:
Error #317, informing me that the computer is corrupted with spyware virus and i can remove it by downloading a free spyware removal tool called AntiSPY, never heard of it, i wonder why!

So below is my friends Hijack This log and i hope one of you can help before i take a gun to it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I kind of think she might be a little upset at me shooting her fairly new Tosh laptop though!

Hello Jamesy and welcome to Geeks to Go.

Before we get underway, you may wish to print these instructions for easy reference during the fix, although please be aware that many of the required URLs are hyperlinks in the red names shown on your screen. Part of the fix will require you to be in Safe Mode, which may not allow you to access the Internet, or my instructions!

You do have an infection and also a re-direct pointing to Telekom Malaysia Berhad in Kuala Lumpur; is that legitimate? Now, for the rest of it and if you are ready, let’s get fixing!

To start please download the following programmes, we will run them later. Please save them to a place that you will remember, I suggest the Desktop:
CWShredder (the download icon is on the right-hand side of the page)
CCleaner

Now please install CWShredder, and run it. Click Check For Update, then Fix and then OK followed by Next, let it fix everything it asks about.

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

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,Search = http://bigbr.cc?u=2036 (obfuscated)
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,SearchURL = http://bigbr.cc?u=2036 (obfuscated)
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer,Search = http://bigbr.cc?u=2036 (obfuscated)
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://www.jimbutt.com/stuffs/

Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, then click Fix Checked. Please now reboot into safe mode. Here's how:

There is almost certainly bound to be some junk (leftover bits and pieces) on your system that is doing nothing but taking up space. I would recommend that you run CCleaner. Install it, update it, check the default setting in the left-hand pane, Analyze, Run Cleaner. You may be fairly surprised by how much it finds.

Post back a fresh HijackThis log and I will take another look.




"Edit,
As there has been no reply from the original poster this topic is now closed,
Should you have any further problems please create a new Topic,

Thanks "
